Just after the fasting check - was immediately before eating, since as soon as Ian had stabbed me I went and toasted the crumpets - funny that my just before another meal check was a lot lower than my fasting reading, fasting was 8.7, and 2 hours later it was 9.9 but before the next meal it was...

Yes, post-crumpet was 2 hours after - the meter has a little bleep alarm. Unfortunately I missed lunch, (went to Asda, so it turned into Lun-inner - more like actual dinner by the time it was cooked) I keep meaning to cook a Mexican chicken dinner thing (from a recipe book), but today I found an...

That sounds so like me! Awww, I like you already, John.

That's why I like them in dishes with some kind of sauce - like Sweet and Sour, or Chilli (with very low chilli), or Bolognaise, or my Fakhani Curry (not quite Makhani, but still tasty) - but I'm looking for more dishes to make and stash in the freezer, so I have more choice. Thinking of a...

I want to try that, or something very similar tomorrow so I can see what difference it makes with the test meter, as opposed to today's food. (which was 1 crumpet - I haven't had one of those for... well since at least January this year.) I do like the lots of veg option, but I can't eat it all...

I just got one - I went for the CodeFree one after advice from people here on this forum. Testing for the first time today.

Hi folks, had my first meter reading today. I got my husband to do it for me, while I looked away and tried to pretend nothing was happening. Lol! Yes I know I've got to do it myself, but one step at a time. I need to segue into these things gently. Okay so 1st reading was: 8.7mmol/L, before...

I'd like to know what these scrambled egg rolls look like, sounds delicious. Diamum5972

Lol! We don't have a Lidl either, plenty of room for one and lots and lots of new houses popping up like raddishes in spring, so lots of new people around, but no Lidl, no Morrisons, no Nettos, and no new cinema that they kept promising us.

Oops I forgot to mention coffee.

It's okay, no need to quarrel about it - I won't have any pizza.

Yesterday... B: 3 slices 50/50 Kingsmill toast with 2 eggs and tomatoes Lunch: Chicken and Veg soup - from my stash in the freezer. And chilli and spinach with peas and beans for dinner:

My sister-in-law is also allergic to Quorn, it seems it's made from mushrooms, and she has a mushroom allergy. I understand there is a veggie mince (maybe from Tesco's) I wonder if that is also made from mushrooms or from some other veg, maybe soya?

I was never that mad about pizza's as such, it's just less work than making something yourself, and it was a new shop, recently opened, and my husband adores pizzas so I knew he'd go there and then scoff things in front of me... but never mind. My daughter made cauliflower gravy when we visited...

Don't want to order, as I've only just got the other pack in the post. But I wanted to get the cable.

5 packs costs quite a lot, and I can't see anywhere to put a discount code in. Do you know if there's a discount for the cable too?

I might used 3 ounzes of the tinned Pinto Beans, or I might have just used a single tin, it was probably a whole tin, because I can't remember having any left over - because I couldn't be bothered with soaking the dried ones overnight, and boiling and all that faff - didn't think about 3 ounces...

Wow! That's a lot of beans! I'm glad you liked it. Got my test meter today, reading the book now. My husband has volunteered to do the stabbing part - I'll just bet he will...! Not looking forward to it - at all.

Challenging is definitely the word! It's taken over my life so much that I don't have time for anything else anymore. I hate it.

and maybe this one: The Everyday Diabetic Cookbook Paperback – 30 Sep 1995 by Stella Bowling (Author) These are just a few I've been looking at on Amazon...
