Thanks for posting jack412, absolutely mindboggling, but so revealing... Thanksnope, you don't get the 'feelings' us overeaters get while eating. It's leptin and would be like me describing the colour red to a blind man
this video will help
I reread my post, It sounds like a shot, but I didn't mean it that way, I was trying to say it's not as simple as restricting calorie dense foodsI didn't say anything about feelings.
there is no rush for diet except to cut carbs. after you lose weight you need to think long termMaybe not, I'm not a doctor, I don't know really, I just can't see it as healthy to eat all that stuff
No problem. But sometimes it might be.I reread my post, It sounds like a shot, but I didn't mean it that way, I was trying to say it's not as simple as restricting calorie dense foods
I think the problem we have is the reason people eat. If it's to lower blood sugar readings, if it's just to be healthy all round, if it's weight loss. I have substituted oatmeal for natural yogurt, in order to lower BS readings, and it seems to be a good decision so far.
Just had a read on "WebMD.com" about fats, and it's the usual story, "eat healthy fats like olive oil and walnuts, avoid butter and lard". Think I'll give the butter, cream etc a miss and just swap a few high carb foods for lower ones and exercise a bit more.
some people can't do low carb and low fat, they get hungry and drop the diet and go back to their old way of eating. the main thing for now is your BG. the rest can come later after you stabilise.I think the problem we have is the reason people eat.

Yes, there's a great deal of out of date information being handed out by bastions of medical authority.
.
I totally agree. There is also a lot of information being handed out by non-medical people, that's when folks (like me) get confused
Then do the research yourself.
Am trying my best to do just that, and all I read is "avoid butter etc" , which is what I'm doing.
you will be fine avoiding butter, olive oil is very good and recommended by everyone. I often use olive oil on a my tomato 'LC sandwidge', where I wrap up in lettuce leaves instead of bread. sliced deli meat is good as a bread replacement too.Am trying my best to do just that, and all I read is "avoid butter etc" , which is what I'm doing.
Then focus on more recent findings.
I think I'll avoid WebMD from now on.Well I only did a google search about "healthy fat" , things like that, "WebMD" was one of the first to come up that's all. It told me all I needed to know, that's it.
Jut seems there are plenty of people confused about eating fat, I was one of them.......that's why I joined this thread. Now everything is fine, thanks, no more confusion
I think I'll avoid WebMD from now on.
Exactly.Because a doctor said don't eat butter?
