Today started with a forest walk, fasting until lunch time, which was a superb pub roast. 4 meats including the nicest, softest rare beef I've ever had. I skipped the potatoes and Yorkshire and chose sensible veg. Still a massive treat at reasonable price (compared to our expensive South East)...

Missed a few days, sorry! I too hope @Annb is OK. Being on holiday with a dog means keeping up the exercise to allow a few carbs. Today was a 75 minute walk (level for once!) Followed by tomato and pepper soup and a large cheese scone in a cafe, then 75 minute walk back. Dinner was cheese and...

This is a good thread with examples of what works for many of us. https://www.diabetes.co.uk/forum/threads/what-have-you-eaten-today-low-carb-forum.75781/page-3398#post-2811695

It's not exactly cutting things out, it's replacing carbs with protein or fat instead. You'll still feel full and satiated just not having your bg rise too much. There's no need to be hungry or too skinny For example instead of a chicken sandwich, have a bigger portion of chicken with salad and...

09:00 am online pilates class. 2 scrambled eggs for breakfast, followed by a hilly dog walk which both hubby and I found exhausting, no idea why . Lunch was a nut bar before a tour round a National Trust house which isn't usually open so we lucky to get tickets. Followed by tea and cake in the...

We are away and tending just to grab cheese of an evening. Lunch today was whitebait, shared with hubby and a dog. @Antje77 wishing you a happy time on Friday. Age is no barrier - as long as its legal ;). Mushroom soup is best made by slow cooking the mushrooms before adding any liquid, and...

A very warm day here, even from the get go. A chunk of brie before a walk A bit of gardening then a trip into a food festival. Had a jerk chicken leg, then a cream éclair Then packing for a trip tomorrow and a frustrating time with the computer printer. Supper was seedy crackers with cheese and...

A single scrambled egg for breakfast, just to lower appetite as off to village coffee morning that runs on cake! Did manage to resist. Drank lots of water and tea as went for flu jab and it's supposed to help (now it's 9pm and arm is sore, especially touched) Lunch was at pub with hubby and son...

A rare day with nothing planned! Had a lie in and a very long shower. Stayed fasted until 12:30. Hubby and I had walked 30 minutes to country pub. Shared a whitebait starter, then had greek salad that had prawns in it. Made a nice lc dish. Might have had 3 spoons of hubbys crumble and custard...

Didn't sleep well so had a lazy start, no breakfast and a trip to IKEA. Had meatballs and fries but nowhere near as tasty as they used to be, and only lukewarm. Hubby had cake as well. Picked up a few essentials and a couple of Christmas bits. Hubby bought 3 cakes but turns out 2 are on very...

How? Please :)

Yoga, then 2 eggs cheese omelette with 1 slice heylo with marmite and cheese. Was booked to do weight training later, but trainer poorly, so ended up being out of sorts and unable to settle to anything else. Wasted the rest of the day. Dinner was a concoction of cabbage and sweet peppers and...

Weirdly, nearly everyone I've spoken to lately, says the same, including me!

Woke really early so had a breakfast of ff greek yoghurt, seeds, nuts and raspberries, and a slice of lc bread with marmite. It's unusual for me to eat before an exercise session but I had a 4 hour gap today! Exercise class, errands Lunch was 1 slice ham, cold chicken, half a perfect avocado...

Forgot to mention that I picked up a bargain of a whole chicken reduced to £2.09 in Lidl yesterday. Roasted it straight away and have got at least 6 portions of meat from it, which will feed the 2 of us for a couple of days
