I have considered joining to get the balance magazine. How much does the membership cost and how often do you have to pay? Does anyone have any idea? Thanks.

Thanks for all your replies, it has been interesting reading and hopefully my bg's will come down soon. At the moment it doesnt seem to matter whether I eat low carb high fat compared to eating "normally" so will just have to persevere.

Hi Sally, thanks for the reply. Normally have bacon and egg in the morning which is fine, its when I have a lot of fat that I feel sick, e.g. home made quiche. Think I will gradually reduce the carbs, eg have about 20 per meal and see how I get on with that. This morning I had 31 carbs...
