2 egg omelette with cheese Coffee and full fat milk Asian broth soup Apple and peanut butter Roast chicken, roasted cauliflower, brussels and sweet potato, tiny bit of gravy. BS 8.4, 2 hours after eating. Successful day in the end…

Its a short flight only norway to Uk via amsterdam. I will go with the cheese option just in case, will be yummy anyway. Good idea! Thanks

I am going on a trip this week and wondered what everyone else takes as food for the journey, my flight is at 6.00am so wont have time for breakfast. My plan was an apple and some nuts but maybe you guys have some great ideas, has to be very portable.

I love this site. Everyone is so supportive and gives sensible caring answers learned first hand through experience. Its hard to know where to begin. At 54 me and “sugar” have been in a long term relationship my whole life and it hurts to know he doesnt want to see me anymore, and hes taken...

You are all right of course. And true, it is grief, knowing it can never be the same again. I will try and focus on the positive, like 2.5 kg loss in 6 days. My goal is 25kg no timeline

I am a control freak too and this feel totally out of my control

I need help putting everything in perspective as I’m having a meltdown since diagnosis. I’ll give numbers and stuff to see if I’m overreacting or if doing something wrong. First reading fasting 7.3 cheese omlette 2 eggs….. 8.1 tested before lunch 8.3…. Opened a tin of what I though was a...

When you say it like that this spike doesnt seem so bad. I think i was just disappointed. Baby steps though :)

It does, thank you. I will look into them!

Im having many emotions in the last week, mainly crying. But also anger. Im so angry at myself for letting myself get into this situation. Every donut and cake I knew what I was likely doing but was in denial and this is where I ended up. This doesnt just effect me, it effects my husband...

Thats great progress. Im finding I’m making myself snack just to get some calories on. Just not hungry at all. Hopefully that will level out after a little while on the medication. My brother has diabetes in remission so fingers crossed I can too.

It was 8.5 yesterday…..7.1 this morning

Thanks I’ll look into them. I live in Norway so dont have access to somethings. But will definitely try.

Thats a great weightloss! I have dreamt of those kind of numbers for years. Now this is forcing my hand maybe it a good thing. Have to keep chin up and look at the positives for sure :)

Remission is see!!! Well done you! Thats the goal……

Yes, I like all of the above luckily. Im not not a fussy eater so I will find a good plan like you all have. I had a particualarly dumb day. The intention wasnt to cut calories just a combination of not hungry, and thought it was less carbs than it was. I think we are all conditioned to...

Thank you all again. The intention wasnt to cut calories I was just in a panic about over eating. Honestly i wasnt hungry at any point, I think the metaformin is taking away my appetite so the amount wasnt an issue. But I agree with all of you, it wasnt a healthy start. Will definitely do...

Wow, amazed at how well you have both done! I think this site is brilliant, you help people more than you realise. Definitely boosted my mood. As you know its a daunting diagnosis, now made a lil easier. Thank you !
