    LIDL Rolls

    I managed to get 13 of them earlier today. I cleared out what they had left. I'm hoping that they do freeze okay as I currently have 12 of them in the freezer. Only down side to them I see is that they look like some one burnt a really bad apple turnover and then covered it in bird seed. On a...

    Post Your Recipes Here!

    My GF makes this. Its amazing. it also makes about 20 servings so it can be frozen as well. To reheat from frozen, each portion needs 5-7 minutes in a 800w microwave. From chilled about a minute will do. Breakfast Bake Ingredients: 14 eggs 3 red peppers 6 sausages 6 slices of bacon 1 chicken...

    Depression - Bad Day

    I've no Idea why my profile said 1.5 it should have said type 2. I was diagnosed a little under a month ago. I went to the doctors for some more tests as he believed I was suffering from something called Bowen's Disease (a form of skin cancer) which I am but its easily treatable but it meant I...

    Depression - Bad Day

    Sorry, for posting here but I don't want to worry the GF any worse than she already is. It's just a bad day. I'm looking at my life and the future and all I can see is endless tablets, endless medical appointments and I just don't see why I should bother. If diabetes is progressive then all I...

    Food diary help needed

    Umm, just been informed by the GF that the thread title says dairy rather than diary. To be fair I'm dyslexic. I do manage to catch most but the odd one, two, or half dozen mis-spellings sometimes slip through

    Food diary help needed

    I will do shes not in right now but when she gets back I'll get her to give me the complete recipe and they freeze perfectly that's why she makes such large batches as she freezes them in individual servings, that way if she goes out and I start to feel peckish all I have to do is take a bag out...

    Food diary help needed

    Okay I've managed to work it out and I'm quite chuffed with myself that I did so :) I used this site http://www.fatsecret.co.uk/ to get the information for each amount and then just increased it until I had the right amounts. The entire batch looks scary figure wise until you divide it into...

    Food diary help needed

    1st foot check

    thanks I honesty had no idea what she was going to be checking and seeing as I rarely if ever got to the doctors its not like I know her well enough to ask when she was so rushed.

    1st foot check

    I've got my first proper appointment with the diabetes nurse this Thursday - I did see her last week but the appointment had been mis-booked so she had to re-book it - She mentioned checking my feet well not to sound like a total idiot but other than checking I've got two of them and that each...

    Food Confusion

    Got a friend checking on her way to work for me tomorrow as she walks past an Icelands every day. The doctor told me two tablets twice a day as directed. Fair enough the diabetes nurses told me to cut it down to one tablet if I got an upset stomach but she also told me I should be eating a...

    Food Confusion

    Thanks for all the information. It's been really helpful. I think shes going slightly overboard but apparently she's allowed to. shes decided that bread brought from a shop probably wouldn't be healthy enough - she seems to think that I'm going to kick the bucket at any minute, it's sweet but...

    Food Confusion

    I don't know why 'our' girlfriend is cooking for me but I know why 'my' girlfriend is cooking for me and that's because she's banned me from the kitchen for and I quote 'you have been naturally gifted with the ability to burn water'.

    Food Confusion

    My Girlfriend and I are confused about exactly what kind of rice she can cook for me and what type of bread is suitable to eat, obviously in small amounts. So much of what we are being told is either confusing or conflicting. Also what kind of cereal is acceptable? I was recently diagnosed with...
