[QUOTE="Lamont D, post: 1632953, member: 85785"] Well, where do I start! Talk about beating myself up! When first diagnosed, I read on the forum about how to do this, that , the other, trying to get my daily food to be under 20g of carbs every day, and then record everything, every bite, every morsel, in my own home made food diary, because at that time I was eating seven or eight meals a day! I would shop for everything, nothing would go in the trolley that wasn't right for my plan of meals, which was listed, also because of lack of funds, no work at the time, every pound was accounted for. I listed, I weighed, I cooked everything fresh, I ate, I tested, I recorded everything! I washed the dishes from me and the wife's meals, then go for a walk to make sure my blood glucose levels would not rise. My regimentation, lasted for about three months, until I knew that ketosis was established, my weight had dropped, my insulin resistance and blood glucose levels were in normal range, and I was feeling better. I believe I had to do this, as I believe, I had no choice. There was not a lot of information out there! Now I just don't have to eat at all! I still record when I feel the need to or try something new. I don't think about food much now! My body tells me when something isn't right! Small low carbs meals and intermittent fasting is just the right way to maintain my health! And I'm not obsessed, just a little bit weird! [/QUOTE]
