[QUOTE="christinet, post: 10724, member: 8225"] Hi everyone I do so much appreciate everyone's help in trying to help me understand how I can now start to try and get my sugar levels stable. I have diabetic retinopathy now and my eye sight is very poor and I have had lots of laser, detached retina etc etc, and I have been told that to help this condition I should try and get better sugar level control. So I think I am starting to make sense of some of it. Am I right in thinking that usually anything low fat will mean higher carbs, and should I stay away from low fat? The problem is that I also need to loose a few stone in weight. Can anyone guide me to the best forum to go to regarding weight loss and the things I should be looking for on food labelling and also the types of food I should be eating / not eating as I believe I have been doing it all wrong and must re-educate myself and get onto the right track. I have been to a dietician before but in the main they seem to just tell you what foods to stick to which can be very boring and give you an idea of portion size. It would be so nice to understand it properly and that way I can maybe have some choice from time to time and hopefully in that way be able to stick to a weight reducing diet. Once again thanks to everyone. [/QUOTE]
