Bit of a f#ck#p today:

B: coffeencream
S: glass of kefir

And then, suddenly and without warning, it was 1pm and i had to out. Having missed my lunch 'window'. This led to a bit of concern from Mr B.
Begged me to eat, actually.
Based on previous experience he had some concerns that i might hypo.
2 hours later, gibbering in fear he persuaded me to sample a bacon and egg sandwich on white bread. Left the crusts.
The resulting total lack of spike means that (unfortunately) he may have been right.

I will never hear the end of it.

D: LC moussaka and Lindt coconut dark choc.

Are you with or without Libre at the moment? If you are with Libre, the data dump is likely to tell you.

B: almonds
L: romaine lettuce, cauliflower, broccoli & green pepper salad
D: a large glass of riesling, asparagus, and buffalo chicken wings

Highest BG reading for the day - 5.9

I intended to ignore my daily calorie limit since we were going out for dinner and a movie. I felt on the verge of being stuffed at the end of dinner. But when I tallied up the calories I was still right at the target (and pretty balanced for carb/protein/fat). Dang, even when I try to be bad I'm good. 114 days of being no more than 8% over my goal.

Oops. I seem to have posted on the type 2 when I usually put my days menu on here but as it included fish n chips, haddock , it wasn't very low carb today.

 

[Mongolia]

B: 1/2 lidl roll with lots of butter, cranberry chia seed jam
L: slice cold roast chicken, rocket, coleslaw
D: fish pie with cauli mash (v lumpy :***: Bought new food processor and it isn't nearly as good as the old one which was ancient but fab. I unfortunately dropped the jug on the floor and the handle snapped off) and creamed cabbage; sugar free raspberry jelly

[DeejayR]

B: 2 poached eggs & half a large tomato on 1 slice toasted, buttered Livlife bread
L: Lidl roll with cold chicken & home-made pickled cucumber with fennel
D: Bolognese-type sauce, mashed celeriac & butternut squash, grated cheddar, yoghurt

I'm conducting a damage limitation exercise due to prolonged daily painting and decorating with snack lunches and little time for shopping and cooking. Mostly as above, although one day Mrs Deejay & I shared a Tesco pizza for lunch. Also yesterday we went out for a family lunch and although I chose my food in advance online, when we got to the pub it was a Sunday special, so I gave up and had a roast with all the trimmings. For pud I had as much cheese as I could manage and 3 biscuits. My BS peaked after 4 hours at 7.7 and was back to 6.6 an hour later, so not too bad.
When I feel carb creep coming on I think of the many, many pages of food in Carbs & Cals I never touch, which keeps things in perspective.
