When my husband was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes and high blood pressure, we went on a hunt for information. My friend told us about losing weight on the Zone and about its beneficial properties to the blood sugar problems lots of people have. So we bought THREE of The Zone books and went to work on "fixing" this diabetes thing.
It was the hardest thing my husband has ever done, but he gave up that bowl of ice cream at night, and all the candy and we WROTE DOWN EVERYTHING that went in his mouth. It took me a while to understand the eating system. I learned to cook differently, he learned to LIVE differently, and it worked.
Four months later he was 80 pounds lighter, and his doctor took him off ALL the medications and told him he is no longer a diabetic and that his high blood pressure has vanished. The Zone is saving his life! Don't give up. It’s never too late to get in The Zone!
