Thanks guys.. Not sure about lactic acidosis but will look it up? I've never really had anything explained other than reading leaflets..so I thought I would pop on here and I may learn a few things.
I only socially drink and not that often because I usually drive but with Christmas coming up would like to have a couple ..

I think I may give up on food and go for a liquid diet.... Red wine and vodka. Maybe I could make up my own version of the Newcastle diet

Chuck beef or chicken or lamb in and brown adding water if sticking. Add stock to get to right constituemcy. Chuck the lot and onions and leeks in slow cooker with some tomato paste and a big handful of red lentils stir taste and add a glass red wine...wait till tonight and report lol. Er salt n pepper

I'm a chuck it in and see cook. Seems to work v well. But then I grew up in a pub restuarant and have a feel for food

 

[Northernangel]

That sounds fab thanks for that..
Il try that at the weekend.. Can't do ghee.. (Gallstones) awaiting op.. but will try a alternative..,

 

[alliebee]

Its not needed. You can dry fry it all with a splash of water to stop spices sticking and use plain yoghurt before it all goes in oven or slow cooker

What, the "Newkie Brown Diet"?

 

[sanguine]

Last night I was 4.8 before eating (out) and had a Mexican burger with side salad (no bun, no chips) and a bottle of Zest low alcohol beer. Then met friends at the pub and had just a pint of Kentish Fife & Drum 3.8% bitter (I was driving). Not a proper experiment because I didn't test at 2 hours after starting to eat, but back at the house after a coffee at bedtime I was 5.5.

Sorry alliebee, got carried away without finishing it! Especially like it cos we are a couple with gluten, lactose & diabetic needs
becomes a bit of a challenge. ps Enjoy the wine - we do but white wine goes 'ping to the head and bloods/ x

 

[sanguine]

So Mrs Sanguine says 'would you like a glass of wine before dinner?' so of course I say yes and think 'Oh goody I can replicate Bluetit's experiment!'.

So before the drink I was 6.2 (whaaat!) and after the drink but before eating I was 5.3. I like this game.

I started my white wine test the other day, but forgot to check my blood sugars after. Oh dear I will have to repeat the test today
