[QUOTE="KK123, post: 1883738, member: 451727"] Hi Andy, the problem with all of that is that it is all high carbs and mostly processed. I know how hard it can be at work canteens or feeding the kids, or 3 for a tenner meals or not having access to anything low carb etc, but if you are truly looking to combat this diagnosis it is YOU that has to do it (as I am sure you know because you are asking questions on this site). If you rely on whatever happens to be available wherever you happen to be, you will be unsuccessful. Most people you will find take their own meals in to work so that they can control what they eat there, it will also involve planning ahead if you don't have much time after you've sorted the kids out, you'll be amazed at what you can prepare for yourself in the time it takes to microwave a ready meal (ie 5 minutes). It ain't easy but you need to stop thinking 'well what can I do when this stuff is all the world is providing me with' and come to terms with the fact that only YOU are responsible for what goes in your mouth. I am sure others will be along to give you some great ideas. That mental blockage is quite common and can take a lot of effort to break through. It's the very first step to success!!!! x [/QUOTE]
