    Hello and questions

    Same to you with bells on @Paul_ Is it weird to be a wee bit excited? I'm not expecting amazing things because of my faux pas with the nicotine lozenges but I do think it will be heading in the right direction. I wonder if we will be here comparing notes years from now.

    Low Carb Foods to Take for a Hospital Stay

    I'm quite proud of these ham and egg muffins. They are about 1 carb and freeze well. I'm thinking if someone brings two or three in a cool bag to evening visiting it will make a fine hospital breakfast.

    Diet for Type 2 Diabetes

    Hi @Iain7819 Welcome aboard. I was a bit hesitant to post this because I don't want to be seen as promoting ready meals but there have been times in my life (when I was a single mum of two toddlers and working full time) when something that went in the microwave was all I could manage. If you...

    That's where I get them (now I know how to make Baileys they will complete my Christmas hot chocolate. I did notice @lovinglife said Lytham and they ship from Lytham and wondered if it was the same place.

    The Low Carb Food Company have ceased trading!

    We are living the same day. I got the same text and have just put mine in the freezer. The scones look suspiciously like the rolls.

    Can you clever people help me learn how to count these carbs

    Thats interesting @Rachox . I did notice you posting the two bars and no lunch on the what you eat forum. I was kind of thinking if I have a wee supply of bars in hospital they would do in lieu of a meal. Right now my lunch tends to be and egg and an inch square cube of cheddar at most so I'm...

    Can you clever people help me learn how to count these carbs

    @Antje77 You both got me looking at the websites and just to confuse things further the fitbakes website says less than one net carb per bar

    Can you clever people help me learn how to count these carbs

    The website likely does say tablespoon. It was me who threw the teaspooons into the mix, thinking about what I would use.

    Can you clever people help me learn how to count these carbs

    This is so useful @Antje77 Thank you....but oh my did that 7.8 send me in a spin. It was my mistake a bar isn't 65 grams its 19. It has 65 calories I misread. So applying the calculation 0.12 multiplied by 19= 2.28 Thank you , thank you

    Can you clever people help me learn how to count these carbs

    I've been stocking up on goodies to take to hospital with me and I'm getting in a muddle about what you subtract from totals. I understand how the US/UK fiber/fibre thing works for net carbs but I'm confused re polyols whatever they are. The first pic is for fitbakes bars. The info is for 100g...

    Milk in tea/coffee

    I honestly think you can get used to anything. Years ago I trained myself to drink tea without sugar or sweetener and now it tastes strange with. Up until a couple of weeks ago I was carrying about a wee flask with alpro almond no sugars (my answer to your question) but I'm just about trained on...

    I'm very glad you posted that @lovinglife I was so excited I never even looked at the nutritional info but yes I could do a quarter or even a half with lots of butter and or cream and call it a meal. Thank you

    Me too and I am irrationally thrilled to see scones. My mum is in her eighties and has dementia, tea and scones is/was our secret treat when we could sneak an afternoon together. i'm tearing up thinking it might be back on the agenda.
