FAV. NO-NO FOODS - Coke addict!! potatoes of any shape and choc. cake
WHY DID YOU CHOOSE SUGAR BUSTERS? - I have been reading about the various "diets" and this one seemed to make sense to me. There is a strong history of age onset diabetes in my family so I want to try to head that off. I also am on meds for BP, cholesterol, asthma and unknown allergies. I recently started having severe allergic reactions - Dr. thinks is may be my BP medicine, so I feel that I need to get my weight down so hopefully I can get off some of this medication.
ANYTHING ELSE? - This isn't going to be easy for me. When I decided that I was going to do this and went shopping for the book, I actually started feeling panicky knowing that I would have to give up Coke (can't stand the diet). Now, that's bad! Don't know if it is the sugar or caffeine, but either way, that much addiction is not good.

HEIGHT - 5'6"
FAV. EXERCISE - elliptical trainer, body trek, and weight lifting at the gym. I LOVE hiking in the mountains with my dog on the weekends. It's great mental health time as well as very physical.
FAV. NO-NO FOODS - potato anything. Baked potatoes, fried potatoes, mashed potatoes, garlic potatoes, baby red potatoes, hash browns, potato chips. But my biggest weakness of all is a good microbrewed beer ~ preferably a stout or a porter. With some potato chips. http://www.3fatchicks.com/ubb//lol.gif
WHY DID YOU CHOOSE SUGAR BUSTERS? - I was diagnosed with Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) in Feb. 99. High insulin levels in the body cause ovarian cysts to form, which are very painful when they rupture. My ob/gyn recommended Sugarbusters as a way to keep my insulin levels down and prevent diabetes, which is a 40% possibility with PCOS.
ANYTHING ELSE? - I made down to 146 in December of 1999 and maintained for 4 months. Then, high GI foods crept back into my diet. Then I started exercising less frequently. Then sugar crept back into my diet. Then, winter came and my pants didn't fit me anymore! After a summer of wearing comfortable sundresses, I couldn't hide it any longer. I recommitted to this way of life in January and am back to being an exercise addict!

WHY DID YOU CHOOSE SUGAR BUSTERS? – I started low glycemic eating in November, 1999 with Montignac’s “Eat Yourself Slim” and lost 10 lbs in about 5 weeks. I remained at same weight for about seven months by continuing with this woe before I started to lose again. I’ve since lost another 19 lbs.

GOAL WEIGHT - 128 - short term 135
HEIGHT - 5'5"
FAV. EXERCISE - Walking outside; swimming
FAV. NO-NO FOODS - chocolate, pizza, pretzels
WHY DID YOU CHOOSE SUGAR BUSTERS? - WW is just not working anymore. I've read the SB book and the Suzanne Somers book and the principals are appealing to me. Also, the involvement and success stories on this board are extremely compelling!! Good for all you guys!
ANYTHING ELSE? - This has just got to be the answer for me. What makes me a bit nervous was that I was never an abuser of the "illegal" foods - so I hope this change is enough to make a difference. My biggest challenge is managing this diet while cooking for my family - sometimes I wind up making 4 different meals, even though I incorporate bits and pieces of each into the others. After 6 hours at work, or 6 hours dragging the kids to hockey practice, sometimes it's just easier to order pizza.

My diet consisted of high GI carbs, as I thought I needed them, but not running enough to offset my diet. I didn't run or exercise much after the marathon and continued with poor eating habits, so I gained quite a bit of weight. :rolleyes:
This site is an ENORMOUS amount of support for me. My husband even comments that I am in a better mood when I have visited here. He is right. It is good to know that others understand what I am experiencing and the support they can offer is very, very valuable.

FAV. EXERCISE - Jazzercise and chasing the kids around
FAV. NO-NO FOODS - Gee, Since I started SB, I don't crave the junk all that much any more. So, I guess, Annie's Mac'n'cheese in excess would be a fav no-no. And the Valrhona chocolate in excess.
WHY DID YOU CHOOSE SUGAR BUSTERS? - Doc recommended it because I had elevated blood sugar. It's so much easier than I thought it would be. At first when we saw what we would have to give up, I thought, No way. But now it's the only way.
ANYTHING ELSE? - Joe started SB with me and the creep has lost 35 pounds to my 16. I know, I know, read the chapter about why women have a harder time than men losing weight, but still….
PICTURE LINKS - I'll have to get with Deb about this.
