[QUOTE="tigerlily72, post: 745877, member: 38433"] [FONT=Verdana][SIZE=4]Wow, well done you :D It [I]is[/I] a real wake up call. It's also not easy changing the (bad) habits of a lifetime is it? That's great that you've lost a stone already as it'll help and of course make you feel better. I've also reduced my carbs and dramatically reduced the amount of carb rich food I eat, i.e. only having potatoes very occasionally. Not sure what meter you've ordered but I invested in an SD Codefree which I use to test every now and again. As someone who is needle phobic it takes me a lot of courage and even then my husband actually does it for me! ;) You certainly aren't alone in this and carry on reading the various threads - there's just so much fantastic advice and great support on here. Glad you found the site and good luck with your goals :)[/SIZE][/FONT] [/QUOTE]
