Hug for the bg raising drug really not what you want when working so hard on diet controlThanks for the good wishes @maglil55 - now I know what is on offer there it can be dealt with. Just a pity I didn't opt for first test in Cambridge as it has several shops including a good sized M and S on site. This is the Monday instalment of what seems to be man v LC food. Decaf tea (not even 1 pint) and decaf CWC for B. Cut down salad with avocado and mackerel in EVO for lunch - late, around 3.00. Evening meal was 3 egg mushroom omelette with reduced salt and sugar tommy k and pea shoot + edible flowers + mayo. Plenty of Fage 5% and a 10 cal/lc jelly as not much "bulk" in that lot. Chronometer reckons it was LC and low cal but meter this morning says 5.7. I can't really spare the bandwith atm to sort out if my body is dealing well with the current problem, pumping out energy not coming from food or diet is badly constructed. Best part of yesterday was managing 10k+ steps.
Edit: I have been sent out with 1 drug that can increase insulin resistance - this is all like a whodunnit with too many plausible suspects and a blundering detective.
I’m sure you’ll enjoy your cakes I know I do. Unfortunately the dentist took an extra day holiday today! I was up early to ring and then when they didn’t answer rushed down town to speak to them to find the door locked! As it’s an upperfront tooth looks dreadful so same process neededfirstthing tomorrow would imagine there will be a queue for emergencies as closed from lunchtime last Friday! My hygienist appt a week ago is what I blame for loosening the crown btw !@DJC3 - great idea with the mayo. I always used a blender but drizzled the oil bit by bit through the little hole in the lid. I also add a little mustard to it. On the home front (@DJC3 & Viv19) never tell a woman there's no way you'll fit all that in there! Not only have I had a massive clear out, the remaining contents of the cupboard plus the contents of the underneath of the bed are now in storage boxes or vacuum bags, sorted and labelled AND I still have space. Today I gave the mattress a good Hoover and shampoo. Charity shop will get another visit tomorrow.
@shelley262 - hope you get your dental appointment and hope it didnt mar your day. Glad the lemon drizzle was good as I have an order in for the brownies, lemon drizzle and millionaire shortbread. I'm intrigued by the millionaire shortbread. Anyway today was OMAD again. Bed 6.6 FBG 6.2
B. TAG with ADOC then Aqua.
L. Nothing
D. A lamb kebab with mint sauce and a salad of lettuce , tomatoes, 1/2 avocado and a boiled egg. Remains of the breyers (less than a scoop with raspberries. Even more water!
Tomorrow will see the final clean and Hoover of our bedroom then I'll move to the other bedrooms to continue the clear out while I'm still in the mood. I have also now lost the 5lbs I gained on holiday.
@ianpspurs - hope your final visit to the hospital goes well (ignoring the food). Even in my pre diabetic days if I was in hospital I had food brought in. My sister had a restaurant and I phoned my orders in for delivery at visiting time!
Evening all. Rather a lot consumed today.
Early start for a final canal walk in Brum - up the old mainline to Dudley Port. Back at hotel in time for a bunless bacon cheeseburger with mayonnaise and grilled onions before catching the train home.
Some Hotel Chocolat 70% hazelnut chocolate and a couple of small pieces of cheese on the way home, then a HC shake at Euston which reduced BG! Hastily prepared chicken wings coated in butter and garlic salt and air fried for dinner, with a desert of almond butter and cream.
Could get used to being on holiday. Back on the straight and narrow tomorrow.
@DCUKMod the trivet thingy is 7cm high.
Isn't the AF just great for creating a bit (or a lot!) of deliciousness, quickly?
Sure is. Only had bacon and eggs in the fridge and didn’t fancy those, so a quick trip to Sainsbury’s for wings and voila!
Sometime, you need to try that Moo Grob recipe (or your own preferred variation of it) sometime. I have some pre-boiled (for me in the IP) pork slices, frozen individually, in the freezer. They take no time at all to defrost naturally, but I bet in a squeeze, they could be defrosted in the microwave, the re-seasoned and crisped in the AF in no time at all - including crackling.
The boiling bit is a faff, but if you try it, then if you like it, do a batch, it's not so bad.
Oh yeah.
Definitely on the list. Need to buy some pork belly strips.
Did you pick up on bake off that next week they're doing total chocolate covering on biscuit week? I even have Hubby in to it now. He was sure Jamie was a goner tonight. They seem a nice bunch this year.@maglil55 re the Bounty bars - the way you suggest is pretty much what the recipe I used said but it was quite messy and fiddly so now I just put the coconut mixture in silicone cake moulds, freeze for a bit and put melted choc on top. I don’t mind that the chocolate doesn’t go all the wY round - they still taste great.
Had one this evening while watching Bake Off.
I’m very impressed with your organising and sorting abilities btw.
I like feasibility studies as well...I've ordered 2 boxes of the millionaire shortbread. That should be enough to study it
