    Shape Changer!

    I'll hope for the same (the weight loss rather than losing my trousers!)

    Shape Changer!

    I started a Low Carb diet after being diagnosed with fatty liver, and finding I was just over the pre-diabetic lower threshold. Although I've lost just 8lb (in about 8 weeks) my body shape has changed and most of the weight has vanished from my waist. Has anyone else experienced this? Not...

    My own 'notella' for breakfast after a brainstorming session on how to make it yesterday. I melted a square of 85% chocolate (all I had in the cupboard!) and mixed in some 3 nut (pecan, almond and peanut) butter. Short zap in the microwave to soften it et voila! Much better than the nasty...

    Yes I think it would be equally nice without the oats. As I mentioned I'm not diabetic - yet - so am still eating 'good' slow burn carbs in moderation x

    What have you eaten today? (Low carb forum)

    It's very simple - I don't really measure but as a rough guess I'd say 2 tablespoons porridge oats, 1 tablespoon of desiccated coconut and a couple of teaspoons of chia seeds. Enough coconut milk to cover dry ingredients (about an inch above) stir well, and pop in the fridge overnight. It...

    Oh yes I would have too - I'm not diabetic but just inside the prediabetic range so theoretically I can still eat what I like ... but I don't want it to progress any further so I'd rather take action now. It's not so bad - for dessert I had chocolate halo top and double cream. What's not to like...

    What have you eaten today? (Low carb forum)

    Oh that sounds ideal! Yes, a spread to go on toast. I bought a three nut spread (almonds, pecans and peanuts) and thought about adapting it to make it chocolatey [emoji5]

    I've lost count of how many times it is now we've been - my husband lived there as a child when his dad was an army officer, so it's like a second home. Love it!

    Off to Cyprus for a week on Friday - not overly worried about how I will low carb whilst there! Lots of meats, cheeses, salads, thick full fat Greek yoghurt and nuts will be really enjoyable! Shame I won't be indulging in lovely Cyprus potatoes, but I can cope with that. I don't drink much...
