[QUOTE="Daphne917, post: 831652, member: 124172"] Roymo don't think of it as your food choices being poor because for years we have been led to believe that 'all fat is bad and all fruit is good' which, in the normal scheme of things, is probably correct. However we have a condition that turns this theory onto it's head and we have to think the opposite. People at work have been commenting on my weight loss and ask me what diet I'm on - they seem quite bemused when I tell them that all I've done is cut down on my carbs inc bread and potatoes, stopped eating most fruit except berries and ditched low fat for full fat inc milk, yoghurt and butter. Re the snacks if you have access to a fridge and like Greek yogurt do what I do which is the night before take some frozen berries and zap them in the microwave for a minute or two until they are mushy, put them in a container and then add them to your yoghurt when you want to eat it. I also have chocolate coated rice cakes ( gasps from other forum members) however I have tested them 3 times and can eat them OK but many diabetics will not be able to due to the carb content.
