What have you eaten today? (Low carb forum)

[QUOTE="maglil55, post: 2081037, member: USER=502009]@Viv19[/USER] - Other than what I suggested I wouldn't make any more changes.[/QUOTE]

Thanks for that maglil55. I’ll give it a try when we’re home again.

Breakfast LC toasted roll with cheese. Berries with Greek yoghurt.
Lunch at our friend’s son and partner’s house. They made a special effort to cook food that I could eat (after consulting his mum) Cucumber and carrot sticks with humus. Roast beef, broccoli, carrot and parsnip purée (especially made for me), a tiny portion of cauliflower cheese, some carrot sticks, clear gravy.
White wine, lots of water. Then berries with double cream. Coffee
It’s so kind of them to go to such trouble to help me stay LC. Lovely people.
Later, almonds, tea. Even later brandy soda and some cashews (couldn’t resist).
Bedtime bg 6.5 lower than I expected. Odd, I thought it would be higher again.

Thanks for the breakfast link - I might play about with that overnight oats recipe - I hadn’t thought of using hemp hearts in it. I like them in salads and think they’d give a good texture.
Your meal sounds amazing, no wonder everyone was bowled over.
 


Maglil and @DJC3 - Could you please give me a specific example of where you are seeing a problem - ideally a thread and post number, so that I can have the issue investigated by the clever techster folks? If you're having issues, others probably are too.

Not using the app regularly, I wouldn't notice it.

I know it can be a bit small on a phone, but if I do log onto the forum on my phone, more often than not, I'll use my browser.
 
With everyone's fabulous food, if we lived closer together, I'd be suggesting a supper club. The reality is everyone would be otherwise engaged for mine! Some of you are such inventive cooks. I take my hat off to you.
 

Hi @DCUKMod the problem I noticed was when replying to post 28804. I didn’t see the 2 final paragraphs until I pressed the reply button - then the whole post appeared in my quote. I looked back at it a couple of times and it was still there - half the post visible to me, and directly underneath was my reply quoting the whole thing.
I’ve looked back now to find the post number and the whole thing is now visible ion the initial post as well as my reply so maybe it’s already sorted
 

Thanks for doing that.

I've just looked on the App, and see it all, but I do note Viv had edited the post, so no idea if that makes a difference. If you, or @maglil55 see any other instances, would you please note the thread and post details and I'll have it checked out.
 
Post no 28684 - 28691 are totally different posts to the ones I can see on my tablet. I only noticed because I was looking back to see my last post for catch up and I knew 28684 was missing as that was my day from hell with the car.
Originally the post count was correct on the mobile but now it is missing 7 but they are there somewhere.
 

I see them all on my phone and browser. How odd.

On your App, @maglil55 and @DJC3 - could you hard close it, by hitting your home button twice, the swiping upwards to close the app, and try again?

(Sorry to be deflecting things a bit folks!)
 
Omg that Japanese omelette looks amazing and like something in a food magazine. You are clearly a very accomplished cook. You wouldnt want to see my omelettes though they do taste good.
 

Sure thing

I always do that every time I finish on here anyway - to save battery life ( no idea if it works like that) but maybe that was the cause of my issue which is why it looks ok now - I’ve closed the app since seeing it first time. I’ll do it immediately if I notice it again though.
 
When I hit the Home button (on the side menu) it closes after I hit it once so I have to open the side menu again. I can't hit it twice without the side menu closing.

One thing I didn't ask you, or @maglil55 is if you're Apple or Android? I'm Apple, so may not necessarily to seeing the same thing
 

I remember nylon sheets very well - horrible things! My ex MIL used to get hers from Brentford Nylons (amazing the stuff i remember from way back when). Her nylon sheets used to build up static electricity which made my hair stand on end and if i wore anything made of a similar fabric to bed the nightwear and the sheets would cling to me and ti each other and i got a mini crackly static firework display as i turned over or got out of bed. I have Egyptian cotton now.

I'm Android. Just wondering if a hard reset will work. I've also signed on via Chrome and the posts are there so it's just the phone app they are missing.
 
So yesterday I had a niggling sore throat - which was no surprise after the morning spent in the doctor's waiting room last Friday (I invariably catch some bug or other at the doctor's). Over night it has escalated and I've woken to a headache, sore throat, 2 x ear ache, sneezing and wheezing. My FBG was 9.8 even though i didn't eat at all after 5pm yesterday. (I'm really annoyed about this cos I've just managed to get it back down to normal after my holiday.)

Today...

Breakfast: bacon and eggs

Lunch: the only strawberries that were red (all three of them) from the garden - lovely taste but hurt my throat to swallow them

Dinner: deconstructed scotch eggs (leftover cold high meat content chipolatas and cold boiled eggs) with a bit of mixed salad (if I feel like it) and some coleslaw

Drinks: black decaff coffee, water
 
@DCUKMod
I noticed your discussion with others and @maglil55 about 'missing' posts on the app, if that is what you are talking about.
I go on to the app first because I get numbered alerts from that. I have an iPhone.
But like someone above mentioned, there seem to be missing posts, maybe 6 or 7 from the app, so I go over to web page, still on my iPhone, and I find them there.
I assumed this was my poor connection because the app appears to struggle a little initially when I open it up, that is it doesn't load immediately.
The web page doesn't have that problem on the iPhone. Even though I have gone over to it straight away.

I have found this happening several times.

I close the app down each time, that is I swipe it off the, I don't know exactly what you call it, the set of open apps that are there when you double press the button. I am always swiping those off every day.

Hope this helps.

Delete then reinstall the app????
 
OK. I'll raise this missing posts issue with the techies. I did use the app this monig when cross referencing from @DJC3 and @maglil55 .

A reinstall could be helpful. It's often the first thing the techies suggest, but I'll let them know anyway.

I do know there is a new version of the Android App in the release queue (not at DCUK, but wherever they go for release). I know this for another reason, but just saying. You'll likely have an update alert in the very near future.
