[QUOTE="NeilHewitt, post: 1911792, member: 493176"] Really good suggestions. Yes, I've got a proper freezer, I should take advantage of it! For the record, last night I did a pork loin steak with some broccoli and I did have a couple of tiny new potatoes, but that's just because I'm still addicted to starches. M&S do nice little packets of veg you can just microwave, which is handy, but I've also got big bags of frozen broccoli and green beans and cabbage in the freezer. I'm not unprepared so much as lazy and stressed. Metformin is still making me dizzy - or at least, the body changes it's causing are making me dizzy. The headaches are less severe. But I'm also getting palpitations - which is a long-running problem I've had for 20+ years, but which I'd largely supressed with Mg supplementation - and those concern me, because that's the sort of thing that's likely to send me off the meds. In fact, it was them getting worse - probably due to work stress - that precipitated my exit from the diet last time around, because it was making me so stressed and depressed. Don't know if any of you have ever suffered from them, but if you do you'll know what I mean. One small step... [/QUOTE]
