[QUOTE="McHelen, post: 2443912, member: 546594"] Food relationships are complicated and everybody has their own triggers. Different periods in life also have an impact - In 2012 I started treatment for high blood pressure and decided to ‘get a grip’, joined slimming world, lost 5st and took up running. Roll on to 2016 and I was diagnosed with an eating disorder, my BMI had dropped to 18 and I was controlling my life through a very harsh regime of exercise and restrictive eating. Roll on to 2021, my BMI is 33 and I have a diagnosis of T2. To be honest, after having a few weeks of T2 tantrums (why me, not doing it etc), I am now set for low card, monitoring blood sugar levels and positive attitude for control. BUT I know that, at the moment, my will power against carbs (not just sugar) is low, so hubby is all set to be the voice of reason and support to keep me going. Fingers crossed this strategy will work for me. [/QUOTE]
