Aaaww thank you :angelic: I was drooling over toast last night, daughter said she was so hungry after being sick a few times, so I made her 1 piece of toast and the smell was wonderful :happy::joyful: then just before bed she was promptly sick again, but all quiet throughout the night :)
Good morning :)
 
Good morning it's the weekend, certainly different from last weekend :rolleyes:
Awoke on a 9.4 and having my first cuppa :happy: Hope the weekend will be a good one for you all, Happy Saturday :)

@kitedoc Roobios? What are they?

Catch you later.

Roobios is a a South African plant whose leaves are dried and used to make a form of tea.
Tastes much like tea but without caffeine.
Sunny and mild here. Lightly southerly breeze.
Reading a science fiction book whilst contemplating the next kite making activity !!

Rooibos tea - I drink about 8 cups a day. Red Bush Tea from Africa. Nicest without milk or sugar (for me) and a good flavour. As @kitedoc says, lotsa antioxidants and supposedly helpful with blood sugar. I dunno. I drink it because 12 mugs of strong black coffee a day weren't helping. I switched to 3 coffees in the morning with rooibos the rest of the day.

A glass of WHAT??? :wideyed::hilarious:;)
 
Back from a nice - if windy - stroll on level ground (helps the back) followed by a mad dash to the office to send off urgent document and finally trip to Sainsbury's for some of life's essentials. Next - brekkie, which Mr Wu is cooking (he's a much better cook than I am).

Later on I think I need to make tofu, but the next batch of seitan can wait until tomorrow. Today I want a long soak in a hot bath with some bath gunge. Doesn't sound much but all week I have showers and I lurve's me a bath!

Aside from that I want to sort out the incense box and bin any I don't much like any more. Any old stuff I do like gets crumbled into a little open box and popped in the bottom of my wardrobe; my version of pot pourri sachets in the knicker drawer like mum used to make. And there's always my sewing to get on with :)
 
Morning everyone!
I've just been catching up a bit with your chat and oh dear God I want to eat all the biscuits!
I admit I have been treating myself for an cheeky couple after a meal if I'm still hungry (and I'm always hungry...)

I too can hear the wind outside. Not much looking forward to going out in it. Though am looking forward to leaving the house to somewhere that's not to pick up a prescription

Take care with post-meal biscuits, they'll add carbs you've not dosed for and make it hard to plot your insulin to carb requirements. Still hungry? Cheese, nuts, bacon, ham etc or low carb snacks - you can find loads of recipes on this site or others on the web. I'll tag @Mel dCP as she eats low carb and may have some suggestions
 
Good morning all.
Did some mention a virtual gym?? Where do I sign up for that lol.
Not so windy in pontypool at the mo.
Off to see Ed Gamble tonight, really cant wait BUT the laughing will set off my cough, could be amusing....

On a fixed dose at the moment, but I have cut out a lot of sugar for now. Only been diagnosed 2 weeks, and the levels are coming down nicely. I dont think I've ever eaten so much cheese in my life than I have the past couple of weeks! Also discovered the wonders of pork scratchings and beef jerky to help those hunger pangs between meals!
 
@Jazz97 you will be hungry for a while as your body settles down again now that it is getting the nutrition it needs.
Cheese is always good!

Yes! I'm amazed I didn't realise anything was wrong for so long considering I used to struggle with two meals a day!
I have discovered some sugar free biscuits , which of course I am still eating in moderation, but have been a saviour for my cookie cravings!
