Thanks for letting me join & am looking forward to finding my way around
Only recently diagnosed & like, I guess, many of you was somewhat shocked; I'm slim, low body fat, no family history & very fit. In my next life.......!
Initial advice given was 'you have a good diet so will just have to tweak it a little'. This made no sense to me & after a little research came to the conclusion that a low carb/ increased protein diet was worth trying. Have been trying this fairly successfully for a few weeks & was delighted to find this site (well done to the person/s who started it & those who've contributed). I've a lot to learn & think some of the answers will be here
will end there; have just been out to a nice restaurant & had a couple of glasses of a rather pleasant Merlot &, rather unusually, a digestif- a Cointreau - after the meal. Break it to me gently if wine & Cointreau are on the 'naughty list'
