Hi Jaylee, thanks so much for your reply. I am indeed vegetarian.Thank you for the cauliflower cheese reconmendation. I like cauliflower and can get vegan cheese. I shall look into it! Thank you.

Hi Lovinglife, thanks for your reply. :) No worries about the mention of meat. I was very millitant about it as a teenager but as I've got older I think live and let live, it's up to the individual and their own conscience. I understand a lot of people do eat meat. My trouble is I'm too fussy...

Thanks so much MrsA2. I must appolagise, I never thought to search further than the first page. I appreciate you finding that thread for me. I hope you get your drink from Santa this year and really enjoy it. :)

Before becoming diabetic I used to love Crunchy Nut Cornflakes. I like the Chocolate Pops (Surprise! lol) Surreal. They have recently changed them and I prefer the old version but they are still nice.

lol. Can I be nosy and ask what cereal you buy? I eat Surreal. It's expensive as most 'alternative' food is. I don't know if you're allowed to do links on here, but if you like more savory they do Peanut Butter flavour and cinnamon.

Thank you so much There Is No Spoon (Great username btw!). I did ascribe to the better choices by going by the diabetic friendly chocolate. I know there's no such thing as diabetic food but like you say, mitigation. Thank you for the roast potatoes tip. I'd have to go for the alternative and...

Wow, I wish I was like that. My mum was a very savoury person and wasn't fussed by sweet. I have been compensating by organising lots of chocolate for my releatives for Christmas. I've become a feeder! :oops::p

I used to be really bad for chocolate but the mounjaro stopped the cravings. Unfortunately I need to go up the next dose as they are coming back! I don't want to go up a dose just yet though as my poor body is also dealing with a severe Vitamin deficency and the I've only been on the tyroid...

Hi Helen, Thanks for your reply. Lol, you like the oft mentioned turkey sandwiches? Do you plan on any other indulgences? I did find a diabetic friendly advent calendar, So Free No Added Sugar Vegan Oat Milk Advent Calendar. I'm not vegan but acording to Google it is low sugar and carb and is...

Hi, I have had some lovely help from this forum before and have returned for more advice. I am a type 2 diabetic. I've recently booked my Christmas Shopping delivery slot so thoughts turned to Christmas dinner. I have been very careful with my diet the last 3-4 months and managed to get my Hba1C...

Ok, so, sopke to a dr earlier-left me so frustraited and annoyed, I might as well being talking to the speaking clock. She did expalin that Dapagliflozin takes excess sugar, passes it through your kidneys and flushes out with your wee. She said there is no risk of hypos from Dapagliflozin...

Thanks so much emmakate. I tried to make an appointment with the diabetes nurse today but she wasn't available till the end of September. The receptionist was very nice and sent me a econsult to fill out and I now have a dr calling this Wednesday afternoon.

Thanks septua. :)

Hi KennyA, many thanks for your reply. I did some Googling this morning and it said that I should eat between 130-200g of carbs a day. I shall try and get in touch with the diabetes nurse at my local surgrey to just check. If and when I get an appointment, and with the outcome, I will come back...

Hi,I was diagnosed type 2 diabetic years ago but have had no real information from the drs/diabetic nurse.TBH at the time I was offered to go on a course but I was, and am, housebound so couldn't attend so was just left as that. I was advised to check lables for carbohydrates and then, 'of which...
