Hello, I am new to BSD. My husband and I started three weeks ago and I have lost 13lbs. He is pre diabetic and has lost 18lbs. We aren’t at all hungry! My husband’s doctor wanted to prescribe statins but we decided to give the BSD approach a serious try before he went down that route. I spend a long time each weekend planning all the menus and shopping lists but it seems to be paying off. I am looking forward to using this Forum.
