I'm going to see if I can get number lower, but I do struggle with Endometriosis medication which causes weight gain, I'm desperate to lose more weight as I think my diet is pretty spot on, it's the frustration of not seeing the lbs go that get's me.
Well yes, same here. That's what I mean. I'd like to be able to eat the food I was brought up on and am instinctively drawn to without my feet falling off as a consequence.
Current science points to the possibility of reversing Type 2, therefore enabling one to eat more carbs safely. But carbs seem to be a good route to developing Type 2. That's a paradox. Given my upbringing and taste in food, it's a particularly difficult paradox for me!
If it was such an angry response then the keyboard would more likely have been in contact with your head!Just wondering if you forgot to add your own words after quoting me, or something went wrong with your post?
If you're just quoting me because you think what I wrote was wonderful then of course that makes perfect sense. I mean, it's only natural and I don't blame you
It just seems a little unlikely, and I expect that in reality you were typing such an angry response that you broke your keyboard. If so, please be gentle with me when you've found a replacement!

But I hsve been known to get so frustrated with its erratic and irrational actions that I have occasionally battered it to within an inch of its devious life - so who knows!
However, I think I'd started to write something about being brought up in the prehistoric era when full fat food was the norm, and that I'm fortunate that LCHF isn't a big issue for me. But since my keyboard tends to have a mind of its own, and will often send a post without my permission if it feels like tormenting me, (or more worryingly will add weird and sometimes expensive and completely unwanted items to my online shopping), so if I was distracted in the middle of writing, this probably is what happened.

Yes I wish I'd been brought up on better food. When I think back to my childhood, healthy food was a rarity. My packed lunches at school were things like sausage rolls, crisps, chocolate and a tangerine at best!
Probably much the same as the rubbish school dinners we had to suffer. Stodge, stodge and more stodge. Mostly pastry things, and that awful semolina pudding with jam. Served up in individual plastic trays. The iced rolls were nice though! That was in the 50's. No packed lunches in those days. You either ate what was plonked on the tables, or you went home for lunch.
Yes, my school dinners, when I had them, were much the same. Problem is, I loved them! Pie and chips, and that semolina pudding thing with jam! Mmmmm...
Reprogramming just about anything learnt in childhood is very difficult I think.
I used to hear my Granny talk of bread and dripping. Glad I wasn't around then.
Maybe because we were not sitting all the day at computers?I do remember bread and dripping. That was our normal tea as children. Strange but we weren't over weight with that sort of diet.
Mmmmmmm dripping. I make my Christmas roast potatoes in beef dripping and they are fabulous. I can't wait for Christmas, I am going to have three, then not test until New Year!
