it is important I find to have lots of foods of the kinds we can eat a lot of in ones home and bringing some with oneself to work or where one goes.... I have nuts, olives, and childrens cheese sticks in my fridge , and lidl´s protein rolls in my fridge , I try to eat in between meals that are as low in carbs as possible like avocadoes , peanuts cucumbers , sometimes I just buy some roasted cold chicken and only eat that...
Well there are times where I eat some of the foods I feel deprived from , that is especially when I have been doing a lot of excercise like around 4 hours then I think the carb rich foods are well deserved...and than my body is already on it´s way to get my blood glucose down...

Will address my store cupboard this weekend to prevent bad choices being made, and concentrate more on the low/no carb items. Thank you

Hi @Grasue you have taken on a lot of changes in a relatively short time - food diary, regular bg checks, clearing store cupboard etc. Give the changes time to bed down. Concentrate on making these changes part of your routine. You may find that by eating at three times during the day you no longer want to snack between, particularly if you allow yourself a portion of ' full fat' foods., Diabetes means making changes for the long term, until they are second nature you are likely to slip back into old habits. When friends and colleagues can tease you about your diet, knowing that you will not succumb, then you know that it is OK to start focussing on something else.
