[QUOTE="type2_2020, post: 2289183, member: 526318"] The sooner you can get onto a low carb high fat style of food the better you will feel in yourself. You can still have the occasional dark chocolate in moderation, but I would suggest you reduce carb intake as soon as you can. You'll notice slowly the weight will drop off and you have ample energy. After a week or so you won't have any cravings and when you walk into a supermarket you can look at all those carby foods and imagine the true sugar content and simply head down to the veggie isle and find things like eggplant, big mushrooms, leafy greens, above ground veg and your body will be satisfied and you will feel full. I now only eat once a day and plate is full of veg and either fish or chicken. Be careful overdoing the protein, moderate intake is the way forward. You have to look at things like this. Your life vs junk / carb foods (which will eventually lead to complications). Choose life and live it to the full on something nutritious for your body. [/QUOTE]
