Question for LowCarbers f2^O9#kY1ueLd,FNdodV5


This is mostly directed at diabetics and those who do low-carb diets because of their health, rather than just wishing to lose weight.

I have a condition that I've had since I was a teenager, and it has many complicated side effects on my health. Anyway, recently a doctor told me that it may be related to insulin resistance, though I am not diabetic, and said that in cases like mine metformin-glucophage has worked in restoring normalcy to women with my condition. However, it is contra-indicated for pregnant and nursing women, so it's not a possibility for quite some time. It also has some side effects that can be pretty serious, and using a high protein diet in conjunction with (this was the best option, then it was diet alone, then medicine alone) the medication was indicated to be the best way to combat the problem, and even showed promise for allowing the patient to wean from the medication and offset some of the side effects of the drug.

Fresh fig recipes 1755
I couple of years ago (!) at the 2003 Midwest Cookin I had the most amazing Roasted figs with lavender-infused honey and Gorgonzola cheese!!! The orginal recipe is this: Roasted Figs...

I was interested in changing some of my diet stuff now, rather than waiting until I could get on the medicine, if that even turns out to be what I should do. However, I am not really interested in it for the weight loss, though that is nice. Is it really feasible to jump to a later stage in, say, the South Beach diet, or even the maintenance diet, or would that negate the health benefits? I'll be talking to my doctor about it, but I was interested in some input from people who actually live with the diet.

Thank you!
