Haven't been here much as life has been very hard - my mum's been in hospital for a few weeks and sadly is on an end of life care plan. Anyway, having got that information off my chest, I have booked my GP appointment to get my bloods retested and find out if I'm doing any good with my low carb...

She's got lifelong mental health issues and has had a series of infections which has resulted in a sharp decline - she's being admitted to hospital either today or tomorrow so she can be properly assessed

I still haven't booked it! Having real problems with my mum at the mo and she's just being admitted to hospital, so it's proving tricky to pin anything down but I'll try and get it soon. I really want it done way before Christmas so I can plan my eating!

Breakfast - 'muesli' (few oats, desiccated coconut, nuts and seeds) with coconut milk and blueberries. Tea Lunch - eggs and bacon, SF jelly Dinner - fajitas (chicken, peppers, onions and seasoning - lots of cayenne!) in a lo dough 'wrap' - verrry tasty!

My liver readings were normal again last time I was tested, but they didn't do blood sugar (not sure why). I'm quite new to it all so I didn't really know what to ask for! I'm going to ask for it to be done within the next couple of weeks as I really want to find out if I've made a difference...

I'm not anything, quite yet - I was at the lower end of prediabetic (Hba1c of 42) with a fatty liver and not happy with myself, so determined to do something about it. Ive been low carb since June time and the suspense is killing me, so I need to get bloods done again a.s.a.p!

Yes, absolutely!

I really haven't lost much weight (about 8lb) but clearly it was all round my middle. I'm still very overweight but hey, it's a start!

Today's diary Breakfast - wholemeal toast and butter with sweet freedom dark choc spread, tea Mid morning - coffee and cream and an Atkins bar Lunch - assorted continental meats, celery, nuts, sundried tomatoes and mozzarella balls Dinner - pan fried steak and broccoli (chuck it all...

I think I'll try again with the almonds. Coconut flour does have an odd twang to it somehow

Breakfast: home made 'muesli' (small amount of oats, desiccated coconut, pumpkin and sunflower seeds, chopped nuts and extra pecans. Had coconut milk and blueberries. Absolutely delicious! Alpen has nothing on me [emoji57] Lunch: smoked cheese, chicken, celery, salsa and guacamole. SF jelly...

Yes I thought so too! I just like ice cream [emoji5] given the choice I'd have Cornish vanilla but I'll take any of the Halo Tops for dessert. Or a jelly and cream. The dessert landscape is not as barren as I thought it would be!

Breakfast - wholemeal toast, butter and marmite Lunch - paté and celery ... sounds a bit odd but quite nice to fill the celery up and use as a scoop. Chocolate chia pudding, coconut cream and blueberries Snacking on walnuts Dinner - steak, broccoli and carbonara sauce (home made by daughter...

Thank you! I did just find a recipe but I like reading about ones that people have actually tried.

Slightly off topic ... went to supermarket to buy a few bits and bobs for me to snack on and for meals (everyone else in the house is a carboholic) and was amused to see someone with almost the same basket contents as me - steak, chicken (cooked for snacking), nuts, cheese, avocados, salad...

My favourite snack is pecans and cubed 'Mexicana' cheese together. It sounds a bit odd I grant you, but is delicious!
