In particular oats, because I want to try and lower my cholesterol levels and I love porridge.  Today I used 35g oatmeal (courtesy of my daughter, I prefer the normal type) with water, cinnamon and then a splash of soya milk. 5:35am 4.8A small snack of olives and nutsTravelled to work7:35 am.  5.5Had my porridge8:42 am.  5.99:42 am.  5.710:41 am 5.0So, it seems porridge may be back on the menu <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" />. I'll try the rolled oats tomorrow. At tea time I tried half a tin of 3 bean mix in water. I heated then cooked with tuna and cheese and some yoghurt. I didn't have anything else with it because I wanted to test the beans.  Oh, I should say I had one of those benecol yoghurt drinks. Pre meal 4.91 hour later. 6.0Another 40 minutes later 5.2They seem ok too but I'll have it with a slice of toast next time.I may try a small baked potato some time this week, for lunch. I have had a small amount of potato about 4 times in the last 12 months. It's a useful cafe meal if I'm out and about during cold weather.</blockquote>
