  9. Thankyou jack Yes l know all what your saying, l eat a lot cheese, as it's easy, and npmy favourite, l am eating more protein, back to basics, Thankyou
  10. Thank you for your replys, l have just lost my way a bit, it's true you do crave carbs. I certainly do, will now change to high protein, would cheese be an unhealthy option ?
