I too am green with envy. I was stuck for a while but now I'm putting the weight back on :cry: I know it's my own fault and have only myself to blame :oops: I'm worried about falling back on the slippery slope!

Hi Bambino and welcome to the forum. You'll get loads of help, support and advice on here. I too am really struggling with the control. I'm quite new to it but at the start the fear of complications drove me for the first 3 months. Since then however it's been a constant decline! Like you, I...

Hi David and welcome to the forum. You'll find out everything you need to know, and more, on here. Everyone is so friendly and helpful. The best thing I did on diagnosis was to join here. Good luck with it all

That's good cos my heating is on the blink! :D Every cloud..........

That cake looks delicious Sid. Can you post the recipe?

That's great Bio. Well done :clap:

I buy haggis pie from Aldi's at 99p and have it for dinner. Only 99p per pie and 12g carbs! I live in Scotland so I don't know if Aldis down south will sell it.

You should have a good result with that breakfast. Have you tried peanut butter on toasted burgen? Really nice as a supper and seems to help the fasting BG level.

Well done. That's a great start. Keep up the good work and just ask anything you need to know. There'll always be someone who can answer.

Hi Scott and welcome to the forum. Most of us on here stick to Burgen soya and linseed bread, available from all supermarkets (usually approx £1) I used to eat nimble prior to diagnosis but this is much better. More satisfying, low GI and doesn't spike BG. Check out Viv's modified atkins diet...

Think I'll need to as well Paul. Trouble is they are so hard to resist...especially when they are on special offer!!

Errr, I know what you mean Etty. I had 1 choc digestive last night which turned into 1/2 packet! :oops: I thought I could stop at one! Who am I kidding ?

I learn something new here every day :oops:

I think it's great reading all these success stories. And it's really encouraging to know they are about real people, that there is life after separation/divorce and it is possible to move on and be happy again. At one point I thought I could never be happy again. It was due to the kindness and...

You've had your success with a dating site, swimmer. :mrgreen: Any other single men out there???

Sounds good Grazer but I doubt very much if there's any chance of that happening. :lol: And I could never leave this forum...who else could keep me right with everything :D

Hi petals and welcome to the forum. As a chocoholic myself, I can understand how you are feeling. I literally survived on chocolate pre diagnosis and I'm still finding it difficult to stay off it. It was my only vice and comfort in life! I recommend you buy Aldi's Moser Roth 85% cocoa. There...

I'm afraid I've got an old fashioned phone that doesn't do apps :( :oops: But it definitely is becoming an addiction and I know what you mean about the excitement of getting a message :D I can't get anything else done!!

Hey I never thought of trying that!!! +1 :lol: It's becoming a bit of an addiction now. On the plus side it's keeping me away from the chocolate!

Sarah, some dark chocolate tastes nicer than others. You need to try a few. My favourite chocolate is galaxy but it's off limits now, although I do treat myself to the odd one now and again! The Moser Roth is good for the regular daily fix!!
