thanks for talking about this with me. it gives me more motivation smile

My instructions were 30-40 grams of carbs at meals 3x daily, and 15 grams for snacks also 3X daily.

But my niece has gestational diabetes again and her doc says 15 grams 6X daily and a high fat snack midway through the night.

So…. I dunno. The first day of my bad attitude I had three cookies for dinner with a hot dog and some salads. But now I've just had one Toblerone bar over 4 days with all other healthy foods.

Just in the last few days I've inched down 3lbs… so I think my readjusted attitude is working. Moderation, which I hate, seems to be possible even with the worst attitude!
