You're right. It's way better.

B - Half a Lidl HP roll with butter, 2 eggs, 2 rashers smoked bacon L - Wild mushroom soup D - poached salmon & cauli cheese S - pecans and cubes of cheese

5.4 today. Lowest FBG yet. Very happy. My DH always has a snack before he goes to bed and I usually have one with him (always low carb). Last night I resisted and guess that's why I was so much lower this morning.

I have a drawer full of clothes that are too small (various sizes!) and each week I have a trying on session. Today 2 pairs of Boden trousers (that I have never even taken the labels off) fit! That and my lowest ever FBG of 5.4 and another 3lbs gone since last weigh in have made me feel like a...

Completely agree. The substitutes just remind me how much I like the real thing and it sets off cravings all over again. This applies to all bread substitutes made with non bread ingredients or almond flour, coconut flour and the like. Somehow because of the wheat and yeast in Lidls HP rolls...

B - raspberries, Greek yoghurt, coconut cream, pecans L - mushroom soup D - bolognaise sauce, steamed white cabbage and grated cheese.

Yes the are very seedy and will give you all the fibre you need for a day. I sometimes add golden linseed and chia seeds to my raspberries / yoghurt / nuts. It's really annoying when your body doesn't respond the way you expect isn't it but I know for me the benefits of Metformin are more to...

For spaghetti try steamed shredded white cabbage. Or strips of courgette. For mashed potatoes try mashed cauliflower or celeriac. Instead of gnocchi have Brussels sprouts. Instead of rice grate raw cauliflower and stir fry. Just hope you like vegetables [emoji16]

Whenever I am feeling sad about the things I have given up eating I try and have a low carb snack that I would have considered really naughty in the old low fat days. So if I want crisps I have pork scratchings, if I want chocolate I melt. Couple of squares if 90% choc into some double cream add...

I love them. They are with the nuts and crisps in Waitrose.

B - rapberries, greek yoghurt, pecans, truvia, double cream L - cauliflower chesse D - chicken and bacon lardons in cream sauce over courgette pasta

I cannot eat porridge or Weetabix without a huge spike. IF you like a cereal style breakfast why not try some raspberries (a handful), greek yoghurt, nuts (I like pecans). You can add a little sweetener if you want to. I also add a dash of double cream if I've got some in the fridge. HAs...

I have raspberries, greek yoghurt, a few pecans broken up and a little stevia based sweetener. Obviously a strict vegan wouldn't eat yoghurt but as you are prepared to consider eggs again I would have thought yoghurt would be acceptable. Has very little impact on BG.

I use MyFitnessPal. You can scan barcodes of food for full nutritional info or jay type in the name and search. Very handy.

I read your post too and I completely get where your coming from. What I wonder is how much protein you are eating. I have also found like you that I am very carb intolerant but have recently found that if I am careful not to fill up on too much protein it helps. I currently trying to focus on...

6.4 All my reading this week have been in the sixes. After months of 8's I'm really pleased.
