[QUOTE="callyandy, post: 1279126, member: 337483"] Hello Kevin 10320, I'm quite new to type 2 as well, and waiting for my meter to come in the post. I can't add much more that what has already been said., but as you are cutting your carbs, please remember to raise you healthy fat consumption. We're also on a fairly tight budget, but I've found that having cut the sweets and treats, my shopping bill actually comes out about the same as before. It's true that the fats fill you up so snacking isn't an issue. The low carb programme is very good and all the support there and here really helpful. Also try [URL]http://cronometer.com[/URL] to help you count your carb intake. It's all in american, so you have to be a bit creative with your food description, but the tool does all your counting for you. You've had and continue to have a really hard time,:grumpy: we can't promise it will get easier, but there are some great stories of success here, and people are so generous with their advice and support. Hang in there. It's early days. Cally:) [/QUOTE]
