I found organic virgin coconut oil in Tesco . Cannot remember the brand at present.

Oh melezana, that sounds like a good idea.

Apologies, my poor camera skills. 2 tbs dessicated coconut. I didn't have any though so used coconut water instead of the water. It worked ok.

Thank you @Clivethedrive I shall look out for that. My local Morrison did not have the livelife bread.

@jay hay-char there is always next month....

This was a fab dish, but I am a cabbage fanatic. I had some for lunch yesterday with griddled haloumi, as a side veg with supper and with poached eggs for breakfast this morning. Hope the recipe is readable from the pics. Of not, let me know.

I believe a 1% take up on a mail drop is considered to be a success in marketing terms. Who knows, you may win the lottery tonight or as you said, your premium bonds may be picked out. The seed had been sown. Not only that, the charity name has been mentioned in a forum, more seeds sown and...

Strips arrived this morning, glad the postie woke me up. BS level this morning 5.7. Not getting too excited as I am night shift at weekends and my body can become confused!

Well done @Squire Fulwood, it must feel even better knowing it was your efforts that has caused this. I need to practise my enigmatic smile or else I might dance around the room singing 'told you so, told you so, told you, told you, told you so'

I am going to become a grandmother, I think that is quite age inappropriate!

Coconut oil is a very good moisturiser and completely natural with no added nasties.

Very likely everyone on the forum could as we have all been through it. Some wise people will come along with help, read everything and ask questions. It does become easier and you can deal with it.

@mrmarkymark , Both of these products are too high in carbohydrates to be healthy for me.

I have given up sugar and a lot of carbs. Rice was a big part of my diet, as were beans and lentils. My health, ie, heart, limbs and eyes are an even bigger part of my life so it was an easy decision to make. I can have a glass of wine or a gin and tonic (in moderation) so life is good. It is...

I tend to go with the make it and eat it straight away method for avocado salad. The skin/shells are also a handy container. This may help though. http://www.ehow.com/how_5787760_keep-avocado-turning-brown.html

I did retest, using the other hand and it was 8. It is puzzling me. It could be something on the hand towel, I do wash my hands in the kitchen prior to testing and do cook 'normal' food for my son and friends. There is a Victoria Sandwich sitting in the fridge which I made this week. I haven't...

I had an unusual spike to 8.5 last night and that upset me as I had not had anything our of the ordinary. Also, I had hoped that my test strips would have arrived in today's post, alas no. Therefore I am being very cautious today, eggs for breakfast, cheese salad for lunch (all green salad) and...

The book, Blood Sugar 101 says test at 1 hour and 2 hours after you have finished your food.

Celeriac chips are wonderful, a favourite of mine PD (pre diagnosis).

I use marmite in a nut roast recipe which I am delighted to say I can still eat. Might make one tomorrow for the weekend when I eat on the run a lot.
