I am absolutely beating myself up (in between tears) with a discovery I made early this morning. I suck very low nicotine lozengers all day long. Waking till sleeping there is one in my mouth if I'm not eating. I've done it for twenty years and like my GP I think its not good but its better than smoking. Any diet I've ever been on the lozengers don't matter because they have zero calories (no weight watcher points and zero slimming world syns) Turns out they have 1.9 carbs in each of them. I feel really really stupid. I must have 50 or so a day. More on long days. I'm shaking my head here. All my posts about random high numbers when I'm less than ten carbs and all your help and support.
I haven't had one since 9am and I'm already seeing 5.3, 5.7 etc. So, I'm vaping and I'm pacing and I've ordered patches and low carb mints and a whole new dimension to the journey begins. It feels like the last nine weeks were wasted time. I know I'll get over it and worse things happen at sea but right now I just feel ridiculous.
