    I bought a hand held blender from Argos and use any old jug. It was tricky at first but I hold the blender about 3/4 of the way down and blitz for about 15 seconds depending on how much froth I want. Hope this helps x

    Baffled

    Thanks Zilsniggy. I do have a little butter in the mornings now. You may be on the right path there. I did notice the other day that my BS actually came down after eggs and bacon. I don’t often eat in the mornings and usually break my fast about midday but I will try this. X

    always hungry.

    Well I had a go last night. It felt very odd having a tablespoon of just pure butter in my mouth. But then it sort of melted into pure indulgence. Delicious. I had some more first thing this morning and it did not raise my BS. Thank you. It’s will become my routine now.x
