Thanks, Arlene.
Well, they work out OK for me - you'll see that I quote the cals/carbs per serving at the bottom of each recipe.
I have put a recipe on the forum for scones, which does have slightly higher carbs as they contain a small amount of regular flour, but on those occasions when only a scone will do, they don't seem to spike my BGs. (Of course, you do need a good dollop of clotted cream on them! ;))
 
My first day today
B- bacon and scrambled egg
L-full fat greek yogurt with blueberries
D-creamy spinach with pork chops and asparagus
Lots of water
I hope this is ok, i haven't got a figure of carbs i want to stick too but i was thinking moderate carbs.

Love reading what you are all having
 
Brunch: large fry up but zero carbs :)

Spot on, Scarlet! :)
 
B: Fage yoghurt with 6 strawberries and 6 raspberries
L: tomato soup
S: found the Christmas Cake I've been given just before diagnosis, I ate a slice :mad:

2 hours later, BG 8.1. Hey ho, no more Christmas Cake ... however good it was! Putting it down to a tired and emotional day. Tomorrow will be brighter :) all fruit might be a mistake too.
