Sorry bit late with the best wishes @Ashybang, haven’t signed in for a few days, hope you’re improving day by day and sending hugs

I’ve done the same but only half of my turkey (wings, legs and skin) would fit in the crockpot so the main carcass is in the freezer waiting for the next batch. A few herbs and salt added.

7.2 at 7:30. I truly thought it was going to be in the 10s after eating late and 3 mini mince pies! The good news is no more mince pies now until Christmas 2024! :D Have a great Christmas everyone xx

Just catching up with posts and wanted to say a huge well done and congratulations @IanBish you’re an inspiration and all your hard work has paid off :cool:

Hi @mhaffner73 There is a YouTube channel called heavenly fan. She is vegan and is low carb/keto. She has wonderful recipes for wraps, veg curry and a host of other meals. I thoroughly recommend checking her out as she gives great ideas for meals.

7.1 mmols at 8am. The dogs are getting me up later on these dark mornings but I’m not sleeping too well. 2.5 hours last night according to my Fitbit :( Have a wonderful Wednesday everyone x

7.3 at 8am. Still on the self destruct and downward trajectory :(

I started taking it about a month ago but after 2 weeks started getting very bad pain across my diaphragm (stomach and liver area). I can only put it down to the berberine as I hadn’t changed anything else and the pain went away 48 hours after I stopped taking it. I don’t know if I want to try...

@LeafyArts That is fab result well done :D

7.5 mmols at 7:45. Have a super Saturday everyone x

Totally agree! :woot:

I’ve been on dapagliflozin for the last 6 months ish but I can never remember if that’s from the same genre as empagliflozin. I have got issues with remembering and losing stuff anyway so unsure if this has added to it. When I first started low carb/keto my brain clarity improved. It’s...

Loss of 2.6lbs! I’m like a yo-yo I can’t really congratulate myself as I’m classing it as losing the 2lbs I put on last week! :rolleyes: :shifty:

7.6 at 7:30. missed posting the last couple of days which were Wednesday 6.3; Yesterday 6.9 Christmas pub lunch with family yesterday and chose the roast turkey with trimmings I did have half a roast potato but donated the Yorkshire pudding (!?) to brother in law. If anyone knows the area we...

I use erythritol and have done since I started keto and low carb lifestyle 4-5 years ago. It helped with the transition. I try and use less than I did and have it in my mid morning coffee and if I’m baking low carb cake etc. There hasn’t been any reliable research that links erythritol to cancer...

I’m wondering if it’s the weather? I’ve just posted I’m feeling down in the dumps. My husband died 3 years ago at the young age of 62. Some days are worse than others and I’ve fallen off my keto style in the last 2 weeks. I’m back on the list for a back operation after getting my hba1c back down...

Good morning everyone. Disappointed with the start of this weeks results at 7.4. It’s been in the 7s for nearly 10 days now and I haven’t posted often as I’ve been really down in the dumps. Missing my husband who died 3 years ago :confused:

@Lee83 you could have been writing my my life story and no it’s not too late. I made an appointment with my GP and had an Hba1c test so I had a starting point, even though I knew it was going to be bad, it was 93! I started taking metformin again and told my doctor I didn’t want insulin as I...

Those are brilliant results @IanBish and @bolingbroke you've put me to shame. I’ve gained 2lbs but that’s no surprise. As I said in Fasting BG post I’ve had visitors all week and eaten enough mince pies to give Santa a run for his money! I’m so cross with myself and don’t know how to cope with...

Well this week has been a write off. I’ve had visitors since last saturday and eaten enough mince pies to give Father Christmas a run for his money and it’s not even Christmas! :rolleyes: I have tested most mornings and they've been in the 7s. Got the house to myself now so all the food...
