From the veg you listed there, some would consider the carrots a bit carb heavy, but they're fine for me. For me. Each one of us has to set our own personal limits, which means what's works for one, won't for another.
We all have to find our own balance between eating for functional nutrition and full on hedonistic eating. For me, I need to enjoy my food. Aside from anything else we eat at the table 3 times a day, so I don't want to be sitting scowling at my food. We also want to be eating pretty much eating the same meal. MrB might have more carbs, and I'll likely have more veg, but the same meal.
Keep testing, but for these first few weeks without meds, set your upper target just a little higher, as your body adjusts. Our bodies do work miracles, but some are just not exactly instant.
Test, test, test.
Thank you
Just a quickie. So busy planning meal I forgot I needed meat. Don’t fancy chicken or beef so though I could do casserole but stick in pork chops to cook at same time (instead of chunks of pork). Would that work?
