@MrsA2 Thank you, just thank you. Last night I added this forum to my gratitude list.The support and encouragement I receive here makes a real difference to my journey. My mental and emotional health is honestly improved through the "pats on the head" and lets me feel I'm doing okay. I was at a lecture years ago regarding the value of praise and how children recognise false praise (One should say you tried hard rather than that's great) For the first time I have a real understanding of that. When someone says something encouraging on here my eyes fill up with tears. I wonder if people know when they respond the profound impact an encouraging post can have.Excellent post @Margarettt
So glad you're starting to find your own way, and your own tastes and workarounds.
And that you posted to encourage others.
We each have to find a way of eating for life (woefl) that suits our meters and bg, our tastes and budgets, our families and our lifestyle
It's a balancing act!
