Yes I have just discovered this bread and I love it. Yes it’s expensive so I keep it in the freezer and take out slices as needed. They do also provide the flour if you want to try to make your own. I love it and so far no nasty side effects [emoji4]

I certainly feel that I have a carb addiction. If I stray it gets difficult to get back on the straight and narrow and I have emotional bouts of poor me [emoji85] I put on 3lbs over Christmas. 1st lb is off already so quite happy. Happy New Year everyone [emoji898]

So glad to hear this is true for others [emoji4] I was beginning to feel like I was turning into the wicked witch of the north. The urge to stab people with my knitting needles has been nearly overwhelming at times. Happy New Year everyone

So sorry to hear your experience especially in relation to weight loss. I need to lose 2 stone and I use the nutra check app set to carbs so I can keep my carb intake down. I find it easy to use and really helpful too. So glad you have found this place, everyone is very helpful [emoji4]

Hi everyone I have been doing well up until the last few days. My bloods in the morning have been between 4 and 5:4 but the last few days they have shot up to 7s and today 8:3. I had had my morning tea with almond milk before remembering to do my bloods, I have got sinusitis and feel rubbish...

I would be interested in your findings too. I am trying to find ways to exercise a bit. I have invested in a seated bouncer. I should explain I use a wheelchair. Will try some of your testing ideas thanks for sharing

Hi I am presently keeping my carbs below 60 and my bloods are averaging 5.8. I notice that some people eat a lot more carbs but exercise loads. Unfortunately I can’t so am I always going to have to give up porridge and potatoes? Thank you

Congratulations such good news! Glad to see your determination is still there too [emoji171]

Yes I am doing fine, losing every week and getting there. I am glad your wife’s patients are doing well too [emoji4]

Diet suggestions, I like picky plates so blueberries, raspberries, boiled egg, cheese, olives, cucumber,some nuts, Parma ham, lettuce and one square of 90% chocolate. This is my favourite plate

What is the gov 800 low calorie program? I have never heard of it. Sounds interesting
