Re: Weight Loss Strategies?

[Guest guest]

is it common though for people to have a hard time losing weight once

diagnosed with diabetes? i originally lost thirty pounds...gained ten back

and now do not seem to be able to lose any more.

are there suppliments to take or something to help? i have cut carbs down

alot, but not out completely...i need some it seems. i do not eat nearly as

much as i did before diagnosis.i take chromium picolinate and soya lechithin

wihich i have heard is good to get rid of some fat. i use cinnamon in my

diet which is said to help metabolism/blood sugar. don't think i can or

should go total carb-less, and wonder what is up.

thanks for any info. i am new here but was on list a year or so ago. type 2

for almost 2 yrs that i know of...probably longer tho.

In today's NYTimes (you can get it on the internet) in the Dining

section Nigella Lawson gave three receipes that could easily be called

lowcarb (though she didn't call them that). They're for a baked ricotta

tart (crustless) which she serves with roasted cherry tomatoes and also

(for when the weather is warmer!) for Vietnamese crab coleslaw. These

are definitely keepers!

In order to get the NYTimes on the web you do need to register...but

it's free so definitely a real bargain. On days like today when (because

of ice storm) I'm stuck at home and can't read it at my favorite coffee

shop where I go after gym (not going today because of dangerous weather

conditions, like black ice) it's nice to be able to read it online.

Although I do prefer holding the paper in my hands

Vicki,

They all sound great! I'll check them out :-) I was going to quit

getting Gourmet Magazine, until I realized that many of their recipes are

either low carb or they can be re-worked to be low carb. Today, I was

looking through one of the older ones and saw a recipe for smoked-salmon and

cream cheese frittata that looked low carb. Here it is on their website,

www.epicurious.com, though I think I would change the 1/2 cup of milk to

cream:
