Hi Just wanted to say that I joined this programme last year, left it for a while until I popped on there again. Tried it a couple of months ago and have failed to log in. Someone on another forum on here said they would notify administration (I think it was admin), but admin were away at the...

Hi After 4-5 attempts of resetting password, I've yet again been unsuccessful in logging in to the low carb forum. There is all the info and several links from many members saying to check out this low carb lifestyle, yet it seems that many of us cannot gain access. How am I supposed to get...

Hi folks Recently started the gym, through GP referral. I've only tested my BG levels pre gym, reading between 8 to 9.5. It's never been low in the morning irrelevant of whether I've eaten after 7 or not the eve before. I've recorded it twice on the two mornings following the gym and it's...

Morning folks Would anyone have any ideas why my code free meter is playing up please? I only noticed earlier to record my bg after breakfast and it's come up as 7.8. I thought that was odd and low for me, as when I'd recorded my before breakfast bg it was 11.7. I then checked the date and...

Hey everyone [emoji4] Nothing exciting, but I made my first low carb meal earlier and achieved a good bg result. On my own this evening, so I thought I'd use the cabbage laying around in the refrigerator. Chopped and boiled it, sliced the remaining courgettes, about 5, cooked 3 rashers of...

Hello there I'm going on an All Inclusive holiday soon and just concerned as to which foods I need to be careful of and what I can safely eat. Bear in mind that I'm not a morning breakfast savoury person, although I will make an effort to try something savoury, maybe eggs, etc. I don't wish...

Afternoon folks I'm fortunate with work to have the extra statutory day off, so I wanted to take this opportunity of cooking tea early for my son and I, instead of eating at 9pm every eve [emoji45] So.....with my ingredients already insitu, normally I'd include potatoes or rice, but this has...

I received my new machine a couple of days ago and am able to test without any problem. However, I must have accidentally set an alarm, which went off yesterday morning 2 hrs after my breakfast. It hasn't done this since and I've tried and tried to set it again, but with no luck. I have to say...

After only testing for one day, I found my fasting over night to be 9.2 upon waking. After shredded wheat bite size and half of a small banana, 2 hrs later at 9am, my reading was 16+ I'm not in favour of a savoury breakfast ie protein, eggs etc (I love all food), but just cannot eat anything...

Helloooo folks My dietitian said I can allow myself 2 pirtuons/meals per week of oily fish. I adore Aldis mackerel fillets in the vaccum pack, all varieties and I told her that they are high in the fat, but that it's omega 3, she said it would not have that on the pack and I should only have...

Hi, I am new to this lovely forum and have received valuable help and advice over this last weekend. Following on from that advice, I have purchased the SD Codefree testing monitor kit (mmol) UK, think it tests in the other unit too, (see you can tell how unfamiliar I am with the lingo, lol). I...
