Hi All,
Is it possible to eat Dumplings and stew on LCHF diet?
I have a friend who despite knowing I'm recently diagnosed type 2 and the diet I'm following, keeps trying to sabotage me every thursday. I go to hers every week for dinner and then on to the local quiz night. Last week she dished up fruit crumble with custard and this week is planning stew and dumplings. I've tried telling her about my diet and how 'cruel' shes being dangling such temptation in front of me but she carries on. Its really hard to resist when everyone else is enjoying such things around me. I appreciate her feeding me, its lovely and I don't want to stop others enjoying her delicious food. But how do I get through to her that I can't eat such things without causing offence or potentially loosing one of my few friends I have?
