    Feeling tired as if I've overdosed on carbs

    I'm knackered too. I know how you feel. Don't eat carbs so that isn't the problem, but I don't sleep well, so that could be an issue. - Anyone got any suggestions for fixing that?? Am trying to lose weight. Some one suggested that I may not be getting enough of the right nutrients. Am trying...

    Can you guess someone's gender from their avatar and posts?

    Have changed my avatar - for a limited time only - so that, hopefully, people can see that I am, in fact, female. Sent from the Diabetes Forum App

    Breakfast?

    Thanks for the reply. :) It doesn't seem to make any difference whether I eat or not, or what I eat. Strawberries are a big no no for me, but I get your point about berries. I've tried that, with nuts and seeds, and scrambled egg, sliced meat and various combinations of eggs and stuff. Doesn't...

    Metabolic Clinic?

    Could this be something to do with the stuff about weightloss surgery that's all over the news at the moment. It seems that the NHS has now decided that it's the miracle cure for Diabetes. - needless to say, they are delusional. They seem to be completely ignoring the fact that not all diabetics...

    BG 9.1 where did I go wrong with my dinner tonight?

    Hi Marie, You've had some great replies here. All I can add is, think of it as a learning opportunity. The strangest things can cause spikes, and everyone is different. - I can't touch strawberries. I don't even know how high they send me because I'm asleep before I get to the hour mark to...

    Breakfast?

    Ok, so I'm not good in the mornings. I never have been. I'm naturally nocturnal, I think. I often feel sick in the mornings - it doesn't make any difference what my blood sugar readings are, and, before you ask, no, I'm NOT pregnant! I've felt sick in the mornings for as long as I can remember...

    Ideas for portable LC snacks (unrefridgerated)

    Babybel cheese. - Yes, they probably should be in the fridge, but I take them on tour with me and they survive quite happily in my bag and suitcase for weeks on end. Sent from the Diabetes Forum App

    Don't involve yourself in the blame game.

    Have been "off" the forum (in more than one way) for a while. - Really good to see that this helpful and extremely supportive thread hasn't died. Thank you to all contributors. Sent from the Diabetes Forum App

    Barefoot Advice

    I don't think crocs look bad, - I borrowed my then nine year old nephews crocs wellies to wear in a mud bath eisteddfod field last year and the kids in their flowery wellies wanted to know where I got them. :) Sent from the Diabetes Forum App

    Celaric?

    Like celeriac, but, seriously, unless you, and your family really love it, wear gloves when cutting it - especially grating it! and use a separate chopping board!! It transfers, and lingers! Sent from the Diabetes Forum App

    I think I need help....

    Surely if you take the sugar out of a marshmallow, it becomes a figment of your imagination. How do they even DO that?? I feel a trip to Sainsburys coming on . :) Sent from the Diabetes Forum App

    What is it with jeans?

    Found some nice ones in the Indigo range at M&S. Not usually generous in their jeans sizes, but I'm 2 sizes down from last time. I've lost some weight, but not 2 sizes worth! Also, Fat face ones do great things for bums! - or so I'm told. - I tend to keep mine carefully covered at all times...
