Welcome to the FTS family, Evelyn!!! :) :) :) :) :) :)

I've been living FTS since August 2010.
I'm a member of the "turtle club"... Slow and steady wins the race! ;)

When I started, I was type II diabetic with high blood pressure and high cholesterol.
I was taking FIVE different medications for these conditions. I was NOT in good shape!

Now, I'm not effected by any of these conditions and take ZERO meds!!! ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
This is all thanks to the FTS lifestyle!

I'm healthier now than I've been in over 3 decades!
And intend on staying that way by living the FTS lifestyle for the rest of my days.

FTS literally saved my life, and I'm eternally grateful to Doug for sharing it! :) :) :)

I used to go to Olive Garden a lot when I didn't know about the FTS book, but now I try to avoid it. It is such a temptation to have those free bread sticks. You were very smart on your choices, Congrats!

Thanks TooSweet!

I have been reading some posts and there are tons of material to follow! Recipes, guides, etc. I have followed the book since a month ago, but honestly I haven't been following all the instructions, I know that I have to stick to it if I want to see results. Let's see how it works.

Welcome Evelyn and Don.  I have been living FTS since September.  For me, one of the best things about this lifestyle is the fact that we don't eliminate foods, we find delicious, low carb alternatives.  That way you never feel deprived.  No need to binge.  Also, since it is a lifelong program, you don't stop at the end.  In the past I have been successful in following "diets" but always went back to my old habits after reaching my goal and regained the weight (and more, of course).

This forum is da bomb... You will find the people here very supportive, knowledgeable and just plain nice.  And if you need tough love, they will give it to -- without judging.
