[QUOTE="WhitbyJet, post: 301570, member: 35964"] Yes Sparklygal, there are many people who have felt like you do at one time or another, some still do :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: I worry when I read about people having high Hb1ac results, because I have experienced first hand the damage consistent high readings can cause. Is it possible that you suffer from depression, are you comfort eating?? Or is it that you are not prepared for when an attack of the munchies hits you so you go and grab the nearest available treat there is?? I dont know what kind of dietary plan you would like to follow, but if you were to work out a menu, prepare some food ahead and freeze in portions, both savoury and sweet you will always have something to grab hold of without causing too much damage. E.g. I am low carb, I always have soups, bread, cake, ice cream and other goodies in my freezer, I am lucky though because I have never truly experienced severe carb cravings unlike some other members. Have a look at some recipes, look at the pictures of the finished dishes, plan ahead a little, then set yourself little goals, say for example you will eat like this for one week, anyone can manage to stick to a new way of eating for a week, just to try it out, then see how it goes from there. Dont feel alone in all of this, you will get support from people in the forum, keep posting, talk about things, you can do it, I am sure of it. Big hugs x x [/QUOTE]
