    What have you eaten today? (Low carb forum)

    I know the mystery frozen surprise meal all too well :D So far Just 2 eggs and a small avocado. Feel a bit miserable cause caught the dreaded lurgy, though I don't really feel that bad considering. The wild levels the brain will go to to sabotage you when trying to lose weight and keep the...

    What was your fasting blood glucose? (with some chat)

    Didn’t realise there was multiple threads with different chat levels. 6.8 this morning, wonder if it’s usual or cause I did end up catching the lurgy regardless of sleeping downstairs, I haven’t been testing long enough to establish a trend. Pre and posts have been normal/good though throughout...

    What have you eaten today? (Low carb forum)

    I had a small slice of sourdough in the last few days after avoiding it for 2 weeks and had a dodgy gut afterwards, had a few tests a few years ago for a constant dodgy gut, no allergy, not coeliac, but said I might just have an intolerance to it so avoid it, Did for a while and tested it on...

    What have you eaten today? (Low carb forum)

    It was a new one to me too. In weighing a cauliflower I was preparing I’d realised at least half the weight was in the leaves and stalk so I decided not to just put them aside. I had a quick look up to see if they were edible, I imagined they were anyway but just to be sure. I just ate some...

    What have you eaten today? (Low carb forum)

    Ooh, used to love these if similar, would get ones with a little tin with a watercolour fish on the box it came in. Fish related, funny to say after last few days only thing I'm really craving at all is smoked mackerel. Lunchtime, I finished the bacon, 3 slices, fried it up with a little gem...

    What have you eaten today? (Low carb forum)

    I did book an appointment a couple of weeks ago but now I'm double guessing thinking that might be the case that the results would be somewhat skewed and don't have money to throw down the drain, so might leave it just a wee while longer. My usual glasses for distance to correct astigmatism...

    What have you eaten today? (Low carb forum)

    Ah okay, thanks for that, good to know. :) Funny, with pasta/rice/potatoes or bread or whatever on a plate I wouldn't dream of eating 250g meat before but probably better for me, wasn't hungry at all for hours and hours after, like you say, very satiating. This is it, to be sustainable I think...
