    Dinner surprises without CGM

    I too make Lupin flour pasta, mine is 45g Lupin flour, 35g vital wheat gluten and 1 large egg. I use half of the dough and freeze the other. Half the dough is 4 carbs. Also use the whole dough to roll out flat for lasagne sheets. Hard pushed to tell the difference from regular lasagne.

    The Low Carb Food Company have ceased trading!

    Yippee, just arrived. The bread and the rolls are indeed LCC, fresh made with their label on them. The scones I will try with trepidation @lovinglife I’m hoping that a gurt smothering of clotted cream will help! They have a Greenhalghs label on them. Freezer well stocked now, let’s hope the...

    The Low Carb Food Company have ceased trading!

    Ok, just had a text telling me my order will be delivered today. ( order from Handcrafted Bread) The text was from Greenhalghs, so they are indeed the same company. Next challenge is DPD actually finding my house!!

    Lack of low carb options in stores!!

    Empathise with the Gluten free stuff @Rokaab 2 family members are celiac and if I’m cooking for family gatherings, I wince at the cost!

    Lack of low carb options in stores!!

    Sadly I think it’s way way smaller. Many many people avoid or can’t tolerate gluten, lactose etc. Then there’s the Vegan market too. I’d agree that people with diabetes can’t tolerate many carbs, but that doesn’t seem to make any difference for many. It doesn’t help when so many HCP’s...

    Lack of low carb options in stores!!

    You can be sure if it was a big enough market, the big manufacturers and Supermarkets would be all over it. I fear it’s a very small market, the majority of diagnosed are for whatever reason oblivious to low carb/Keto and rely on meds. We are a small minority, which goes some way to explain...

    Breakfast ideas

    if I am hungry for breakfast, which after a while on low carb is not often, then hard boiled eggs from the fridge and a few slices of salami.

    The Low Carb Food Company have ceased trading!

    Thanks all for great input. I’m going to bite the bullet and order from The Hand crafted bread company. I’ll either be stocked up or refunded hopefully. As a born and bred Cornish girl, the thought of a scone with jam and clotted cream has sent me dizzy! Cakey tea as we call it down here.

    The Low Carb Food Company have ceased trading!

    Yes indeed, just looked at the website. The Pizza bases look very much like LCC ones, exact same nutritional value. Maybe a chance to stock up if they still indeed have stock.

    Summed it up perfectly! I’d be very interested how you find Ketoroma products. My fingers are firmly crossed.

    T2 HbA1c results

    Diagnosed at 87 in April, 3 months later with the help of this forum and meds 38. Just had results from last 3 months totally med free, 40. Was initially a bit hard on myself for the number going up, but am very happy on reflection. My morning readings definitely increased after stopping...

    I might well try those thanks @MissMuffett It’s the rolls I will miss for burgers etc. Although I have just discovered the joy of Chaffles, so that might have to do.

    The Low Carb Food Company have ceased trading!

    Yep Srsly taste ok, but texture is bordering inedible for me. Soo rubbery. The rolls I have to use a knife and fork so the contents don’t spill whilst I try and bite. DGF rolls texturally much nicer, but is an acquired taste!

    That’s news to me

    Agreed, it was featured in the Guardian earlier in the week. A quick check, not controlled study at all. Just questionnaire every couple of years about how much red meat you ate, never mind what you ate alongside it! Reminded me of my dear old Dad, when asked by HCP how much alcohol do you...

    The Low Carb Food Company have ceased trading!

    So disappointed to receive an email from Low Carb food, due to cash flow problems they are no longer trading. I eat their bread and rolls most days. The pizza crusts I can live without. Any suggestions for an acceptable alternative? Seriously low carb I cannot tolerate. Find their bread and...

    Success with low carb meatloaf

    50g almond flour 50g ground flaxseeds 90g grated Parmesan Seasoning of your choice, makes a nice tub of breadcrumbs. Hard pushed to tell from standard ones. I use half and freeze the rest. Cajun seasoning makes great breaded chicken.

    I've been very, very,, very stupid.

    Depending on what you vape, I’d argue it’s definitely not going to hurt you in the next 6 months. I’m into my 7th year! I stress it’s old school vaping, not the current hideous disposable dodgy things. My lungs have never felt better, I know exactly what’s in my juice as I make it myself. No...
