It was the smallest muffin in the world but...

my BS reading went to 11.7 :cry:
I had a nice tea of chops on a bed of cabbage with celery and then I got a craving. There were some mini muffins in the cupboard and I thought one little muffin can't do any harm so in my gob it went with one bite. I am shocked and stunned and learned my lesson the hard way. I wouldn't care I haven't eaten cake since Christmas [before I was diagnosed] and it wasn't even worth it, it tasted all chemically and horrible :x
 
It is tempting though....I was in the bakery yesterday getting bread for the rest of the family and the smell was nearly enough to make me buy some pastries ( my passion)...but I resisted :(
 
Cugila, the kids are going to have to do without cos i am not buying anymore... EVER!!! :lol:
You are a stronger woman than me Belinda, but it has scared the poop out of me so I won't be doing it again. That's a thought though...I could just hang around the bakers and sniff :D
 
Oh no! don't do that :lol: I could almost taste the pastry...pecan and maple syrup...yum....it was torture. I suppose I should have been chuffed that I resisted, but I felt deprived....oh well pass the lettuce :lol:
 
Sam,inhaling forbidden foods has absolutely no carbs whatsoever !!One of life's little pleasures for a diabetic. My rule..if it's not in the house i am not tempted to eat it.
 
Oh yes Belinda you should be well chuffed and I am learning that sniffing is the way forward. Fortunately after careful eating today my BS is back down to 5.5 so I feel a lot better than I did last night.
I am definitely not bringing anything else like that into the house or as I smoke outside perhaps I could get the kids to eat their 'forbidden' foods outside haha...going to put it to them and see what reaction I get :D
 
Sam,

If you fancy a muffin, these are low GI and go really well with a mid-morning cuppa.

woah!!! that's scary. I pinch them off the kids too, that'll have to stop. A chinese only makes my BS go up to 9.5 :?
 
Just make sure there are no UV lights around so that you can't be readily identified as a Danish user :lol:

I got worse yesterday. Went to a training day at work and forgot all my food. the canteen was shut but they usually give us free stuff as we are training. I tootled along for a cheese scone cos I thought it would be ok but they had none only flipping rainbough doughnuts left...so in the gob it went again. Didn't dare check my BS. Got to lunch expecting something nice and it was an egg sarnie, a bag of crisps and an apple!!!! I despair...it's the first time it's hit me that you have to be so organised or you're up the creek. I am going camping in May so the planning is starting now :D
 
We're off to Padstein for a long fortnight in May (and I mean looooooong, my outlaws are coming too) and I've promised dragonette some Rick Stein fish & chips - will I be able to resist? will I hell!

Regards, Tubs.
 
I think I'll be OK. I wanted to kick start the weight loss (despite good results over the last couple of months I'd stalled for the last three weeks), so over the weekend I allowed myself a lovely piece of haddock and shared some chips with dragon and dragonette at 1hr 6.6, 2hr 6.7, 4hrs 5.9, which didn't disappoint - oh and the weight loss was kick started which is even nicer.

Regards, Tubs.
 
wooo that's good... here's me chuffed cos my BS is 5.9 after a salad :lol: I found by eating summat slightly naughty it re-started my weight loss :)
Glad i am a savoury person usually cos fish and chips don't knock my BS up as high as something sweet so I can live with that. I try to avoid the chips but I end up pinching a few off the kids mmmmmmmmm
