I’ve done lemon mousse like this too but added lemon zest and lemon juice folded in after whipping cream with a small @mount of erythritol. Done for dinners with family and friends and goes down really well.

Not tried mixing it straight with the cream though.
Thank you @DJC3 italians seem very skinny in general - so good not to feel different for a change! Re Italian sweets husband had them all- tiramisu, cassata Sicilian, coffee ice cream, all the various krapchen, biscuits served with coffee etc I could only gaze in envy and work out how I may be able to make a low carb version or not! Proves eating lots of carbs put on weight as if we didn’t know!@shelley262 your holiday sounds brilliant, it must have been wonderful to swan around in your new skinny wardrobe.
Well done for avoiding the Italian sweet treats, no mean feat, they are delicious.
Losing 1lb while on holiday is a real achievement, you should feel really smug, especially in the face of your husband’s half stone on!
Hi we do all low carb eating on this thread and try to encourage each other. However we do also vary re how low carb we go. I try to keep below 30 and often 20g of carb per day to stay in keto. I also have often intermittent fasted as have others. I do it because it works for me on both my bgs and my weight. However we all have different tolerances of carb quantities and some may find low carb to be significantly more than I eat. We’d welcome anyone wanting to work on lowering their carbs and looking for ideas and support.Do you have to be a low carber to join this thread? x
Ah didn't notice the tags, I'll take a look and see if there's anywhere I can join in, thanks, wouldn't post there as seems like just for Type 2'sHi @kaylz91 this thread is on the low carb diet forum, so I think everyone on here is low- carbing.
There’s another thread Type2s: what have you eaten today in the T2 forum, and maybe others still elsewhere on the site I havent come accross, if this isn’t for you.
I love your avatar btw
Sorry low carbing isn't for me and due to weight loss etc its not something my team would want me to do either as we are trying to encourage weight gain xHi we do all low carb eating on this thread and try to encourage each other.

Def not in that case - just spotted your weight in your signature and clearly not an issue for you! Must be hard to control bgs and put weight on. Maybe you could start another thread for others like you looking to discuss what you eat and gain some weight at same time?Sorry low carbing isn't for me and due to weight loss etc its not something my team would want me to do either as we are trying to encourage weight gain x

Not really difficult as I have the benefit of having the insulin but I have lets say 'issues' regarding food since being diagnosed xDef not in that case - just spotted your weight in your signature and clearly not an issue for you!
