[QUOTE="lizdeluz, post: 1060505, member: 32108"] I think that posting this issue was an important first step. I know what this problem is like and have also struggled with it myself in the past. It can be quite difficult to follow a diet that's good for you, especially if everyone else is eating stuff that will be bad for you. It can be a vicious chicken-egg cycle too: you eat the wrong stuff, you feel depressed and guilty about it, you then comfort-eat. Sharing the experience on the Dafne course will help, you'll probably find you're not alone with it! Another contributing factor for type 1 is that if you go hypo sometimes, you panic-eat the nearest stuff to hand. I try to deal with this by training myself to use glucose tablets as 'medicine' for the hypo. Since I don't enjoy eating them, I tend not to overdose on them. Personally, I found that doing the Low Carb High Fat diet was a godsend and got rid of cravings completely.
