My husband is an insulin dependent diabetic, and I am insulin resistant hypoglycemic. We have been eating low carb for more than 20 years. He has lost almost a hundred pounds since first being diagnosed with diabetes, and his blood sugar is now under excellent control. We discovered that the standard “diabetic diet” didn’t work for either of us. For a while we followed the Atkins diet, and later we developed our own way of eating that works for us.Now it isn’t a diet...it is a way of life. I have managed to convert almost all of our old familiar “comfort foods” to low carb.Look for my full cookbook: That's Low Carb?! by Sharon Wertz on Amazon and at other fine booksellersIf you have any questions, feel free to email me at sbwertz@gmail.comWatch my website for new recipes!http://lowcarbliving.webs.com/Sharon Wertz

Introduction
Almost all the ingredients for recipes in this book that cannot be found in your local supermarket are available online from NETRITION.COM. I have no connection with NETRITION.COM, but they are where I have purchased most of my low carb ingredients for many years, mostly because of their large selection and low shipping cost.

Everyone knows you can lose weight on a low carb diet. However, many people eventually gain the weight back! Why? Most people simply cannot face the idea of eating such a limited diet for the rest of their lives!
Carbs begin to creep back into the diet. And if you don't keep the carbs below your own personal tolerance level, a low carb diet becomes a weigh GAINING diet because by definition low carb is high fat and high calorie.
