Coffee with cream.

Um... I'm on my 6th day of following the LowCarb/High Fat Banting diet, and I am measuring everything to make sure I know what I am doing. I am loving coffee with cream, can't take coffee black - it's just not possible, and cream is better than milk. Loving the breakfasts cooked in butter, and...

Real Coffee and double cream, but no food until 2pm, then 3 eggs fried in butter, a courgette, 3 tomatoes, some of the pink mushrooms I've recently grown, 4 spears of asparagus - and I cooked 4 rashers of streaky bacon - gave the dog one. It was totally YUM!

I just noticed that I seemed to feel hotter, like a 'hot flush', just after eating some things. I ought to test now I've got more strips. If I could just remember what things.

Probably a very slight exageration. o_O I was just asking what kind of 'ill' people meant, when they said that the rise in blood sugar made them feel ill. I do stretch, try to anyway.

Hi all, I have now and then heard people saying they feel ill when their blood sugar spikes. But 'ill' in what way? I do sometimes feel hot, but my mother has the house heating on super hot until it's about 90 outside. I sometimes feel sleepy after a meal - but I've always felt that now...

Brekky: Low carb toast & coffee. Think I might not open a new loaf when this one is finished (couple of slices left - new loaf in freezer,) and just have a bit of cheese or something first thing for a while. (Lunch/Dinner Yesterday: Just Veg:)

ROFL! I just had brie, 2 small bits of gorgonzola, about 7 or 8 piccolo baby toms (yum!) bresaola, cucumber and 2 bigger toms: Avalantino (Asda) & Camarque (Sainsbury's) so I could do a taste test of them. Oh and about a 2 inch section of a long pointy red pepper cut into thin sticks. Put it...

Nothing yet but water, just about to go for an HbA1c and other blood tests. Oh... Turns out that's tomorrow. Had lovely Chicken and Tomato Rissotto last night with Cavolo Nero, Jumbo Prawns and Spinach cooked with Double Cream and Parmesan, a touch of mace and freshly ground nutmeg, because I...

Water and 1 cup of coffee. Feel really sleepy with the warm sun streaming through the window. And I really like the effect of the gelatos test I created this morning with my new set - adding water with the free brush worked brilliantly. Makes for a nice background.

Yeah I guess so. The idea of doing it faster is very appealing but the practicalities often don't match your expectations. Means I can think up a late brunch, if I want to.

I've given up and made myself a cup of coffee - not a lot of point when the scales say I've gained 2lb just since this morning and just on about 100ml or less of water. Grrr! Lol.

Hmmm, just under a pound per day eh? Sounds possible then. Meeting is at 5.30pm tonight... I could have dinner once I get home. And yes, I do realise it might not work. I think I'll hold fire on having a coffee for as long as I can - that might help too. Thanks for the heads-up on the...

"Swing across"??? what does that mean please? Can't test yet, the company still haven't delivered my next batch of strips and I'm all out.

Just weighed myself this morning and if I can loose another 3/4 of a lb I'll have lost 1 stone (with Slimming World) more in actual fact since I started by trying to loose weight by myself some months before. I saw something on diet doctor today, that talked about not having anything for...

I think I was just thinking of vegetables at the time I posted this, Squire. And hoping there might be a list, so David's post helped a lot there, but there's always something else that occurs to you, isn't there? "Carbs in *" in the search would probably do the job. Thanks. I've always been...

Oh that would be handy. I didn't know there was such a thing, Thanks very much, Carol.

Darn, I knew there was something else I should have bought today - completely forgot about nuts! My BG was very high, I thought - when I ate grapes... mind you I did eat a lot of grapes. Went up to 14.2 that time. My software that I got (for the CodeFree Meter which I use) says that 11.1 is...

Oh I feel for you, I really do, I've been going through this myself and it makes me feel fractious, grumpy and frustrated - and until just the last couple of days - hungry all the time. What's changed is that I've begun to eat the high fat/low carb diet. I had something with cream and cheddar...

Thanks for that, I've tried to get it to send me the app... just a waiting game now. Got a message from Amazon, but it's not going to work - when I try clicking on it, it just says you have to sign in to do that, I go okay, sign in, but up comes "the page you have requested is invalid" - it's a...
