[QUOTE="catherinecherub, post: 222632"] Hi Ian Your reactions are quite normal. There are not many of us who were not devastated by the news and we all wished that we had been more sensible about things prior to diagnosis. Some of us thought we were eating healthily prior to diagnosis but have been diagnosed as well. The guilt you are feeling about your situation will eventually fade as you get to grips with managing your condition. The stereotyping by the media does not help the situation either. This condition can be managed and you will get your life back. The advice that Daisy gave you will help you understand what needs to be done with regard to adjusting your diet. It will take a while but things will become clearer and you will gain control. Keep that food diary going and test to see what you can eat or what needs a smaller portion. Come back with any questions you have or to have a rant about how you are feeling. Take care, CC. [/QUOTE]
