The egg and bacon muffins will freeze and can be microwaved from frozen. Assuming you used milk, one veration to try is a mix of double cream and maybe a little water.

I assume you are taking the milk into account.

See the link I posted. (In real life it could still result in a large hospital seeing at least one case most years.)

Kidney issues with metformin are very uncommen but not unknown. (less then 10 cases for 100,000 patient years) When I started on Metformin I looked at the risks and was more concerned about being run over while crossing the road to collect the Metformin then the increased risk of Lactic...

Virtahealth charges are setup differently when a person is not self funding. People finding out about lowcarb and still feeling the need to sign up to Virtahealth will tend to result in self funded pt needing more long term surport then many people sent to Virtahealth by their insurers and/or...

Virta health is now selling their services on a "payment by results" bases to the US health insurance companies, so they only get paid if a pt improves A1c and reduces drug costs.

Are the carbs worth the thrush?

Contect Prof Partha Kar (@parthaskar on Twitter) he was responsible for the national role out of Libre and is very willing to phone people's consultants to "explain" the rules to them.

I hope the squash is suger free, as otherwise it will increase the amount of suger comming out the other end, and hence increase the thrush.

Empagliflozin is a SGLT-2 inhibitor, hence be very carefully if you combine it with a very low carb diet, as there is a risk of DKA without BG first becoming high. Personally I would strongly request a blood ketone meter and test strips so you can get to A&E if you start to develop DKA...

Gliclazide increases inslin, this inslin forced your excess blood glocose into your liver. Hence when you stop Gliclazide your overfilled liver may dump this glocose into your blood. You may find your BG improves over the next few days if you double down on limiting carbs. (Some of us also...

If you decide to keep to a strict very low carb diet, your blood pressure may drop quickly, so be aware of that risk and see your GB if you get the symptoms of low BP, as the ramipril may need reducing. Personally if it was me, given your BG levels I would just eat/drink beaf (with a little...

Please outline to us what you eat/drink over a normal week.

Have you had a resent full blood count? One reason for a low A1c (4.1%) is red blood cells not living as long as normal, if it was me I would be asking questions about what is going on. (Internal bleeding is also a possibility) A Freestyle for 2 weeks is likely to give useful data an...

These BG numbers makes me think there is a good likeihood of your next A1c being below the prediabetes level.

Make more food the night before and have it cold for lunch. Salads of all sorts. Frittatas, you can make and freeze them, then take out the night before Cooked meat/fish Tinned fish Or have a cooked breakfast and skip lunch.

Stopping the drink along with advoiding anything that contains suger (including natural suger) will greatly help with removing fat from the liver. Both fruitose and alcohol are converted by the liver into fat, often some of that fat remains on the liver. As well as your weakly 24hr fasts, try...

Eat protein (eg fish that looks like fish or meat that looks like meat along with eggs) along with the fat that naturally comes with it. Advoid low fat meat, eg have the skin if you eat checken. Additionally make your body think it needs more muscles by doing activities like resistance...

It is "low-carbohydrate, low-energy" eg the Newcastle diet done with real food, not a LCHF. It looks like the 8 week blood suger diet being done in a primary care setting.

Thanks for reminding us what it is like living in a "country" with a Labour govemenment.....
