[QUOTE="DavyG, post: 1327860, member: 360485"] thank you [USER=337910]@SWUSA_[/USER] I love mushrooms so that's good to know I can have them several times each week. I also love cheese and I've cut myself down on it because I used to have cheese on toast so too much bread and way too much cheese but, scrambled egg and cheese sounds great and I wouldn't feel the need to overuse the cheese :) in fact I think I could eat that without any bread. [USER=327005]@CherryAA[/USER] Thanks I'll get some balsamic and put some flavour back into my meals. Both my parents ate everything meat, fish or vegetable. Unfortunately although I tried every vegetable that they tried I cannot stand them, I can eat a very small amount of carrot if I hide it in some tomato soup or eaten with meat or potato, but things like cabbage, cauli, sprouts, swede, parsnip, turnip, sweet potato are all disgusting, as for salad veg, I have (maybe 10 times in my life) eaten a lettuce leaf in a BLT or bacon cheeseburger and only because it is tasteless and I didn't mind. but no onions, garlic, cucumber, avocado, squash or anything else like that, I've tried them all and I'd fast if the only other option was to eat them. I love meat, I'll eat any from snake to dinosaur if I could find it ;) Should I be taking some vitamin supplements to offset my lack of vegetables? I do love all fruit, dairy and nuts but they seem to be a bit of a minefield knowing some are high in sugar or fat. My friend in America said a little peanut butter on a cracker is ok as an occasional treat. At present I'm avoiding flour as much as I can, I eat around 1 to 2 slices of wholegrain bread per day and the one time I had a small slice of apple pie and a spoonful of ice cream my BG went from 6.1 to over 14 when I checked it 2 hours later, it panicked me, especially as previously I'd eaten a small piece of pork pie that was very fatty and the pastry only made my bg go to 9 [/QUOTE]
