[QUOTE="Neohdiver, post: 1249983, member: 258692"] [U]What I miss[/U]: Homemade whole grain bread and time. [LIST] [*]I've had about 3 slices of fresh warm bread from my bread machine since October 2, spread over 4-5 sittings (less than a slice at a time, to keep the carbs low enough so I can safely eat it). [*]The time I invest in food preparation is time I really can't afford to lose - but from a health perspective I can't afford [U][B]not[/B][/U] to invest it. [/LIST] [U]What I don't miss at all (all vanished post-diagnosis & tight BG control)[/U]: [LIST] [*]Constant fatigue [*]Constant foggy brain [*]The 70 extra pounds I've been carrying the past few years [*]Tasteless fast food (or fast food made "tasty" by the addition of chemicals, sugar, carbs, and unhealthy fats) [*]That breast cancer tumor I wouldn't have found, but for kicking the 70 extra pounds to the curb [*]The fatigue and skin ulcers I would likely have had from radiation (at my former weight) due to fat rolls creating constant skin-to-skin contact and radiation hot spots. [/LIST] [/QUOTE]
