[QUOTE="Qwerty101, post: 2417452, member: 543471"] Hi Thanks for the reply to be honest I am almost happy in a way that it has given me a kick up the a*** to sort my diet out and I would like to keep it healthy. if not for me then for my kids. Like I say it wasn't all that bad though probably just too much sugar and a few too many takeaways which seems to be the norm nowadays! not that its right that is! Probably the worst part I think is I didn't have a regular eating pattern. I don't really miss the sugar all that much but I did love nice food, I'm not a fan of macdonalds or kfc etc but I like to indulge in restaurants etc with the odd Chinese or kebab. It seems I now am only ever thinking of ways to cut out carbs rather than being able to enjoy food. I would love to get to a place where my levels were normal even if that means a relatively low carb diet the majority of the time but I can still enjoy the odd restaurant without having to think I can't have them potatoes or that desert. or eat roast potatoes and Yorkshire puddings on a sunday, or dare I even say a Chinese once in a while. the word cheat night seems to be a swear word so I won't call it that haha. Is that even possible? or is that dreamland now? [/QUOTE]
