Well, threw all my toys out of the pram - ham rolls, oppo ice cream, crisps. I think that I must pull myself together.

This morning 10.6

bedtime 12.4

So all that junk and it's better than yesterday when I was on a proper diet. Don't get it at all.

Back on the straight and narrow today.
Because you have to low carb for a month before any fbg is reduced. Then after that refuction you can work on liver dumping.
Hun, you are trying it the wrong way round.
Low carb first -for a month. Give it a good period of time, most do it for life.
