    Feeling ashamed

    Hi Lily, I am older than you but still feel the shame and for me I don't think it will ever go away but I have very low esteem anyway due to traumas from family when I was very young. We can perhaps work together and over come this. Also on a lighter note, are they your pugs in your picture? I...

    Confusion within NHS Over The Treatment of Tyoe 2

    Well I really don't know what to say, I can't say I really understand everything that was said and a lot of it totally confused me especially what Aphorism was trying to get across to us, perhaps it is just me to-day but I would hope that he/she could start again for my benefit at least.

    milk versus cream

    I am in the same position, but unfortunately I just cannot give up my milky coffee in the morning, it is my only sin at the moment and make up for it by eating very low carb the rest of the day and I rarely go above 20/25 of carbs and get plenty of protein with the things I eat.
