    Great article, thanks for sharing.

    TL;DR

    "…push refined carbohydrates to the end of the meal to help reduce post-meal blood glucose levels and keep you feeling fuller longer.

    Consider these tips:

    Start with high-fiber, low-calorie foods with high water content, such as soups, vegetables and fruits. They’ll fill you up and limit the sugar you take in on an empty stomach.

    Choose soluble fibers, such as nuts or beans, to slow digestion and possibly lower your risk of heart disease.

    Eat plant-based proteins, which increase your fiber intake and lead to greater satiety.

    Save high-fat foods for after fiber and protein since they affect heart health and don’t help with satiety."















  • Same for me, but 13 years. No one mentions the shame and isolation. I felt like a disease that no one wanted to be around.

    If I ran into any old colleagues, it was clear they pitied me. The ones that did stay in contact just wanted the “gossip” (there was none), or wanted confirmation that I was somehow to blame so they could be comforted in knowing it won’t happen to them.

    I “didn’t do anything to deserve this”, but it’s hard not to take it personally. The ruminating – trying to understand “why me, and not someone else” – hasn’t stopped.

    The betrayal and shame is overwhelming.
