That's great news, well done. I have my appointment tomorrow with diabetic nurse to find out my latest results!

I gave up on finding suitable snacks a long time ago, I take mini babybel cheeses and small bags of nuts with me in case I need to snack on anything, I will take a multi pack of skips now and then (smaller than average bag) they don't affect my levels:happy:

I started off really well, doing 5:2 incorporating low carb/high fat, lost a stone and half then hit a plateau, despite still doing the same and lots of speed walking, however, I have now been told that I have hit that stage in life that women get to and so the weight is even harder to shift! on...

In my last job there was a girl who would walk around offering chocolates and sweets and say to me, quite loudly, "oh you can't have these" and whip them away!
