5.8! (she shouted from tossing boat)

Envious of that SLC bread - looked at their website. Does not seem available here, even their bread mixes. However, found I can get Sukrin bread mix - think that's a Norwegian brand? - and LC stats on that look good as well as protein content so will try it out soon. Down side of course is...

@ziggy_w those waffles sound delicious! I've just bought myself a pizzelle maker and plan to try and make some keto style recipe for these ultra flat little waffles (probably with aniseed since that's traditional) but now I want to try a more meal-ish waffle too! Oh, food, a pretty simple day...

Good grief, it really makes me wonder sometimes where some of the doctors - and the nurses - get their advice. Glad you've at least had some clarity obtained re symptoms and hopefully all will be back in train soon!

Oysters Kilpatrick prep: thinly slice and chopped rashers of streaky bacon, sprinkle oysters (in shell) with said bacon, add a couple of drops of worcestershire sauce to each oyster, grill a few minutes until bacon cooked and crispy (if your bacon will do that - some of these processed bacons...

6.3 this morning, I blame rotten sleep - and US Election stress!(Ok, I'm in Australia, but still counts :))

Sorry, that's my Fasting Blood Sugar (early morning reading before eating). I think that I would totally ignore anything from strips so out of date as you mention! My device is the ACCU-CHEK mobile and it won't work at all on an out of date cassette. Remember, as others have commented, that...

@annabell1 Happy Birthday! I definitely could not be trusted with that cake in my fridge - looks magnificent! @zauberflote Yes, your neighbours should share their bounty. Love a good oyster - raw with just lemon juice, under the griller Kilpatrick or Rockerfeller style, or even dipped in...

Ah, but see in my signature where I started :eek:! We've all got to start somewhere and I still have heaps of weight to lose but I'm on the right path now. Lots of variation in these forums about the exact way folk control their blood sugars, but common theme for sure is 'low carb, low carb...

You can do this Puffler, don't panic and as others have said have some patience with yourself. Keep giving the right care to your body and it will adjust in line with your new, good habits. The progress of others here gives me great hope that I can reach a good place and optimal management...

Nuts! Ahhhh, fond memories. I will have them again soon(ish) - and in appropriate moderation. Down another 1.6kg this week, though no real change in bodyfat % (still it's not up so that's a good thing!). Have busted through the 10kg barrier so running totals now down an even 11kg and -6.4%...
