"What have you eaten" Parallel Chat

Breakfast: scrambled egg. Still hungry so had a coffee. Felt really awful afterwards but recovered in time to go for my leg bandaging at the health centre. I felt as though it was the coffee that had upset my stomach so decided not to have any more coffee today.
This is a fairly new phenomenon - eat, coffee and feel sick and bloated for quite a while but it passes.
Came back from town and had 4 teaspoons of cottage cheese and a cup of tea. Felt sick again.
Had a phone call from the hospital - come in at 2 pm for a chest X-Ray. Went, still feeling a bit off, but recovering.
Came back. Cup of tea. Felt sick. Slept for a bout an hour. Half awake and needing to keep taking in fluid so I've made myself a cup of weak black tea and am waiting for it to cool. We'll see how that goes.
I may have an avocado, or half of one later. Have to eat but keeping food to a minimum for now.
No starches and only whatever carb is in a few splashes of milk in drinks and in cottage cheese. That's other than the 2 little ginger biscuits I had at 2.30 am when BG dropped down to 3.7.
 
@Annb I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you - hopefully these tests and medication changes will be worth it and you'll see some decent improvement. Sorry it's been a bad day for you today as well - hope that improves soon for you.

@shelley262 tigerella looks beautiful, does it taste as good as it looks? And your quiche looks so professional, not to mention delicious!

I've been out to lunch today, so it was porridge for breakfast and I had duck breast with vegetables at the pub, it was very nice.

I'm not really hungry at all now so might just fry up some courgettes with a couple of fish fingers for tea.
 
Avocado for breakfast. Black tea.
Planning to snack on cottage cheese at lunch time.
Ham salad for later.
I'm hoping this will stop me feeling sick when I eat.
I have to go out for an appointment with the optometrist at 1 pm today. Lots going on with my eyes- might be independent of all the rest, or it might be associated. Not sure. We'll see what she says.
 
@Annb hope your tummy settles soon and that all these tests are helpful.
@jpscloud the tigrellas do taste lovely but there again all home grown tomatoes I feel are in a different taste league than most - especially imported supermarket ones. Quiche delicious too - panda pantry do a high protein quiche recipe not only the golden panda pastry but the filling suggestions. Based on his ideas the liquid used instead of cream and eggs is blended cottage cheese with egg - really lovely.
Well my long seaside day out was amazing - perfect weather sunny but around 21 degrees and wonderful sea breeze. Lots of walking along the seashore.
We did have fish and chips by the seafront - although in a box rather than the paper that used to be used. Thankfully it was cod @jspcloud and George also had a small portion of chips so I tried one. It was more about memories and was fun but will take a picnic as usual for future outings like the low carb quiche we had for tea which was tastier.
I also had one scoop of pistachio ice cream mid afternoon served in a tub but it tasted very sweet. Nearly 10 years of low carb eating have definitely changed my tastebuds!
Back to normal today low carb granola breakfast, hummus and celery for lunch and salmon with veg for dinner. ( I have some dwarf black beans ready) Plus news on my runner bean plants - the flowers recently produced at the top of my plants look like they are setting so may get a few runner beans - fingers crossed!I
Have a good day all.
