Hi, I am new here and my dr put me on the low glycemic index diet due to my fasting blood work showing me as being a pre diabetic, I have been following this diet for 3 weeks, I don't go back for bloodwork for a couple of more weeks, however, I know that I am losing weight due to the diet and have had to buy 2 different size pants. Sooooo I am hoping that it is working for me. I also have hypothyroidism...wich always mad losing weight a challenge until now.
