[QUOTE="Floralinda, post: 255023, member: 42277"] So glad this was posted, couldn't stop reading it as I recognised myself more at each stage. How amazing, to see in print, all the feelings and frustrations, so difficult to explain to anyone without this affliction, why it's not so easy to just 'get on with it, or snap out of it' on down days when in spite of all your efforts your meter still says 'shocking...19.6' or even worse, and yes ... mine has even hit the maximum, over 30. :shock: :oops: :***: . terrifying but true; and how do I react.. I feel like dashing out to the shop, in spite of state of dress, makeup etc, to buy the biggest b*****y chocolate bar in exhistence. It's the frustration that in spite of all the denial of the food you want etc , you still don't make the grade.. according to your meter, mine is so often at the top of my hate list it should have a season ticket!! :evil: Well this week have been low carbing, weighing, counting every little fraction, and my result is ..16.5, 19.6, I feel like giving in, but, after 5 years of I think, denial and a couple of the other stages, I know I have to sort this, 2 beautiful daughters, six absolutely gorgeous grandchildren and a boyfriend I don't always appreciate as much as I should are not things I want to bid farewell to yet, in fact not for a long time, I already inherited high bp and high chol and have already suffered dyplopia (double vision, so that you have 2 images of everything and even walking around the house causes nausea) so I think I have enough to spur me on. I'm just so pleased I saw this post. To properly understand that there are people out there, more than lots after reading it, that are also experiencing the less than perfect result for total effort and ensuing depression has made me feel less alone with this, I'm the first in my family so unfortunately I think sometimes they think I place too much importance on it, so... thanks, from the bottom of my heart x sorry for the long post, :oops: lots on my chest and a teary day x [/QUOTE]
