Ive read some of your other posts and it seems this isn't the first time its happened. Are you T2? Why arnt you reducing your carbs if you find this happening to you?

I try to but I don't seem to have the will power. I try and then I just give up and then worry about i am doing to myself

What can I say netter, its in your hands. You have nothing to lose but to give it a go. Try it for a couple of weeks.
You can carry on worrying or take the bull by the horns. A habit takes at least 10 days to become a habit.
Clear out the rubbish food and plan a menu, prepare your meals, and do it for a few days. Check with your meter how its going.
But we cant do it for you hun. Good luck.

I'd also consider that you might be having an allergic reaction of some kind. Again, the only way to know is to cut out the offending food (wheat?) and see if your symptoms improve.
