    Hi Jo, Thanks for coming back to me so quickly. I could almost cry at what you’ve said as I’ve been worried about the larger jumpers. I did try to put as much info into my testing as I could [emoji23] I think this has given me a real insight into the effects that carbs have and I’m going to...

    You’ve got it spot on! I have now ordered myself one so I’ll wait to see what happens when that arrives.
