    What have you eaten today? (Low carb forum)

    Yesterday: B: 2x coffee (with whole milk) L: nothing D: roast chicken and veg with gravy (ready to cook from Asda - it was on offer and sounded low carb, from the info.) 1/2 punnet grapes, 2 low fat yoghurts and 1 postage stamp sized piece of dark choc (reading shot up to 12.1 after that, so I...

    But I want it - I want IT!!! Oh well, at least the coffee is keeping most of the pangs at bay.

    Savoury Breakfast, low carbs?

    Ooooh! I didn't even know there were such things! Thank you very much, I'll hunt those up next time I'm shopping. On my list now. I particularly like the sound of the 1st two - especially the Waitrose one, a) it has sunflower seeds and pumpkin seeds in it and b) you can get it from Ocado...

    Savoury Breakfast, low carbs?

    We bought one - Mum's microwave downstairs broke - it stopped working entirely. Ian did a lot of research and we hunted everywhere until we found exactly the same make of microwave, it had a slightly different design of buttons, but in the same places. She hated it, she hated it so much she...

    Oh I can easily do that with Crisps, so much so that I've had to simply stop buying them at all. Mmmmmm, Tyrells Ready Salted... mmmmmm!

    I'll look into it, thanks Catherine. Seems I can't do that Catherine, Nothing happens when I try filling in the fields - it just keeps on asking me to fill it in.

    Savoury Breakfast, low carbs?

    As it happens, I've got some smoked salmon... (dunno what Burgen Bread is, that's new to me.) A couple of poached eggs might be a nice change... hmmm. Made hummus a couple of days ago, haven't thrown it away yet, but I'll have to - it tastes gopping! Yuk! Wasted a perfectly delicious roasted...

    Savoury Breakfast, low carbs?

    No Lidl. Love scrambled eggs (couldn't eat them every day) but I have to go downstairs into my Mum's kitchen to do that, this means I run the risk of being cornered by Mum and having her find something to complain at me about... she manages to find something almost everytime. (she has memory...

    Extra Info Under Posts?

    How do you get things to show up (in other colours) under every post? I see that most people have this, and I can't figure out how to do that - can anyone help?

    Savoury Breakfast, low carbs?

    Hi, I'm thinking of trying this Hi Fat /Low Carb diet for a while, see if it helps. I've been doing the Slimming World diet and had some success with it (lost around 2st 6lb since Sept last year) but I worry about the diabetes aspect of my life. I feel I should be doing something about that...

    Thanks Muzza3, it did feel like a big step, which is silly, all I was doing was ordering a meter etc. I think that 6.9 one was just starvation, it was a reading 6 hours after a meal - after all. Think I'll pop over to the Low Carbs HiFat area and look for something I can eat for breakfast...

    1st Meter Reading Today

    Yes is really does sound counter intuitive, but then so did "eat as much veg as you like" for Slimming World, and I managed to loose weight on that, so maybe I could do it on this Hi Fat/Low Carb thing - I'm just concerned that I might not loose as much as quickly and I'm so big that I want to...

    Oh really? Thanks for that - explains a lot - and a relief!

    Thanks, I really need it! Because it's not just for testing, it's been like this ever since I started slimming - it's the hunt for something edible AND slimming at the same time, that's the hard part. And shop bought meals usually have too much of one thing or another to truly qualify, so I'm...

    I was already keeping a food diary, it's no extra bother to add a reading here and there - the bother is in having to wait 2 hours before I can have a nice yoghurt - a 2 hour delay for a pudding? - Argggghhhh! :arghh: But I want to test the meal alone without the complications of a yoghurt:smug...
