Hi lunarlinda
thanks for that. It will be better when I have sorted out a few problems here. I am a worrier. Yes you are right about it being partly to do with my son being away. When he gets back I will have to adjust to him being back again!
Could we have a low carb picnic while we are sitting by the roadside? I haven't eaten properly/enough for 3 days, so I need to make time to eat.

I am a worrier too, and it has been the bain of my life, but I'm trying to alter my head, I'm not finding it easy though.
I had 4 days last week of not wanting to eat protein, so I didn't. I am in control of what I eat and I listen to my body. I went off eggs a couple of weeks ago so didn't eat any and threw them away. The other day, I fancied an egg with my bacon so bought some, and really enjoyed eating it. Nothing I eat will make me feel guilty, as long as my readings stay in the 5's, I'm happy, and in my 4 days of no protein, I ate more carbs, but still stayed in the 5's in the main. I won't be a slave to it, it's a recipe for disaster for me, deprivation.
We can have a low carb picnic at the roadside Zand, or we can have a few little carby treats, just because we want to. Funnily enough, last week one of my treat choices was a Cadbury's picnic, ( pack of 3 actually for a quid!) and I thoroughly enjoyed them, savouring every mouthful. The 3 days I looked forward to eating them, and they quietened my " I feel sorry for myself" meme. This attitude is working for me, I know not everyone is the same, so you can eat what you want, and I'll do the same.
You tell me what will be on your plate, and I'll tell you what will be on mine.
