Not eaten any desserts for 6 days

jeanie99 come and join us on the diet thread, you will get lots of support over there. But it sounds like you have got a positive attitude and thats half the battle. Good luck.

This is the link if you want to have a look.

the weigh in thread for this week.

Thanks for your interest glassortow, I don't need to loose weight I am about what I should be for my height, I need to eat the foods which will help the medical conditions I have.

Do you know a good website that can help in this respect for high cholesterol and pre diabetis, I've searched but can't find anything that gives enough detail.

For instance I know that some fruits are better for me than others e.g bananas should be eaten only occassionaly and the same applies to vegetables and meat.

What I need is a website that says this fruit/veg/bread/meat etc is better than other foods, and what to avoid.

It's so complicated finding the right foods for me that will produce the effect I need to bring my levels down.

jeanie I was in a similar situation just before christmas and I thought this looked useful... sadly christmas/life got in the way and I'm only now starting to take care of my diet again... good luck..

as usual I forgot to convert the link

Can you believe it 5 weeks on and I haven't eaten any cakes, I've now got over the craving but it was hard in the first few days. I do wonder if I did say for instance had a pancake whether the craving would come back.

I've lost some weight about 4 pounds which I didn't want to do as my weight is alright and certainly hope this doesn't continue.

Many thanks for the link tanith it's very useful.
