    In a bit of a conundrum...

    Thank you for replying, and for the very helpful suggestions. It's going to be hard as I'm not a good vegan, I avoid all animal produce, but admit I tend to go for easy quick options which are basically very high in carbs. You've given me some good things to consider with regards to...

    Thanks for this, I'll definitely look to buy some, I'm vegan so there's not much for me to eat (have been for over 30 years).

    In a bit of a conundrum...

    Hey everyone, I'm a oldish newbie, I posted here back in December 2021 as I'd been told I was pre diabetic, just on the cusp. Well I'm now formally diagnosed... it was inevitable. I have a couple of questions, and know this is the best place to ask so I'll give a quick backstory in the hope...

    Hi Dr Shoddy, thank you for replying. I usually eat around 6/7pm and try to go to sleep for two hours or so around ten o'clock, the rest of the night I am awake with my daughter, usually she doesn't sleep until 5am (she's awaiting melatonin from sleep clinic) and I either don't go to sleep...
