    Visiting relatives. Very low carb vegetarian ideas to suggest (as suitable for me a keto near carnivore)

    Bring some nuts, too, with the cheeseboard and maybe olives and a few low carb crudités. Guacamole too. Baked aubergine dip (Baba ganoush). 90% chocolate or dipped strawberries with the same dark chocolate.

    Type 2 Exercise.

    What is the usual pattern of your blood sugar readings? And what is your average daily way of eating? I was just wondering if uncontrolled blood sugars could be impacting your health.

    In denial

    I eat greek yogurt (5%} with a very few berries (strawberries, raspberries, blueberries etc). Or sometimes make peanut butter cookies - mega easy! Peanut butter, artificial sweetener (i use stevia or erythritol), egg and vanilla essence. Stir together, cook in spoonfuls on tray for 10-15...

    It's definitely worth getting back on the wagon and also giving yourself a pat on the back for all the times you've looked after yourself well

    Cheat meals allowed?
