Dear Cary:
I was staying at a hotel in Niagara on the Lake on the weekend and my wife and I were enjoying the Breakfast buffet of toast, waffles with syrup, Home fries some eggs and bacon as much as you want , when my wife saw your article on the success of Doug Varrieur.
I too suffer from onset diabetes 2 , high blood pressure and high cloistral, since I was 40 now I am 67 and weight 220 lbs at 5’8 My ideal weight should be 165 lbs but the doc says he would be happy if I could bring it down to 180 . I would really like to get it to below 200 as a start
I have been up and down the scale 210 -230 for over 20 yrs
I am on medication for diabetes but not insulin injections and supposed to be watching my diet. Well it hasn’t been happing. I do have a sweet tooth and more so since I gave up alcohol over 8 years ago
My portions are bigger than they should be and I eat after 8pm my snacks are cookies and even ice cream
The shocker came last week when my doctor suggested that he is going to recommend nightly injections of insulin. I became somewhat depressed but wish to do something about my sweet intake and my weight
I would really like a copy or Doug’s book as I feel if he can do it so can I
Not having read his book, yet I still feel that he is a great inspiration and I hope that he has made contact with the diabetes society of Canada
Kind Regards
Larry
