    Why Am I feeling this way

    Hey Esme, If you check out this post: viewtopic.php?f=5&t=6074 You'll see not so long ago I also felt down, just after being diagnosed, I think it's perfectly normal to feel that way. You have had a big shock, even when you are expecting as I was, it was still a shock! I think at...

    lolzcats!

    I'm pretty sure no cat can get in here to eat our food with our cats lol I get your point though, but sometimes it's a bit difficult, my mum has a cat that keeps coming in and she has tried to get him to stay out but he won't! He just walks in the cat flap, eats the food and then goes to sleep...

    Greetings

    Hi there, I've been diagnosed for a few weeks now, until I knew more I cut out all fast food, sweets and fizzy drinks etc, Tried to eat about 80g of carbs a day. I kept a record of all that I ate so I knew I wasn't going over. I'm not saying I was right or advising that you do what I did...

    help appreciated

    Hey :) Welcome to the forum, I think you answered your own questions, best to go to the GP and get it checked, and if it comes back that all is well, remember that you should look out for the signs in the future as it's in your family. Good Luck, I hope all comes back well for you :) Becca

    Newbie wanting advice!

    I do eat carbs, about 80g a day, but that is just me, now that i can test myself that will go up or down depending on the results :) I have found that because I wanted to limit my carb intake, some foods just didn't seem viable, like one slice of white bread = 19g of carbs (or around that...

Take each day one at a time, learn something new each day if you can, and always ask when your confused about...
