    Carb Content In Foods?

    Yes, I always look at those now. (UK ones) But you don't see those on a cucumber, beetroot, onion squash, butternut squash, things like that. And until very recently I had no idea something watery like a cucumber even had any carbs in it, but according to the list David1968 posted, there are 3...

    Low carb flax bread.

    Thanks. I wondered if it might be like that.

    Carb Content In Foods?

    Looks interesting, unfortunately I can't read any of the items on that circular representation. Too tiny and blurry. Tried to locate the source, but nothing there anymore.

    Carb Content In Foods?

    Only 2 in avocado? That's amazing! Thanks for that. Pity they don't mention onion squash, or butternut squash. But useful nonetheless. Thank you.

    Indian Takeaway, Okay for Low Carb/Hi Fat?

    I'm confused too, there are such a lot of different types of curries, mostly ones I can't eat. (due to heat) It's not spices, it's just the hot things. I love cardomon, cumin and fennel seeds, things like that - no problem at all... It's hard trying to rearrange recipes, to make a curry that...

    I did also have an onion bhagi with the Passanda, is that made from carbs do you think?

    Indian Takeaway, Okay for Low Carb/Hi Fat?

    That's what I had with the Passanda, so it must be whatever they made the sauce with. Sadly.

    Takeaway hangovers? I've never heard of that. and I've almost never had indigestion... yet.

    Indian Takeaway, Okay for Low Carb/Hi Fat?

    No don't do that, I'm feeling much better now I've blown off some steam. I'd love to know about your byriani with cardomon, I love cardomons.

    Indian Takeaway, Okay for Low Carb/Hi Fat?

    The good news (for me) is that I have discovered that I rather like butternut squash noodles, so that could easily replace rice. I had that tonight with a tomato, bacon and mushroom sauce, with scallops in their shells in a creamy white wine sauce - I've never had scallops before - so that's 2...

    Indian Takeaway, Okay for Low Carb/Hi Fat?

    I cannot adjust my taste buds to accept high amounts of chillies, my eyes weep, my entire mouth, lips and throat burns - I hate it intensely. I hate not being able to taste your dinner at all, and I hate it taking 4 hours to eat just a small part of it. Frankle I hate bloody chillies!! (and...

    Indian Takeaway, Okay for Low Carb/Hi Fat?

    Well unfortunately I don't enjoy spicy curries - if by 'spicy' you mean 'hot'. It's been my biggest problem (pre my diabetes diagnosis) how would YOU like to be relegated to mostly just 1 flavour of curry: Korma? I find that NOTHING is delicious with cauliflower rice, and fresh coriander makes...

    Carb Content In Foods?

    Ah... the only veg mentioned in there is potatoes - unfortunately. And I've pretty much figured out that those are out of my diet now. Otherwise I will look at this with interest. Thanks for posting it David. However since posting this question, I've found this, others may be interested too...

    Low carb flax bread.

    Could you roll the dough into some seeds... like pumpkin seeds, sunflower, etc before putting it into the loaf tin? And if you did how would that change the carbs content?

    Carb Content In Foods?

    Is there a list of foods, high carb and lower, and their carb content? So that, depending on our individual sensitivity, we can see what to definitely avoid, what to be careful with, and what is okay to eat. That would be really helpful. I know there is already a list of low carb foods, but...

    Indian Takeaway, Okay for Low Carb/Hi Fat?

    The trouble with Indian is that the ones everyone has stated as okay are dishes I would not want to eat as they are too hot for me - I only like the mild ones, like those I mentioned. And as people have warned - it is one I will have to remove from my diet. I did go up a fair bit - not as...
