[QUOTE="JoKalsbeek, post: 2449378, member: 401801"] Excellent work on the loss, and your readings look fab. As for what's next... There's just three macro-nutrients, and if you cut both carbs and fats, that only leaves protein... Which isn't very doable. Having done low fat and becoming morbidly obese as I went, -I was about as wide as I was tall!- and having gone low carb and having lost a lot of that excess weight and gaining blood glucose control, my vote'd be low carb. Don't overthink things too much, there's lots and lots and lots of sites out there with recipes that would confuse a science teacher. Just keep it simple. Base meals around meat, poultry, eggs, cheeses, (I ALMOST said fish, but I know that's out! :) ). Then add in low carb, above ground/leafy green veggies. Full fat greek yoghurt with some berries is fine, you know... Simple stuff. Real food. You can make things as complex as you want, but just be aware of the basics: low in carbs, high in healthy fats. Protein, middle-of-the-road. Build from there, and you should be fine. [URL]https://www.diabetes.co.uk/forum/blog-entry/the-nutritional-thingy.2330/[/URL] this might help some, but I can just see you rolling your eyes at [I]yet another site[/I]. ;) [/QUOTE]
