Type 2s: What have you eaten today?


Seems reasonable to me theres a Toby's carvary down the road from me that does all you can eat breakfasts daren't go near the place.
 
3 rashers of bacon fried egg and 2 slices of livlong bread

Beef in low carb tortilla with pepper mushroom onion avocado salsa verde goats cheese and 2 glasses of red wine . BG went from 8.3 before to 8.4 2 hours later. So this is a safe recipe
 
It was down to 7.3 just before I went to bed. The spike was 2 hours after but not as huge as I was expecting (that's my last pizza til at least July)
 
Black coffee
40 mins treadmill in the gym (where else?)
9 a.m. - second gym session
10.15 - 1 whole egg, 5 egg whites (omelette) two slices of bacon
Lunch - roast lamb, two small yorkshire puddings. On roast potatoe. cauliflour. Water
Dog walk
Afternoon snack - small granola bar (I needed it) double espresso
Tea - pea soup and roast lamb
I will eat some blue cheese later (treat) and 2 sq or Lindt 90 dark chocolate
This is all after a week end where I have had 5 gym sessions since Friday evening.
(T2, Oct 15, diet, exercise, metformin. Lost over 90 lbs so far and 8 inches on my waist)

Hi Sean
Well it was Rugby League the Canberra Raiders had a 1 point win great game. Our local Rugby side the Brumbies played in Perth this week so had to watch on the idiot box. Had a good win as well
Cheers
 
Thankfully less than yesterday but I'm having self control issues, the word moderation is out the window. I'm going to try walking in the morning before work, but the road to hell is paved with good intentions.
