[QUOTE="AtkinsMo, post: 1900355, member: 104933"] The biggest favour you could do yourself is learning how to cook! It doesn’t have to be anything fancy to start with, a good old fry up is fine low carb food, I’m sure you can manage that! Bacon, sausage, eggs, tomatoes, mushrooms. Get yourself a great plateful. Just check the carb contents of the sausages, you are looking for sausages with less than 5g carbs per 100g, you will soon learn the brands that you can buy. If you’re stuck for what to have to eat for the next meal, have the same again! After a few weeks of getting used to cooking for yourself, introduce some variety, different meats, what veggies do you like? Beer?? Well, you will have to resist it! You can have, in moderation, Marston’s Resolution, which is only 3g per bottle. My hubby (who likes a hoppy real ale) mixes it half and half with Brew Dog Nanny State, which is a bit higher carb but more to his palate. Our local pub even stocks it for him now. But you’ll have to limit yourself to 2 a day to keep your BG down. After that develop a taste for dry wine or a spirit with a low carb mixer. As to the reason why you should do this? I couldn’t put it better than the opening post in the thread ‘Feeling really angry’ by [USER=473025]@AllieRainbow[/USER] at the moment! If you continue to eat high carb fast food and drink loads of beer, and try to cover it with ever spiralling medication you have a grim future ahead of you! Your future is in your hands! [/QUOTE]
