[QUOTE="paula.nolan42, post: 1135084"] I have just finished the Diet Doctor 2 week LCHF Challenge, I think it's fair to say the LCHF has certainly lowered my BGs. And I learned a lot from it. I certainly will take on the Low Carb element. But as for the High Fat, that has been less than ideal, initially I lost 1.7kg but that week back on in week 2. No weight loss for me and my jeans feeling slightly snug again. I don't get out for a walk everyday and my work life is sedentary, I simply don't burn enough up calories to allow for all that extra fat. And I was never full, never felt satisfied, even though I ate plenty. What Diabetes has shown me is that I have a serious problem with my relationship with food. I have no off switch. And I have very little control. And when it all goes bad, I binge and gorge myself. Giving up cigarettes has been easier than changing my food habits. I was out with a friend yesterday for a catch up, as we talked, I realised I was using the language of addiction. And I think I might actually have to seek advice for what's going on in my head about all this. [/QUOTE]
