I just wanted to say a quick thank you! I have been reading some other stories and how you all have handled things and it doesn't seem as scary. I think a lot of the unknown was scary and just...
Thanks Lanie, I will remember that about the carbs! Honestly before all of this, I thought it was just sugar that you had to stay away from. I'm now starting to read labels and really pay attention...
Thanks to both of you! I can't wait to get in to see my Dr. in 2 weeks. I just want to know once and for all and be told exactly what I can and can't eat. I still have so many questions. And I think...
