Type 2 Not feeling great

[KimG]

About half way through, I usually either shake the tray or turn the pieces over. It all helps. I love my roasted veggies.

Thank you. Do you use much olive oil?

I tend to lightly oil the tray or dish, just to ensure the veg doesn't stick, the lightly drizzle when they're on there. I have a few home made infused oils I sometimes like to use, to add a little extra something; garlic and/or chilly, for example.

Hi

Great advice above. All i can add is to suggest that if your body has not yet adjusted to the current dose of metformin a day, then it would be bowel-shaking madness to increase the dose so quickly!

I urge you to stay with what you are doing, then increase slowly after your body learns to cope with this dose. If you need to discuss it with the surgery, but don't just follow their instructions if it is causing you distress. Any experienced metformin prescriber knows that people adjust to it at different speeds.

Sounds v tasty.

If you can drink loads (water!!) and try just a bit more salt as mentioned above, hopefully you'll feel fine soon. Someone advised on here to use good salt, so I switched to finely ground sea salt rather than my up until then table salt - something to do with more minerals/less impurities.

Take care.

My understanding is that between sea salt and table salt the minerals should be the same, and the only "impurity" I can think of would be iodine, but that is good for us because it prevents iodine deficiency, which involves goiter.

Ooh curry sounds good. Recipe please

@KimG has sent me hers and it's much superior, so perhaps she'll send you hers, or it could be put in one of the recipes threads.

How much peanut butter?

1 tablespoonful to 5 tbsp coconut milk

I will have to do it over several pages as I can only do 450 characters at a time.
