I’m back!

Not quite a new user, but as I was weeding out my friends list I realised
a) I have been registered with MFP for 10 years now.
b) I haven’t really been using it for probably 3 years.
In that time I originally lost 25lbs and hit my goal weight of 150lbs, and have since drifted back up to 161lbs. My Dr has recently told me I am pre-diabetic but that at 5’10” I clearly don’t have a weight problem. In the next breath she told me I need to get things back in line by dropping out carbs and all the lovely things that go with that food group. I could have quietly throttled her! However, the plus side is that she also told me not to worry about fats - just cut out the carbs (and the beer, rice, pasta…….!)
So, I have to learn about a whole new set of rules and that is why I am back with a real interest in things again.
My FL is quite short now even by my standards (I don’t collect FR’s like confetti ask like to interact with people) so if you are in the same boat I would be interested to hear from you, particularly if you are in the SE of the UK!
