You're welcome. And they are very tasty and addictive.
The cat in the picture is my Late Great Victor. He was diabetic too towards the end of his life. He was a wonderful boy.
If you like the crunch of Ryvita but want to cut the carbs, try making these; I adore them and they're easy to make:

Cakes, desserts, scones, bread. Given that I work at a conference centre and there's loads of all these things, plus colleagues who keep buying stuff to share, it becomes a gargantuan struggle.
I vape and sweet tasting liquids have no effect on my blood glucose levels.
The irony is that after being diagnosed with T2D and going LCHF, the sweet liquids started to taste sickly, so I now favour sour and tangy fruit flavours.
I wouldn't touch statins with a sh*tty stick. My practice tried bullying me for ages about taking them - to the extent that they even filed two prescriptions for me to pick up from my designated pharmacy. After a very strongly worded email to the practice manager, the automatic statin...
@Wilber123 - I'm not surprised you packed it in. I was offered the chance to go on the 18-week course after having endured a one-day course (mandatory, apparently) much of which was spent sitting on my hands when the dietician was doing her spiel I turned down the 18-week one flat. I didn't want...

I just pasted the link into a new page in my browser. This is from Diabetes UK, which is still pushing the Eatwell Plate, sadly, and this is the first point of reference for many newly diagnosed people as this is where their HCPs tell them to look.

Having had my fill of shakes and terrible low mood after two weeks with the Newcastle Diet and went back to LCHF, which works very well for me.
What I'm doing these days is having three "fast days" a week where I consume up to 800 calories of REAL LCHF food - eggs, almonds, a sliver of cheese...
Years before I was diagnosed and before I went through menopause, I was always being asked: "oh, when's your baby due?", or being congratulated.
These days I don't have a bump and seldom get offered a seat on the Tube. :)
Well, the programme has piqued the interest of my non-diabetic colleagues and at least one has watched it on iPlayer, and they are very keen on trying it out for themselves!
