Keep it up, refund! :)

I am one of a number of type II diabetics that have been cured by the FTS lifestyle.
I did not get to the point I needed insulin shots. But I was taking Metformin (Glucophage).
I believe that I would be on insulin by now if not for Doug and FTS!

God Bless FTS and Doug!!! :) :) :)
What you do today is what matters!

Keep up the good work Refund!! 

It is totally possible for your doctor to take you off your meds completely.  Mine did for me.  I was taking 3 different meds including insulin.  Now nothing.  I have been able to keep my sugar readings between 85-125 thanks to FTS.  I feel better than I have in a long time.  You can do it!!!  ;D ;D

Welcome Refund.

I love your forum name!

It's amazing how many of us have been tortured by carbs all these years and just didn't know it. Thankfully we do now!!

Welcome Refund!  And keep on keeping on!  I bet it doesn't take you 50# to be off your insulin!  Your doctor is gonna be amazed next time you go in to get checked - the difference will be amazing.

It's wonderful to hear that excellent report, Refund! :)
Sounds to me that FTS is curing another type II diabetic!

One of the beauties of FTS is that if you mess up, just get back on board and you'll be OK.
But the less you veer off course, the sooner you'll arrive at that thin new you! ;)
What you do today is what matters!
