[QUOTE="MrsA2, post: 2315509, member: 521715"] [USER=531359]@Humminglime[/USER] I'd also add it is worth totally forgetting about calories and calorie deficits. It will mean a major rethink but calories have no place in diabetes, or not when first getting under control. Eating protein and low carb until you are full, then stopping until the next meal is best and you won't be hungry. I've been doing this six months now, used snacks of nuts or olives or plain yoghurt in first few weeks, now dont need them. I've lost about 3 stone and rarely felt hungry. It is so very different from all other diets, but it works, and is for life, so don't rush, panic or stress.
