    Over 30 Pounds Weight Loss - Congratulations Becky Walters!

    A few comments from Becky...

    My name is Becky Walters and I was diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes on December 31, 2010.  I started 2011 with the realization that I needed to make some serious changes. 

    I began using the menus, and BOOM my blood sugar levels were steady and I lost weight. 

    My A1C level is down.  My doctor is pleased.  Feeling healthy is FANTASTIC!

    A quick workout is better than no workout at all!
