    Well I am paying for yesterdays binge episode. Been awake since 3am with heartburn, dry mouth, chesty cough and stuffed up nose this is exactly what my sleep pattern was until I was told had diabetes and took up the low carb way of life. So you reap what you sow.

    Lidl's High Protein Rolls

    Just had half toasted one side and the other cheese, a few drops of worcester sauce and black pepper. I keep mine in the freezer and just take out 1 at a time otherwise could easily eat 2 or 3 just on their own warm with a little butter. God send for me.
