Me neitherMy partner has given up chips and chocolate for lent. I haven't given up a specific thing as I find low carb tricky enough but I haven't had chocolate since Christmas Day.
After the dreaded shredded wheat this morning I think I will give chocolate a miss HA! HA!I am Sat eating a Crunchie Bar, (and girls I am allowed ) -the Endocrinologist said Weekend is " treat time" provided I am strict during the week. Well, it all started going pear shape on Friday, so might as well end the weekend - come Monday I am going to be serious and get my morning fasting figures under 6 (would like 5).
Haha @liam1955 , just 3 crisps. Although there was a time not so long ago where i could have easily eaten 3 bags. Which probably led to the situation I'm in now@TooManyCrisps - When you say you had 3 = did you eat 3 BAGS?
I figured out that you must like crisps from your Avatar name. I'm using my real name (when I remember!) And I've changed my picture to one of myself, and I am noticing more and more people are putting "people pictures" on. I eat toast, I use brown Hovis Wheatgerm bread - you could try it out. Test before and then 2 hours later test again and see if? It has any effect. What is okay for 1 person - may have a different effect on another. But, it's about trial and error. William
That's very interesting @britishpub. My son is just over 6ft, weighs about 11.5 stone, and is very fit as he cycles everywhere. We live rurally, about 10 miles from town, so he cycles to college, to evenings out etc, plus he plays a lot of basketball and squash. He is taking his driving test later this month and, if he passses, will almost certainly not be cycling as much. But I'm sure he will eat the same amount as now.My eldest played County level Rugby and was part of the Newport Gwent Dragons academy at one stage. He stopped playing 18 months ago, as he couldn't continue at representative level due to knee and ankle injuries ( he refuses to play just for fun ) Now at 21 he still eats as if he is still playing, and the weight is starting to pile on.
Keep warm its cold here in London but no snow yetThe snow is laying here in Scarborough.
