    I am using the pressure cooker. It turned out pretty good. I have had ground buffalo before, makes a great meatloaf. Trying to eat a diet with more grass fed meat, both red and white. My wife and I were vegetarians for many years, and vegan for several, but due to my wife's diabetes, have added meat back into our diet. I have lost about 33 pounds, mostly by cutting down on the carbs. She has her blood sugar levels down into a very normal range.

    I'm impressed that you've lost weight giving up your vegetarian ways. My sister had to reconvert before she wasted away. I'm glad the diet helps with your wife's illness, my nephew is diabetic, it's tough on a ten year old.

    I'm on an Atkins' diet list, and several people report that they are diabetics who no longer need to worry about symptoms nor take medication.

    The medical world doesn't admit that diabetes can be cured, but it does appear that a significant alteration in the progress of the disease is possible.

    Atkins, by the way doesn't consist of perpetual slabs of fried meat and eggs, not when done by the book. There has to be a lot of fresh vegetation, and I do mean a lot, and I do mean fresh.

    Losing 12 inches off my waist is what brought me to making and wearing kilts. as I simply could not keep up with the replacement of clothing with more permanent shaping and sizing built in.

    I have a friend of mine that reversed her diabetes by becoming a vegetarian after much research. I like meat though! So I thought your atkins diet was the opposite, but your statement about alot of fresh vegies confirmed my suspicion! Keep it up!
