[QUOTE="donnellysdogs, post: 631616, member: 17713"] You can make up the carb loss in fat by making things like blueberry muffins with ground almonds.. Less than 10 carbs per muffin, berries and cream? Tomorrow I'm making apple muffins but there is only 1 cup of apples for 9 muffins.. This is a new recipe as my Practice Manager has let me help myself to apples off his tree. This again is lower carbs and good amounts of healthy fat from nuts, chia seeds, flaxseed etc.. It sounds like you think of fat as being fat so to speak... Trouble is, none of the ingredients are cheap if people are budgetting. I know of a young lady on this forum that gets better levels from blueberries and greek yogurt than porridge or toast. T1 just like me and her levels reflect what mine did when somebody suggested I had porridge for breakfast. I'm sure she won't mind me saying but after her blueberries this morning her levels only went up 0.7ml. Brilliant compared to when she eats far more carbs and personally I only have 3 teaspoons of yogurt or double cream with mine. I downloaded liads of ketogenic diet and paleo books from kindle and make some snack things each week. My weight has now remained the same just from adding a few snacks in. If I haven't had 60g of carbs And I been working I do add in a complan mix with almond milk to ensure that I get a balance of carbs. [/QUOTE]
