  • My friend, so glad you shared. I expect just the act of writing that out might have helped. I hope so. Let me encourage you by saying that you're stronger than you might think...because you reached out from your low feelings. Congratulations. That means a lot-that you're a fighter, you have a desire, etc. What you're…

  • I've started having a protein shake and going to bed shortly after. Does a great job stabilizing BS overnight and I wake up earlier. Sort of a win-win for me.

  • Congrats on the weight loss. At the very least, you have to feel much better. Wow. Good job. I have a theory about gyms. When I started my journey, I headed to the gym. Lost a little weight, added plenty of muscle--and plenty of aches and pains just like you. Now, I quit the gym. Not guilty over it either. I run. I love to…

  • I agree. OP, use the ice cream as a great symbol of opportunity. Summon the courage, blast your favorite music, and go to the sink and run hot water on it until it melts. Then go to your journal and record the date, time, the music that was playing, and the victory you scored. Get rid of the stuff. It's not a treat...it's…

  • It's a great quest and a great question. I'm T2 and will tell you what I do. I got tired of chasing and filing and rating recipes. So I ramped up my pioneering spirit and just started trying stuff. It's a great dinner-time adventure but hard to repeat if you find something that works. But that's part of the appeal. I…

  • You'll get opinions 'all over the board' on carbs. I'm a diabetic and have had some of the finest Endocrinologists in the world on my team, even they don't share common opinions on how much carb to have in my diet. I've found the greatest success by setting a percentage goal (for me, about 60g per day) and using MFP to…

  • Not laughing at you, I'm laughing with you. (Helps keep us from crying!). Had the same problem. We convince ourselves it's entirely mental. I'm learning (I'm learning never to say 'I've learned' anything...I always regret that...) that it's not always a mental issue. I've been watching my blood sugar and learning all I can…
