I noticed after I replied that you had 90 some previous posts. Sorry (I did tell you I wasn't the brightest) but I'm glad you're getting back on track.

I've just had a small apricot after my lunch. I'm still amazed that they are only 3 carbs and they don't make my numbers dance. When they are available they are my go to snack.

Hello @MadMat and welcome aboard. You've landed in a really fantastic forum for help and advice. I've only been here since last August so I'm still a bit hesitant to give advice but I have been helped enormously by the forum and my hba1c dropped from 54 to 44 in the first 3 months and I believe...

Thank you.I kept thinking "chinese 5 spice" in my head but I did't know if it was a combination of spices or an actual thing or something my strange mind had created. I should have googled but will look for it. Cheers

I only went and did it! I used this in the end because I already had all the ingredients. https://thebigmansworld.com/keto-pancakes/ They taste great (if a tiny bit gritty) Thank you for all the encouragement. ..

Today's menu Skipped breakfast- Lunch -(tastes better than it sounds) fried beansprouts with kippers and cherry tomatoes. I wish I understood seasoning better. It tasted almost like Chinese take out and I'm sure there must be spices or something that would make it even more so. Dinner- Gammon...

Yup.I'm pretty sure I'm still in ketosis. Consistently less than 20g carbs and still losing weight. The strips have gone from the very darkest purple to a kind of weird grey that isn't even one of the options.

"once opened use within 90 days"

I keep my carb intake to less than 20g a day. Many days I am less than 10g I have ulcerative colitis which, while having been reasonably well managed on meds for the last 20 years, used to flair every 3 or 4 months. Since adopting keto last August it has not flaired and my day to day symptoms...

I'm sure they would be fine. I opened our black pepper grinder (bought as a tub of peppercorns with a plastic grinder on top) tipped out some peppercorns then put them in a bag and bashed them with a rolling pin. it worked just fine.

When you eat out here there are usually options on the menu for a range of steak sauces including peppercorn. It was always my favourite and I was missing it. This afternoon I googled keto peppercorn sauce and got this...

I buy these on Amazon £5.49 for 100 and I only use one now and then

Lovely husband is aware I'm feeling a bit miserable so catered the food all day in the way he does best (take-out) Yesterday's food- Breakfast- Mcdonalds sausage and egg muffin minus the muffin and plus a ketoroma seeded roll from the freezer. Lunch- 2 slices toasted heylo bread with streaky...

Catch up post- Feeling sorry for myself.Lower back pain that my hypochondria says is my kidneys failing but is much more likely to be a result of the physio working me hard to correct the limp my new knee has developed. Sore knee, sore back, gastro stuff probably because of the amount of time I...

My experience in November was unusually good. There were lots of meals that my family provided and there really wasn't a breakfast option but the nurses did try their very best to accommodate me. They would phone down to the kitchen and arrange plates with just whatever protein and veg/salad...

I'm at home recovering from surgery and think the fact that I'm eating lunch every day might be more about filling time than hunger. I rarely eat lunch on work days. I do want/enjoy it though so maybe my body needs the fuel. I don't suppose it matters if it doesn't change the numbers...
