I think the Pop tarts are the first thing that jumps out at me, also aren't raisins not good? Also double check your medicine labels, but I know I take something that forbids me from eating grapefruit (which I hate any way).

Also are you exercising? This is what made the difference for me. I have now lost almost 10 lbs, recently purchased a bicycle and am going to be cycling to work (also saves gas!).

I stock my fridge (at home and at work) with the low carb yogurts, Ralph's has a store brand that is 4 carbs (with 1 being fiber, so net 3 carbs and only 70 or 80 calores). I work literally a stones throw from the beach so after lunch I take a 45 minute walk on the pier, or the beach itself. I also keep low carb snacks around as well.

Unfortunately results do take some time, and some effort. I am resolved to lose another 40lbs, and eventually get off my meds (and lower my A1C).

Best of luck to you, and give it some time, if you are committed the results will come.
