anyway.............. as far as dieting and health, honestly, i would just try balanced, healthy eating. The trick to losing weight is if you can manage to eat just a tiny bit less than you need every day, with considerations for the diabetes of course. you mustn't starve yourself or your body will try to preserve weight. and i would say once or twice a week having little extras, or main meals that may be a little richer than your typical "healthy" food... even pizza from time to time... it's not all bad - bread cheese and tomato... just watch the quantity in that case. same with Chinese, if there is something fried, or you get noodles or whatever. Just be moderate - and drink green tea with it to help clear the fats out of your system. It depends too on the restaurant - some use more oil, some use more water and cornstarch to make the sauces.

yeah, i am curious too! and you are very welcome... it was just a thought... i'm super glad you like it and i hope it helps.

love
