I am newly negative after 12 days. I felt rubbish for about four days then recovered, but was tired most of the time. I was very afraid of getting it and was scared when the positive happened. I am still feeling exhausted if I overdo things, and a bit of nausea which has been there since the...

I can’t bear to look on this anymore due to the pic......

I buy Profusion protein bread, organic as well, and no nasties I can find off Amazon or EBay - usually in packs of 5 and then I freeze four and defrost as needed. I pay £14.59 for five. Bit pricey but I really like it and it does toast, though obviously not like normal bread !

Me too, it is a shocking state of affairs, they are 30 years behind.

I buy this all the time, either from Amazon or ASDA. I love it and find a slice of it very satisfying. Highly recommend it !

I have taken to having the occasional Protein bar from Natures Way - mainstream supermarket bars, and 9.4 per bar. Tasty too and a nice treat.

Sorry I meant Vitamix not vitamin - predictive text Agh !

I vitamin a variety of nuts, add sunflower seeds, coconut and a bit of erythritol and have that in a bowl wish some raspberries, milk and a bit of cream, it tastes like granola and is quickly made and easier than cooking to make toasted granola. I did a batch this morning and it keeps well in...

Dear All, Just an observation. I have had readings of around 1 to 1.5 mmols during this very hot weather. I was also in Singapore and Kuala Lumpur in March and April and my readings were quite a bit higher than usual with no real change of a strict low carb diet. It also seems to take longer...

Sorry the stress comment was Brunnaria ! Apologies !

Thankyou for your replies ! I am now cooking and the foods appealing most are soups, slow cooked meats and a few veggies. Eggs not appealing much as yet and not fish. Kind friends brought stuff when I was in bed ! My numbers are around 7 - 8 now, which is great since they were at 10 - 15 when I...

I wonder if there is any more I can do as a Type 2 to aid my recovery from pneumonia? I am diet controlled only and with low Carb can manage my numbers well. I got a bad chest infection on Dec 18th which flipped quickly into pneumonia by Boxing Day. I was pretty ill and had a cloudy lung and was...

I have one or two Graze Mini Protein balls - not much, 2g Carb each and definitely keep me going early without the nausea factor at all. I buy the lemon and honey ones. Not even addictive at that time in the morning !

I am going to be near Melbourne so on the coast at least. My friends had a very hot 40 most of last Christmas there, but I'm keeping my fingers crossed for 30 this time ! Perhaps it will be autumnal ! The interesting thing for was the no doctor had ever mentioned temperature as an issue and I...
