Anyway, the first charm I bought is a little turtle, as homage to Letha. When I look at it, I am constantly inspired by her mantra: slow and steady wins the race.
Yeah to all of us.

I've been reading through your posts, and this seems like a wonderful, supportive thread! I joined McD in late October, but have been doing MM for 7 days (this is day eight). And I've seen excellent results. I would love to be a part of this group if you'll have me!
I'm a 41 (almost 42, my birthday is this month) mother of 3 children. I've been struggling with my weight since my first child was born 19 years ago. I was diagnosed with T2 diabetes five years ago, and recently have seen my numbers jump up near 200 fasting. In an effort to avoid going on more meds, my husband suggested I do McDougall which I had done when I was newly diagnosed, but not 100%. Now I'm in completely. In the week that I've been on MM, I've lost 6 pounds and my bs is between 135-140 fasting the last 3 days. I want to lose over 100 pounds and plan to stick to this 100% until that happens. I'm worried about my birthday and the holidays, but I know with support and committment, I can do it.
