had a spoonful, likey the texture - not too smooth....
Better keep on topic otherwise the thread will be shut down!!
B: chia seeds and some Aldi linseed & goji berry sprinkle with Lactofree Cream, water and a goodly sprinkle of desiccated coconut. 1 cube of fresh Mango...mmmm
Coffee n cream
L: not hungry. But had some nuts with another coffee n cream. (This low caffeine thing doesn't seem to be happening)
Pre dinner snack: 1 tsp of whole earth peanut butter with seeds. (Purely for taste testing...)
D: 1/2 Sea bream battered with Gram flour and spices, then fried. A handful of baked Celeriac chips. Huge salad with cucumber spaghetti, Chinese cabbage, cherry toms and a mixture of anti-pasti from the deli counter.
First time having Celeriac (reducies in tesco's, 12p each!) BG +0.7 at 2hr and -0.2 at 3hrs!! Gonna try mash with the ugly veg, tomorrow me thinks.
wow!! that's fantastic!! well done. honestly, my trigs fluctuate between 0.7 and 1.7 which isn't too bad.
my total cholesterol is around 8.5-10 with LDL between 6.5-8. It has been elevated for many, many months. although i'd like to think it's just part of the body healing itself, my cardiologist is worried given my off the charts CRP levels (50 at one point), that this represents inordinately high risk levels when combined. that's why he advocates the exercise
Bloody hell! That stuff WORKS!!Also got some phyllium husk today for some extra fibre.
Celeriac is lovely stuff, use it as a base for a rosti!

Put it this way - there's another 2lb lost on the scales that wasn't there yesterday. I need a lie down!
the literature is still conflicting & causes stress if looked at in detail..to be honest, i am at the point where i turn a blind eye,hope for the best, start exercising & redo my tests a couple of months after that & see how it goes.My last two totals have been +8.... and the breakdowns are not good, though not complete either, one is missing, can't remember which one... and probably why I have not gone completely bonkers on fat - red meat... time might tell.

I bought a kilo of powdered husks. Half a pint of water, 1 teaspoon of the husks stirred into it and then straight down my neck without delay. Then another half pint of water.@GeoffersTaylor
and how do you take yours, coz when I take the capsule form, two, I'm really not sure how effective they are with me.....

Thanks. Have managed to stay the same weight for the last 2 weeks and am 4lbs below my target, which is not such a bad thing. Had to come off Glimepiride after 9/10 days on LCHF as I was going too low. Determined not to have go back! Fairly stable now though still struggling to keep levels down when I dog walk or garden in the mornings. Experimenting with different snacks during those times. Still love my almond cakes, and thank goodness for fat bombs!Well done!! Brilliant... such good news... you must be proud of yourself... Maybe you will stabilise without doing anything? Are you on meds? Maybe you need to make a few almond cakes too!!

It's not as sticky as potato that's for sure but as an alternative I like it, stop before it burns though...... I grate and cook with OO and some butter and keep it moving, bit of salt later on.That sounds very interesting.
I haven't tried it in that format yet. Does it hold together, as the starch in potato is what holds the standard version together when fried, as I understand it?
