Hi all,
I am 3 days in and starting to feel amazing. i have been able to stop taking immediate insulin. I will be reducing my overnight insulin soon as well 🙂
i am not missing the food so much as i’m missing the lifestyle like a cup of tea at the end of the night with milk and 4 sugars or the cake when i catch up with friends.
I have fought a lot of temptation today and so am feeling stronger 🙂

Wow in 3 days you are able to change your insulin that is pretty incredible! Well done for fighting temptation too.

As for what you miss, you can still have tea just with sweetner rather than sugar and count in your milk.

As for the friend thing, you could ask to meet them somewhere different where cake is not available. I often meet a friend for a walk. Alternatively have them over to your place for a catch up and look up recipes that are lower carb, I’ve been making coconut flour pancakes and having it with pureed fruit, and there are recipes for chickpea flour crackers that you could serve with cheese, you could make lots of lower carb nibbles.

thanks izzy 🙂 i will do that when the 800 is over 🙂 i have just finished my first week and am missing things less and less. I have started drinking herbal tea aswell
