Hello tburley1

Glad to hear from you. Sorry if I was confusing about my daughter's asthma and meds. What I meant was that I have noticed a big change in my allergies going away since I went lowcarb. I read the chapter in Atkins about yeast overgrowth and it was a lightbulb moment for me. I hope the same might be for her. I would never take her off her meds or blame the weight gain for them. Hope that makes sense. Had to take her to the dr today for strep thoat and forgot to ask about the lc'ing!!! Kinda tired because I was up all night with her.

I totally know how you feel about he bullying thing. I volunteer a lot in my kids classrooms and the girls are ruthless!!! Not only is my daughter overweight but super smart so they take turns!!! Not all of the girls are like that of course she does have a couple of great friends. It just doesn't seem fair. My son is in 5th grade and is 80 pounds and everything comes easy for him. I must say he is very good to my daughter.

congrats to your son on his weight loss!
