Now that's a nice idea!

My meals may not be as low carb as others, but today for lunch I had a wholemeal corned beef & tomato sandwich (38g carbs), and for dinner I had three nests of egg tagliatelle (56g carbs) with a spicy, homemade minced beef bolognese-style sauce. My CGM seemed to approve; I might actually be...

Apparently this week I have lost 2.4 lbs. My belt feels a bit more loose, so it may be right.

It's not copyrighted, so feel free. ;) Here's my lunchtime graph:

For lunch today I had a ham and boiled egg wholemeal sandwich (CGM approved). And for tea I had a wagyu burger, with Chinese-style fried cabbage (thanks to @shelley262 for the idea) with onions and garlic, plus a few carrots. A bit too much five spice powder, I think.

I received the reader, but I notice that the sensor needs to be scanned to get a reading, and doesn't give a continuous reading. I can do that with the phone by scanning it via NFC. I'll leave the current sensor on and scan it from time to time, and I'll wait until the LibreLink app is updated...

That lamb shank looks lovely, @Rachox. I'm thinking of having one at the weekend. Where did you get yours from?

I rang Abbott and they said their technical team was working on an update for Android 16, and are sending me a new sensor and a reader (both for free). So I'll use the reader until they update their app, I suppose.

Today's lunch was a nice rib-eye steak, with chantenay carrots, green beans, mushrooms and mashed potato. I'd planned on sautéeing them, but I boiled the potatoes for too long so decided on mash, which was lovely.

Hi Jaylee. I'd recently reset the Bluetooth and Wi-Fi settings, and the LibreLink app is up-to-date.

Thanks Peter. "Allow background usage" was already enabled. I don't actually need the Libre2, but I've paid for it and I'd like it work properly.

I have a Libre2 plus at the moment and keep getting the "signal loss" message. The phone will scan the sensor successfully via NFC, but will often show a "signal loss" message the next time it tries to update the reading. The app will sometimes work for a while if I toggle the Bluetooth off and...

I've put on 0.2 lbs over the past two weeks. Been hovering around the 13 stone mark for a couple of months now. Time to get back to the gym, I think.

I prefer that, when fried. Also called hispi cabbage, I think.

Thank you. I'll definitely try that. Savoy cabbage, I presume?
