    What have you eaten today? (Low carb forum)

Talk about difficult: beside being lactose intolerant, I can't take alcohol, anything containing MSG, can't eat eggs as they are, only cooked "in" things, lettuce gives me gut pains, and now the carbs and sugar: I...

    Aaah! I like my pasta with the bolognese sauce or a ratatouille sauce with meatballs on top, unless we're having lasagne of course.

    Hba1c Test: Biased Towards The Most Recent Weeks

    I found this thread very interesting on this matter: it's a bit complicated, but it's worth reading through. https://www.diabetes.co.uk/forum/threads/writing-bg-management-app.56644/

    Well, supplies arrived yesterday, so after 6.7 last night, I was pleased with a 5.6 this am. Been out today, hence late post!

    Thank you for that Rachox. It was interesting, but as I'm not on meds for D, that leaves carbs as a cause, but I can't remember the last time I had a midnight feast in the dorm, so to speak; occasionally I might have a few nuts or perhaps a piece of very dark chocolate, but that's about it for...
