oh also could you tell me the brand of the bread thanksIt was actually really good, 1.5 slices was 91 grams. It's a very dense loaf I have to slice it myself. khorasan wheat has a GI of about 40, the sunflower seeds add some buffering fat, it's sprouted so that makes some of the anti-nutrients in the wheat go away mainly the phylates and the tannins. It's a sourdough so that would affect the GI even more and make it lower. I like dense bread, and it was really a very nice lunch especially with the lovely native pepper berry sauerkraut and hummus. Plus the 91g serving had 6.3g fiber and 10g protein just for the bread. Heck if $12 is the cost I have to pay to eat bread, have a nice lunch and enjoy life again then it's a price worth paying.

The link is to the specific bread I purchase that's available here in Australia. But any "health food store" should have some kind of sprouted bread in the freezer/fridge section. It's colloquially known as ezekiel bread. https://purelifebakery.com.au/product/sunflower-sourdough/oh also could you tell me the brand of the bread thanks
I looked for Khorasan bread in US , I could not find it .
But I get sprouted whole wheat bread from Whole Food Market . It’s very good. It cause a spike for me ( up to 140) but the spike drops very quickly ( as per my GCM). It’s also very tasty and prices are ok (5$ or so ) .
As for Khorasan bread , there was not any but Amazon has cereals made from them and they have flour too (if someone can bake )
I guess in Australia and UK , there is more chance of finding Khorasan bread.
Anyone with a GCM , has tested how much spike different types of bread cause (and how many slices ?) . Bread is very important to my happiness so I’m constantly looking for bread options that I can eat safely . I need two slice . With sprouted bread, I can have only one .
Welcome to the thread @lcarter you’ll find plenty of help and great low carb food ideas here
Bed 5.8 FBG 5.7. @Chook - I found the thread. Can't believe it was 3 years ago. I had to laugh at your comment of joining "round the campfire" (in a reference to Blazing Saddles) due to all our fridges being Green & White! The eggs though! You and the thought of Mr C's face at 6 dozen eggs! I was had enough with 4 dozen. It really us quite a funny thread. @SlimLizzy - I'm enjoying your building stories. I was brought up on the concept with my family of buy in need of work, renovate, sell and move on. Once I was married I only did it 3 times then stayed put. Probably I was fed up with the upheaval. @DJC3 - Hope you had a good celebration today.
B. 2 fried eggs, 1/2 tomato and 2 rashers back bacon. TAG with ADOC.
L. Took the boys swimming so back in routine again.
D. Today's DD dinner oddly goes way back to the 2 week challenge and I'd forgotten how tasty is is. Baked cod loin with a red pepper butter and roasted sprouts/mushrooms. I also gave into a piece of DGF strawberries & cream blondie.

Weather was better today but the wind is whipping up again. I need to settle down and see what I want to swap on the week 2 menu.
Edit: the DD thread

Woops - not cream cheese... Should have been cottage cheese....Thanks for the link - seems i was having the same Jack giving me BG problems back then - nothing changes. Mr C has never let me forget my error in ordering double eggs and cabbage. Funny thread.
Today.... Saturday 11th January
B: DD Mexican scrambled eggs (I had 3 eggs, one spring onion, two cherry tomatoes, jalapeno and cheese cooked in a bit of butter) - quite nice, not too spicy - and will be having again this week
L: 20g cheese
D: Oumph, salad, mushrooms
Dessert: Mr Cs new concoction - a few raspberries with beaten Longley full fat cream cheese and a dusting of grated 85% Lindt choc - tastes a lot like raspberry cheesecake
Drinks: Usual black decaff coffee with breakfast then lots of water.
My Dry January partner had a mega fail last night - I'm still alcohol free
As you're in the US you could have a look at Bob's Red Mill Low Carb bread mix or New Hope low carb baking mixes. They cost a fortune here because of the import taxes but you'll get them at a reasonable price. I know iHerb stock Bob's red mill.I looked for Khorasan bread in US , I could not find it .

@Annb sorry about the dishwasher, I find these things often go in succession. Re rhe ham could you squirrel away slices of bacon in the freezer to cookup when you feel like it?
Today as follows for me
Breakfast: usual slice LivLife toast, butter, tea x2.
Lunch: Small plate iceberg lettuce, shaved last of Stilton, cheesey coleslaw.
Supper: just ordered Tandoori King Prawns, cauli Bhajee.
I feel for you @Annb - you know how many disasters I've had recently. Unfortunately, mine were beyond repair! I never realised food supplies were so poor on the islands. Obviously, I know you're depending on the ferries getting supplies in but I thought you would have more variety. Does that mean the only way to get variety is a trip to the mainland (or pay the exorbitant extras for delivery)?Tea until 12.30 and then I had 2 sausages, 2 slices of black pudding (small - about 1 1/2 inch diameter, and 2 fried eggs. Quite full after that.
Then I had to go out but should have put the pork belly joint in the oven to slow cook, Didn't really want to leave the oven on though - didn't want another problem to arise. So I thought I would just put it in when I got back. Sadly, too late now, it took longer than I expected. I'll just have to do it tomorrow, although I do have to go out again tomorrow, but I will just put it on before I go.
I expect I'll just have some ham and cheese in a while. The ham we can get on this island is rubbish though. I have tried to make my own, without much success but all we can get here is bits of ham, compressed into a lump and then sliced very thin and packed into plastic. I'm sure you know the stuff. Don't expect to enjoy it, but I'll need to eat something - I'm too hungry not to.
Today's breakdown was the dishwasher - actually had to stand at the sink and wash dishes - including the ones halfway done in the machine - after I'd mopped up wall the water off the floor!!! Luckily, Neil dragged the machine out and fixed it for me.
