I wish I could forget calories exist I am hopeless at portion control always been a big water so I am really worried if I forget calories I will be going up instead of down have already put 1 kilogramme told today I will leave chocolate drink alone now.

I'm going through a poorish patch at the moment and started counting both carbs and cals. It shook me that although I was doing great on low carbs, the calories were started to rise.
I mentioned earlier about chia pud, this is the recipe, I add cinnamon and sometimes 85% grated choc

I have just visited my doctor at renal clinic.My hba1c is gone from 53 to 64 I have put on 1kl in weight.
What do I do I eat no fruit low carb bread. Very rarely have a full dinner except when I go out which is about once a week.I no longer drink fruit juice and low calorie hot chocolate drink sends me sky high.I don't want to give up on low carb what else might help me.I have just sent for two recipe books one vegetarian and the other meat meals.

Why are you attending a renal clinic? If it is because you are developing kidney problems it might be time to ask to see a kidney specialist in case you need to take drugs of some kind to preserve your kidney function. It may be that by now diet alone is no longer enough. Your hba1c has gone up, and was already not low.

Sorry this is so long but just needed to put as much info as I can.

You do right! Never worry about giving too much detail when posting here. When I wrote my first post, I tried not to write too much detail, as I thought people would find it boring, and I was promptly asked for much more. We are here because this stuff fascinates us, and also because we want to help other people who are going through what we experienced (or similar).
