    What have you eaten today? (Low carb forum)

    This is an amazing list, thank you so much for sharing! Two slices of the Fathead pizza had a negligible effect on my sugars so I will absolutely be trying some of these! :)

    What have you eaten today? (Low carb forum)

    Happy Saturday everyone :) Well with it being Saturday and Eurovision tonight I had another go at Fathead pizza. I used a little more almond flour than the recipe called for and it turned out wonderfully this time - plenty to keep me going tonight and probably tomorrow too. The other half even...

    Another case of 'what am I doing wrong?'

    Thank you for your response. I do need to lose weight as I am very overweight, but maybe I should be prioritising BG for now instead! I am currently eating to my meter, so I will continue with this.

    Another case of 'what am I doing wrong?'

    Apologies! My weight is what's not improving at the moment. I am managing to keep my sugars at an okay level.

    Another case of 'what am I doing wrong?'

    Hi Terrytiddy :) Congrats on your great results. It sounds like we're doing very similar things. I weigh 100kg at the moment. I test my BG regularly as per the recommended guidelines (in the morning, before and after eating etc). IF is intermittent fasting, so I usually do either 16:8 or 23:1...

    Another case of 'what am I doing wrong?'

    Hi all, Sorry for another one of these threads but I could use some advice! I've been doing LCHF for three weeks in combination with IF (usually at least 16:8), and I am not seeing any results. I currently eat between 1000-1200 calories a day, with under 20g carbs, between 50g-80g fat and 60g...

    PreDiabetes Help

    Hi MrBlueyezz :) Like you I was diagnosed with prediabetes a few weeks ago and I am still relatively new to all this. I find having a blood glucose monitor very useful, as it tells me exactly what happens to my sugars on eating and tells me what foods to avoid. The cheapest one I think is the SD...

    What have you eaten today? (Low carb forum)

    Another 23:1 fast today hence my 'hodge-podge' dinner tonight to make sure I ate enough for the day! D: Two chicken and chorizo kebabs, a toasted low carb bagel topped with salmon pate, pepperoni crisps with chicken tikka mayonnaise dip, and two slices of ham wrapped around brie. Washed down...

    Low carb bread

    I buy low carb bagels (http://www.lowcarbmegastore.com/acatalog/Low-Carb-Multigrain-Bagels-340g-Pack-of-6-LK105.html#SID=73). They're a little expensive as they're imported from America and need refrigerating (ideally freezing) upon receipt, but they're great for filling up with meats and cheese...

    What have you eaten today? (Low carb forum)

    Happy hump day all :) 20-24 hour fasting seems to be becoming the norm here but I noticed a few pounds off the scales today so must be doing something right. Sugars even went down to 5.5 today - haven't seen a 5 in at least a week. Dinner: "Breakfast" bagel - low carb bagel, sausage and herb...

    My Fitness pal

    Fruit has a lot of carbs from sugar. What did you have in your omelette? My Fitness Pal should show you the carb breakdown for each food and tell you where the carbs are coming from.

    Evening everyone! Did a 24 hour fast today. Broke my fast with a low carb bagel filled with ham, emmental and spinach, with an almond milk mocha. Found ready bottled almond milk cold brew in Sainsbury's - loving it!

    Did you go for the brownies and greenies this time too? :)

    What have you eaten today? (Low carb forum)

    I'm not as keen on the chocolate brownie. Still good for 2g carbs but given the choice I'd take the blondie every time. The greenie does look nice though.
