Message: <blockquote data-quote="Salvia" data-source="post: 1495269" data-attributes="member: 278312">Hi again,  Thanks so much for the encouragement - and the practical advice!  I've never really been interested in food or cooking, and having lived alone for many years, & working long hours, I've sort of got into a routine of a few basic meals that are quick and easy.    I don't tend to batch cook, but I buy larger family packs, split and freeze, then defrost & grill as required.  You're right about not liking much red meat, I usually have turkey or chicken, with some pork (which I regard as 'pink').  Red meat only about once a month, if that.  I'm retired now for a few years, so there's no excuse really, but habits tend to stick with you - and I'm still not much interested in cooking ! I don't know about doing great, but I hope I'm slowly making a little progress, even if my numbers are a bit higher and more erractic than I would like; they vary between high 5s and the 6s, sometimes even into the 7s.  I want them in the mid-low 5s all the time.  At the minute I'm experimenting with various items, adding in, reducing or leaving out, to see if that has any benefit.  No doubt I shall get there in the end.Btw - love the new avatar; suits you perfectly.  Loved the old one as well, that one also suited, so perhaps you can switch between the two, as the mood takes you.  <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite8" alt=":D" title="Big Grin    :D" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":D" /></blockquote>
