I didn't lose any thing because of the medication I was on for the pain in my ankle I seem to be coming down sense I have finished it I now have a cold I will wait till The cold is gone and I will start over in Phrase 1 I only have 4 lbs to go

Thank you so much you have really given me insight into this thing.I was doing the south beach last week when I developed pain and swelling in my ankle and could barely walk I went to the doctor and he gave me two shots one morfine and anothe for infection and some pills to take for a week I have now finished the pills I still have pain the medication took me upto 226 from 218 then my blood sugar rose to 4 73 now my blood sugar in down and I am at 221 this morning and still haven't lost the 4 lbs I've beentrying to lose for the last 4 months .my sister talked me into going on and have the surgery because of the diabites .I decided to wait until the medication is out of my system and then start back on the south beach I am going to go to that web site .you are such a nice caring and help ful person God bless you I don't switch over to Aetna until Nov .and It becomes effective until Jan . God bless you with the rest of your weight loss Jazz:rolleyes2:
