Oops! I put this under GD ... which I was thinking meant "General Discussion" but now realize is more likely "Gestational Diabetes". (Facepalm) Sorry! How do I fix that? :oops: Mod: Fixed

Recently I've seen dandelion leaves being sold in the salad section at the grocery store. I was just outside in my yard and noticed a bunch of dandelions had popped up seemingly overnight (how do they DO that?!) I'm gonna get those suckers. But now I'm wondering ... should I EAT them? Do I have...

Yep, peanut butter is just fine as long as it's not loaded with additional sugar.

@Marvel_champ, your message breaks my heart. I know the pain of losing a furry friend. It hurts and it hurts and even after time goes by and the hurt subsides, it doesn't take much to bring it back. You were lucky to have such a great friend, and I'm so sorry this happened to him. Given all...

1st breakfast: Lemon cheesecake square (sugar-free, low-carb, homemade) 2nd (hobbit) breakfast: Latte, low carb bun with sugar-free chia jam, ricotta cheese with blackberries Lunch: Lentil soup and a salad (arugula, cherry tomatoes, cubed gruyere, avocado, plus oil and vinegar), lemon cheesecake...

Was just sent this: http://www.engadget.com/2016/05/06/cardiff-university-microwave-glucose-monitor/ The microwave thing is a little freaky. But then again, apparently the level needed is way lower than what you'd find in a cell phone. Something to consider when/if it's available in a few years...

I've made this a couple of times now and love it: http://ketodietapp.com/Blog/post/2014/03/10/Keto-Egg-Fried-Rice

A Montreal musician! Little Scream: Love as a Weapon

Indian. Hands down.

You can call me Delia for sure! :) It's funny, I didn't really do much cooking before I got the news last year about my elevated blood sugar levels. I bought a lot of ready-made stuff, or did takeout. Like, low quality thai (rice rice rice), or sushi ... from the grocery store. It wasn't even...

@Diamum5972 I forgot to mention using chia seeds in sugar-free jam! It takes about 15 minutes to make from start to finish and it's delicious. Put some berries, water, and sweetener of choice on the stove, heat it up until you can mash the berries with a fork, take it off the heat and stir in...

Fasting BG levels back down this morning after a good night's sleep! Woo-hoo! Am now on the commuter train heading into work, listening to the ladies ahead of me discussing how sugar is in everything these days. Yup ...

Hello! I have a variation of the recipe at the end of the following blog post almost every day for breakfast: http://alldayidreamaboutfood.com/2012/10/grain-free-hot-cereal.html Ground chia seeds were also an ingredient in some AH-mazing salmon burgers I made over the weekend.

I'm late to this thread, but have you considered using chia seeds (whole or ground) as a binding agent? Or eggs? For example: http://alldayidreamaboutfood.com/2015/08/low-carb-chocolate-cherry-granola-bars.html Another thing I've seen is mixing in melted coconut oil (1/4 to 1/2 cup) with a...

Try not to worry too much! Recent experience has shown that this takes you further down that spiky road ...

Ever noticed your blood sugar spike when you're stressed? I was up for most of last night, worrying about a deadline coming up in a few weeks. Too bad I didn't have my work laptop with me ... I could have used my stress-induced wakefulness to power through some of it. Anyways, my fasting BG this...

Hi there. I'm from Montreal, Canada. My boyfriend's from England, and has a pre-teen (Canadian) daughter (whom I occasionally trick into eating "healthy" low carb treats -- hah!). We've spent a few Christmases back in the motherland with his immediate and extended family, shuttling between...

That sounds delicious!! The only thing I'm missing is Sukrin Gold. It doesn't seem to be available in Canada at present and I haven't found an alternative yet. My guess is that it will make its way here eventually. But in the meantime, the flavour combination you suggest (cran+cinn+orange) is...

Now you've got me thinking that I need to find room in my kitchen for a dehydrator.
