Those are brilliant results .. well done , nice to have good news .. you got a 41I've received my blood test results:
Cholesterol slightly worse than last year (not a surprise based on my high calorie diet and lack of exercise due to illness):
HDL 1.0
LDL 3.8
Total/HDL 5.3
Hba1c 41 - this is down by 1 (which is a surprise given how ill/inflamed I've been over the past 3 months), so happy with that.
Yes expensive all these diets ..Thanks @Kat100
Shame about your curry!
Today:
B: Porridge
L: Egg & beans on toast
D: Quorn fillet provencale with lentils & quinoa (the sauce was basically chopped toms with peppers, but tasty)
I've made "Jamie's granola dust" for breakfast. Very easy and a quick taste means I'm looking forward to tomorrow's breakfast. I know all the ingredients are high quality and there's no added sugar, but it's worked out to be twice the price of any commercial cereal!
This is a veggie nightmare ..Look what I found, thanks to @Avocado Sevenfold...

Rarer than hen's teeth! Customers were being rationed to two packs each - who'd had guessed we'd be panic-buying courgettes?
No aubergines :-(
Supposedly going to be short supplies until April.
Today they had courgettes in Tesco .. no limit .. @Avocado Sevenfold@Ledzeptt Congratulations on your blood results and your haul of courgettes! My daughter managed to get me a bag of frozen courgettes in Morrisons last night as I am craving a load of roasted Mediterranean veg. Hope the frozen stuff doesn't go weird in the oven.
Might be going out for dinner tonight. I have just made @Kat100's fridge cake for later. First attempt. So far so good.
@Avocado Sevenfold the cake worked , so pleaded if it did , because I don't stick to a straight forward recepie .. xYesterday
B: glass of almond milk and two big strawberries (was running late for work)
L: Lidl toast and hummus
D: went to Nando's for the first time. Had a veggie burger without mayo. I wasn't tempted by the white roll it came in - I think I am hard wired now to not eat white bread. Same can't be said for chips though! Lovely sprinkled with peri-peri seasoning. Ooops! I didn't test afterwards, but was 6.1 this morning so not worried. Kat's fridge cake is delicious!
I am hankering for Mediterranean veg so much at the moment. Must be all those news stories. Planning to roast a pile of random veg tonight
Sounds lovely @Ledzeptt are you eating more , hope so .. xThanks @Avocado Sevenfold and enjoy your night out and the cake.
B: Jamie's granola dust (very nice)
L: Hummus sandwich, quorn cocktail sausages & hula hoops
D: Pizza & salad
I'm still having golden milk every day; tend to have it before going to bed.
I forgot the cinnamon@Avocado Sevenfold the cake worked , so pleaded if it did , because I don't stick to a straight forward recepie .. x
I love adding different things now , cinnamon and other flavours etc xxx
Same ,I do eat bread but not white bread , chips I am afraid to say ....yum yum yum x
So you had the chips and not the bread , now I call that reducing carbs , brill x
Omg that's so creative lolI forgot the cinnamonCoconut, hazelnuts, pecans, sunflower seeds, vanilla, rum, orange zest, chilli flakes and a few fresh cherries. I can guarantee it wont last a week
Yes, I used the core ingredients of peanut butter, chocolate and coconut oil. Just chucked in anything else lying about. Cherries add a little sweetness - like a fruit and nut bar.Omg that's so creative lol
Impressed .. it's double points for you ..
It's just the high % chocolate, peanut butter and coconut oil .. they are the core ingredients..
Goodness yours is Posh lol
I mainly do almond and coconut flakes , but now I have to think of other ideas lol x
It's very addictive ..
Yours is a fruit and nut chocolate fridge cake ..Yes, I used the core ingredients of peanut butter, chocolate and coconut oil. Just chucked in anything else lying about. Cherries add a little sweetness - like a fruit and nut bar.
More cherries tonight in with my roast veg. Sounds weird, but is really nice.
