This morning I made some using a whey protein recipe. They were so disgusting that I ended up pouring the mixture away after cooking and eating 2. I was famished all morning! I may have to try experimenting a bit, if the worst comes to the worst. I wonder if they would work using wheat bran and...

Anyone know any recipes for low carb pancakes? I mean proper pancakes, not those nasty little squat American things, and not an omelette with a teaspoon of flour mixed in!

7, but I did skip my metformin last night as I'd had a couple of large glasses of wine.

I accidentally shared it on Facebook. God knows what my friends think! No-one's mentioned it...

Perhaps it is a posh version of the Newcastle Diet?

Hello WaG. I echo everything suggested above, plus. From everything I've read it seems hyperglycaemia begets hyperglycaemia as it is toxic to the pancreas or the beta-cells or something (poor memory for details I'm afraid! - see the book 'Blood Sugar 101' by Jenny Ruhl).

I get dizzy and/or faint if my blood sugar comes down fast (not a problem anymore on LCHF :)). It usually, but not always, occurs during exercise or other exertion. Might it be worth checking your levels when dizzy? Even better if you have some idea throughout the day of levels and can then...

I am desperately searching for some recipes which i found on a site last week but can't find at all now. It's maddening because I bought the ingredients! Anyone know of other low carb bread recipes/sites?

Hello AmandaAnne I'm sorry to hear you're having a rough patch. I'm sure people on here will have some ideas which might help allay your fears a little. I'm not too sure what you would most like advice about so I'll see what I can muster. First I wonder if your having gained weight may...

I've just asked my daughter (she's studying Art History at The Courtauld Institute - not that I'm excessively proud or anything!). She suggested work by Wayne Thiebaud. He was an American artist of the '50s and '60s and is famous for his paintings of cakes, sweets etc.

Ditto!
