wow Mouseissue, the numbers speak for themselves ...yeah for you! 
Yep a friend called me to turn Dr. Oz on today, he had a low carb man on there and Dr. Oz was saying it was not a good diet to be on, but I said I refuse to believe it and I WILL NOT BE DISCOURAGED NOW, as I am doing so well on this new FTS plan.

Thanks Suz! I know so many people that have diabetis between church and my husband's family, I cannot wait to tell them all about the Fat To Skinny way.
My hubby, age 60, had to have open heart surgery and 3 by pass last year, his heart doctor said it was his uncontroled sugar that had damaged his arteries so badly, he took his sugar when he got in this evening and it was 85, we were amazed, as what I eat he eats haha so he too is eating this way.

I have to share this. I am not diabetic,yet, but my husband is, and I often tests my blood to see how I am doing, been pretty borderline and at times it has been high as 150plus but than the next morning I would take it when I got up it would be near 100plus. This afternoon, after 10 days on fts program, my sugar reading was 86, I have not seen and 86 reading in 10 years, so wow what a blessing!

I think I am finally getting the hang of how this forum works! I had never been on a forum before so if I do anything wrong please tell me. 
One thing I know I got to get off here and get some houseword done, haha as all I have done since I found this is 'study' it out for motivation and ideals. I have been checking out all the websites and products you all talk about. I go through your post and the recipes and write down types of foods you all mention that I did not know about than find out what they are and where I can get them. The dixie diner really has the stuff, been looking at that today. I had no clue what edamame was or beanit butter when Doug mentioned it, now I know and plan to get some.
Just totally awesome...thanks so much ya all for making this available. Now to try to get some cleaning done;)))))

Doug and Umpa You all are so awesome, I have no clue where you find the time to dedicate to replying to "all" of us. My friend said it is probably just someone else you all hire sitting at a computer somewhere, but I told her I do not think so I think it is REALLY Doug and really Umpa.
I made notes of what you mentioned and yep I can do that for sure!

Congratulations Amber, Renee and Jan on the pounds off!!!!! Go girls go!
I am on day 10 today and truly amazed how great this is working, when I weighed last Sunday I had 6 off, I was putting away a 5 lb. bag of sugar
( not for me, I use it only to make hummingbird food) I thought wow how heavy that bag of sugar was and that now that was gone from me! I will weigh every Sunday and report in.
I am so excited it is like I want to buy every one I know that needs to loose weight Doug's book. I been telling everyone on FB how this is working and referring them to this website.

HAHA 5:30 Umpa come on up we will sit you a plate! It was good, even my hubby loves the mashed califlower, it is so good. This time I put real butter in them and Helmans mayo, they were awesome. I have never enjoyed cooking, but I am actually enjoying cooking this way as I know it is helping me to loose weight not making me gain more.
Umpa, do you have a recipe for sloppy joes, that we could like put in our wraps?

I Hear you Doug and Umpa and I am determined to come back and report to all of you pounds lost and how well I did. Thanks so much for your help!
Let's see this is day 9 for me and so far so good yeah, I have never been so thrilled about a 'way of living' and how well it is working for me. I cannot wait to weigh in on Sunday.
I too love green tea, hot or cold, I never did put sugar in my tea, I am real happy with it unsweetened. I enjoy plain club soda too.
Tonight I am cooking steaks, califlower mashed and salad. yum
