Hi all

Yes, sometimes I have bacon and eggs. Just wondered what people's thoughts were on this product and if anyone was using it. Apparently has half carbs of normal bread.

I've not tried it but I have tried the Asda low carb one, which is seeded too, and really nice once in a while. I think it has 9 carbs per slice and just to add ... the slices are 'true size' :)

OK.... might try that one out, as the livlife product is expensive and slices are about 3 inch square so pretty tiny! But it makes the scrambled eggs a little more enjoyable!

Thank you. I am trying very hard. Soon as the sickness goes I will b able to eat more sensibly. I just thought I had to eat something and wanted something I liked. I’m eating very few calories each day probably only 500 - 800. I am worrying this is not doing me any good either. I want to stop the metformin but it scares me seeing high numbers.

Hi thank you. You seem to eat basically what I eat. I’m not a great meat eater but I’m getting by. I do eat quavers at work in my lunch break normally with ham or raspberries. You did amazing to get to 36. Well done. X.
