They look lovely. I am going to make them this afternoon. Do you have any other lovely recipes with coconut flour? I have been starting to use it as have put my partner typw 1 on the ketogenic diet. I am making him bread from the flour every few days as its something he just cant give up. :-)

I am just staring my partner on a ketogenic diet and he is a type 1. I also believe it is the way forward to control sugar levels. :D

hello, I would be very interesting in seeing the PDF on the ketogenic diet. I am just starting my partner on it as i think its the only way forward for him. Any advice would be greatly received. Many thanks. x

when i first posted this thread i didn´t intend to educate or impress anybody .....................i am new to this. I wanted to share our family story of how "we" live it and learn by it. I have tried to be as honest as i can and hope that everything i have posted has been correct. I have not...

Just to keep every on updated. Firstly thank you for all your advice and well wishes. Yesterday we got my hubsands latest HBA1 results back. If you remember before it was 8.6, i have had him on a low carb diet for about 2 months now and the latest figure was 8 I am really pleased we are seeing...

Its really important to just ask any questions no matter how silly or ridiculous they seem. Everyone has had to start at the begining and we all still need help from time to time. I don´t think there will be anyone here who wouldn´t want to help. :wink: Take one step at a time and make sure...

@ phoenix , bonjour...... Very interesting in what you are saying and what a good idea assuming that 50% of the weight is carbohydrate. I have been a bit scared to guess at things. There is some lovley bread sold at an organic market here, i wonder if they would be any good. They do a brown...

@ hanadr , those figures are shocking.............although i can see how easily it could happen. My partner had the last reading before changing lifestyles of HbA1 cs of 8.6, He thought this was ok and one doctor even said it was high but not too high. My partner being an ex alcolholic...

I am doing low carb for my partner now. His BG is lower ( he had to reduce his insulin too) Lots of avocados and nuts should be in your diet and soya too. i´m guessing you don´t eat eggs ...........if you do they are great for of pure protein Hope this helps a little. :problem:

Thanks for the recipe, I cannot get coconut flour here ( in Spain) but i am guessing i could use a little more of the others or maybe some gram flour. I make my own almond flour by grounding up our own home grown almonds and flax seed is easy to get here and i use it a lot. I have looked for...

Thank you all for your kind words, although as you all know its good BG we need not kind words. If only things were that simple !! I too think it would be good to make this a sticky and the people like you chocoholicnomore can re read it over and over everytime you want to sneak a jaffa cake. (...

My Partner is T1 with Retinopathy. Both eyes are lasered to the max. He cannot have anymore either. The thing is that the doctors have said his vision is good and they don´t feel they can do anymore at the moment. They talked about replacing the jelly but only want to do that if his sight...

Hi my partner is very simular to you too. ( in the eye department lol) He is T1 with Retinopathy. Both eyes are lasered to the max. He cannot have anymore either. The thing is that the doctors have said his vision is good and they don´t feel they can do anymore at the moment. They talked about...

Thanks both of you for answering. I am looking forward to looking through this site. Being so new it is a bit daunting but i´m sure it doesn´t take too long to get to grips with it. I´ve never used a forum before but i think its the way forward for me. Also the online course sounds fantastic...
