[QUOTE="ziggy_w, post: 2274806, member: 323454"] Hi Mrs T 123, Wow, what a fabulous journey you've been on. It is no small feat to get down from 86 to 36. Really well done. Even if a bit higher right now due to stress and weight gain, I am sure you can get there again. Congrats on the 10 pound weight loss, btw. Like many T2s on here, I've been cutting carbs to lower my blood sugars. Initially I was probably a little higher carb, but have naturally drifted lower over time and am now usually (but not always) somewhere between 10g and 20g per day. As to what I eat -- today for breakfast I just had just a decaffeinated espresso with cream and erythritol (a zero-calorie sugar alcohol with no effect on insulin and blood sugars). Lunch: Two eggs scrambled with eggplant puree and butter. Half a roll (very low carb recipe from the website mentioned by [USER=336957]@Hotpepper20000[/USER] above) with butter and smoked salmon. About 15g of 88% cocoa content chocolate. Dinner: Rabbit in an estragon-mustard-cream sauce with cauliflower rice and two glasses of dry red wine. So, altogether around 15g of carbs. You might also want to have a look at the "What have you eaten today?" thread in the low-carb diet forum for lots of other fabulous ideas. [/QUOTE]
