I went in on a Sunday evening to get induced, thinking I'd probably be back home by the Monday night. That didn't happen! Between the Sunday and the Tuesday I was given the induction pessaries 3 times but nothing was happening, baby was just far too comfortable! Ended up getting a section on...

My fasting levels can be anything between 5 and 10, lately they have been hovering around 8-something. I know all about low-carb - I lost 3 stone just before I was pregnant (my little boy is now 3) then put it all back on and now I can't seem to get back on track and my health is going downhill...

So fed up of feeling ill and tired all the time. Had too many days off work sick this year because of being ill, exhausted and run down. So far I've had tonsillitis, a kidney infection, bowel inflammation and just yesterday severe dizzy spells and tiredness. Been put on medication, then more...

B: toast & boiled egg L: small portion of homemade chips D: battered fish, noodles & sweetcorn Total carb overload, feel sick and blood readings rubbish. Back to eating properly tomorrow as hate feeling like this!

4.5 Woohoo!:D

So far I've had bacon, mushrooms and 2 fried eggs for brekkie, and don't feel like eating another bite for a few hours at least!

Don't think I'd be brave enough to try and bake this! I'm not crazy about bread anyway so don't feel the need to find a low carb substitute. However I am missing pasta and rice! Going to have a go at making leek lasagne, courgette spaghetti and cauliflower rice.

What's an oopsie??

Lots of great replies here! Thanks xx I've been back to low-carbing seriously only since last Sunday, (after last Saturday night's Indian takeaway carb disaster!) But I've stuck with it all week and I've been feeling great. Although today I don't think I had enough to eat - I had some Greek...

I was just wondering how long people have been low-carbing! Also how much weight have you lost and what kind of blood results you have had as a result. Any other weird and wonderful changes or health benefits? :)

I'm really looking forward to Christmas and hopefully being able to fit into a nice dress for the work night out! Christmas dinner itself is pretty low carb friendly as it is basically just a roast with loads of veggies. No roast potatoes for me thanks! I'll skip pudding but will probably have...

Feeling much better this evening The carb hangover has worn off! Had eggs, bacon and mushrooms for brekkie, Greek yogurt &raspberries for lunch and chicken and veg for dinner. Back on track and hope to not feel like that again!

As the title says... Been eating rubbish all day, no reason for it either. Fridge full of proper food but I ended up skipping breakfast then had a chicken pasty, crisps , chocolate biscuits and for dinner an Indian takeaway. I ate rice, curry, bread and poppadoms! Tested my blood sugar...

Not sure that would be filling enough to keep me going all afternoon?

I'm not even sure what quinoa is!

So, it's getting cold outside and salads seem less appealing at this time of year! Does anyone have any low carb (preferably warm) lunch ideas that I can take to work? Need to be able to heat in the microwave or take in a flask. Soup seems like the obvious choice but what can I put in it? Are...

Has anyone else experienced a loss of appetite on lchf? I'm currently halfway through a cheese omelette with buttered mushrooms and am really struggling to eat it even though it is really yummy! This has also happened a few times when eating my salads at lunchtime. I eat a few bites then simply...
