[QUOTE="Resurgam, post: 2126387, member: 355878"] When I was taking Metformin I got into the habit of going out in the morning without eating - to be safe. When I stopped taking the tablets and tested my blood glucose I found that I was better off eating my two meals a day early and late and I have continued doing that. In the morning I make myself a huge salad, with eggs and cheese or meat, and have a cup of creamy coffee. In the evening I have meat or fish and a stir fry of low carb veges, and another coffee. As long as I stick to low carb foods 10 percent carbs or less there is a lot I can eat. A couple of times a week I might have a small serving of frozen berries with cream but sometimes don't feel the need for anything more to eat. There are bars of high cocoa chocolate in the fridge, and I have eaten some these last couple of days, but they were there weeks ago. I just eat as I fancy really, rather to any routine. Just at the moment I am not eating much at all, since I got really overheated on the Saturday of the bank holiday - I am just making sure I am drinking enough and waiting for things to settle down into whatever feels right. Yesterday I ate radishes and chocolate for breakfast - not quite at the same time. Very strange. [/QUOTE]
