    Metformin will be the death of me!

    I was almost tempted to try them that way!

    Metformin will be the death of me!

    No, not from any side effects... From the size of the tablets!. My usual prescription comes in relatively small tablets easily washed down with a drink, but.. Collected my last batch and watched with concern as the Pharmacist heaved a sack at me akin to Santa Claus’ when he has a present FOR...

    Diabetic Sweets!

    Update re Sula Sweets - Mint Humbugs taste exactly like the genuine article. Fruit Mix was also very nice. No strange aftertaste. Have yet to try Buttescotch or the Liquorice. Stay tuned lol.

    Diabetic Sweets!

    I picked up some Sula sweets at our local shop. Pear Drops taste like the genuine article...almost. Strawberry and Cream were absolutely nauseating!. Initial taste was fine but then a really strong artificially chemical taste so will avoid those in the future.

    Diabetic Sweets!

    Thank you. I see some advertise themselves as zero net carbs. Interesting. As for the laxative effect I think I'm not likely to go down the "excessive consumption" route as I'm just after something to stimulate the taste buds....not any other part of my body..lol.

    Diabetic Sweets!

    Does anyone have any recommendations for sugar free diabetic friendly sweets or chocolate ?. I see a huge range on places like Amazon and am just wondering if anyone has tried anything they've enjoyed, particularly in the fruity tasting department eg Lemon Sherbet ?. I know about Werthers...

    2018/19 Football Season

    Another day, another PR disaster.. Players and staff won't be paid until takeover happens...which is now looking more and more remote. Training ground shut because there is no food or supplies for any players who turn up. Owner saying nothing. Manager struggling to keep it together. Match on...

    Chocolate

    Strawberries are less carby than Blueberries. I think they have about 1/2of the carbs. This may help :- https://www.dietdoctor.com/low-carb/keto/fruits

    Metaformin Dosage

    You were advised 4 in the morning ?? Might I suggest that there is your problem ? Split the dose, two in the morning and two in the evening. Take them with food. I take them in the middle of eating so they are surrounded, so to speak, by food and ensure you drink a lot as well. Keep them...

    Please don’t, it makes your keys sticky!

    I ate a chip! and I made cookies!

    I think you may be right although, on @ YouTube video I think it’s that they are too fond of the sound of their own voices. They rush through recipes or have such a long and wordy introduction to what they are making I’m half asleep by the time they crack their first egg. I just want @ short...

    I could do that. I just didn’t do it at the time. Could also do a chocolate version.

    I ate a chip! and I made cookies!

    I have just had a smear of lemon curd on a cookie and a smear of jam on another. Yes I know these contain sugar but it was just a taste.. And whilst the jam didn’t do much the curd and biscuit combo was very nice, turned it into a lemon cake type thing.
