Hi DJ3C, I like the idea of the hidden babybell. You have put a smile on my face. I might try this with meat in a pepper. Thanks for your message too, my husband deserves a medal and I am counting down the hours.

President apparent

MrsA2, I seem to be able to demolish bags of pork scratchings without thinking about it (even scooping out the salty dust at the bottom of the bag). I had far too many salted peanuts last night to accompany a cup of Rooibos tea (strange times = strange behaviour). B: 7 rashers of streaky...

I wish you all well. If you can it may be worth buying an oximeter. This is to check blood oxygen levels in case anyone with covid19 needs medical assistance. The PM was checked with one before being admitted during the first peak. We all had Covid in September. As we have children sharing...

Thanks Goonergal, I feel like I am on a cloud! The migraines really were a BIG problem. I know you understand and also had success. Migraines can have a massive impact on quality of life. I've had the call with my GP and he assessed my true cholesterol risk based on all other health...

PDMJoker, Thanks so much for the information and well done for your own personal achievements. I feel a lot more confident about my upcoming telephone appointment with my GP now. I needed to verify something with the GP's receptionist this morning and took the opportunity to ask for my full...

pdmjoker, thanks so much indeed, you must be a mind reader. Low carb is probably impossible without increasing fat. I realise I should eat more oily fish and less pork scratchings. However, I started Couch to 5k a few montgs ago and know that my health is improving. I am also on thyroxine as I...

Delighted to hear that following a fasting blood and urine test my BG is in a normal range. I need to talk to GP about borderline cholesterol on Weds so will ask for the full results. My low carb diet has improved my health. I am so incredibly happy about this. It means that the hard work is...

shelley262 , your loaf looks amazing! Well done. Looking at your loaf makes me realise that I need to do some baking. I'm bored with cooking atm, baking is so much more enjoyable. I was put off by the disasterous pizza I made a few months ago. It was using a Giancarlo recipe which on the...

Sounds awesome!

Maglil55, I do sympathise. Be kind to yourself and I hope over time that the symptoms ease. I feel that I was fortunate as I did get better from Covid, although when ill I had no confidence that I would be ok. My daughter is 14 and has had ongoing difficulties that could be covid related...

Antje77 the chocolate squares look amazing!

Maglil55 I hope that you are feeling better. It may be worth taking a covid test just to make sure. I recall some covid sufferers had fastric symptoms. My main symptom with covid was nausea and I didn't get any of tge tgree lusted until the second week. Take care.

Thanks Ziggy_w, I was thinking that rebooking for a fasting blood test would involve a wait but have been very fortunate as an early slot was available tomorrow. We are in one of the worst hit Covid areas so I think a lot of people are avoiding going for appointments, hence the availability...

@Bex72 -- Hugs for the IBS. Ziggy_w, thanks for your kind words. It is a relief to feel better today. I made a mistake by glugging Gaviscon in the night so could not have my fasting blood test this morning. Just about to have breakfast of berries, nuts, toasted seeds and Greek yoghurt with a...

Disasterous dinner... One of my go to meals is 5 bean chilli with Quorn. I made it a couple of weeks ago and had really bad IBS after. Somewhat foolishly I managed to forget this and made 5 bean chilli this evening. I have now been in pain for hours, complete upper and lower digestive tract...
