No, I just feel the blood sugar drop. I will stick w/ it and see how it goes.

I DO

feel alot better today.....not sure if it's b/c of this a.m.'s oatmeal or if

I just got over the hump of the initial phase.

If it's the latter, that's what the snacks are for, so that our blood

sugar doesn't drop too low between meals. I find that protein snacks

help that a lot, some cheese, some yogurt, some nuts, some peanut

butter, etc.

The oatmeal is not a good idea on phase 1.

> Hi! My name is , I'm 28, married w/ 2 children ages 4 and

2. I started out at 176 lbs and want to get down to atleast 155

lbs. I started phase 1 on Monday and have been doing great as far as

not being hungry, but my blood sugar just has been plummeting!!! So

my question is this.....can I add a couple 'good' carbs a day and

still expect good results? This a.m. I made a bowl of regular

oatmeal in hopes of giving myself a boost.
