Going through that process of overeating and acknowledging how bad it makes you feel is part of the process. It makes it easier not to do it again. You draw on the experience and in future rather than have to exercise willpower to not overeat you simply choose not to because it makes you feel bad. Jx

Happy Easter
Hope you are all having a lovely Easter break.
No eggs for me, I just don't find chocolate that appealing anymore. Though occasionally I do buy a bar of 85% dark choc and have a square or 2 after a meal.

Re: ladybird's check in

Thanks both, I need to find a program to follow at home and make it habit !!!
I was researching local gyms last night but find them not only expensive but soulless.
I'll update when I find something.

Yes I think if I was sure weight resistance work would help my insulin resistance I would do it. I have another hba1c reading at the end of march so may consider after that if nothing moving in the right direction. I do have some hand weights at home. I think it's the thought if going to a gym I don...

Well that pound has come back off just by returning to normal eating habits. I've also been trying to walk for at least 20 mins a day to help my blood sugars. Despite the winter weather I have managed most days. I've taken up a charity challenge to do 100 skips a day. I am so unfit cardio wise!! But...

Re: Ellis tries again!
I would like to echo what Ladybird said. When I started mindfully eating I genuinely found I didn't enjoy a lot of so called treats! Much easier then not to eat them.

Re: ladybird's check in
Have you tried cutting the grains to help with weightloss?
I've read a lot recently about the impact of carbs on insulin and fat storage?
As long as you have sufficient fat and protein with some above ground veggies or salad the meals are quite satisfying.

Re: ladybird's check in
If your weight is stable and you are eating out of hunger I wouldn't judge it as a fail.
Sometimes it is good to listen to what our bodies needs.

If you want freedom around food, ditch the calorie counting. Start with sticking to 3 meals a day, make sure you eat stuff you enjoy and enough to satisfy yourself. Eat slowly and if possible without distraction. When this habit is solid address how much and what you are eating. If you fail there is...
