I feel your pain. And your willpower and moderation is very impressive. Had I been unexpectedly hijacked by a chocolate cake in that way, I would not only have scoffed the whole slice, and the icing, and tried out for a second helping, but would probably have had to stop and buy another one on the way home and eaten the entire thing!!
So well done you!

B: Raspberries and Coyo natural yoghurt (I've seen the yoghurt mentioned on here, and it really is yummy! It's going to have to be a new staple in the fridge...)
L: 2 burgers, lettuce, mayo & goats cheese in an Oopsie roll; raspberries & Lacto lactose-free single cream
D: Chicken Korma and cauleriac cake
I've been gardening all afternoon and I'm now totally ruined - knees, hips, back, shoulders, elbows, wrists and even fingers have all seized up and are refusing to co-operate any longer, so the curry is going to be a takeaway, as they are the only outlet locally that will deliver! First takeaway since diagnosis nearly 2 months ago. Reading before dinner 4.9 - wish me luck...

Good luck, you deserve a treat. You need a nice bubble bath as well by the sounds of things. . X

Oh, yes - that sounds good! Any chance of getting Hugh Jackman round to scrub my back, do you think? I have a new loofah......

Evenin' All

B: coffeencream
L; mozarella, beef tomato, olives and the herby oil they came in. Sooooo much nicer now you get to add salt to those toms, eh? lol
D: bratwurst and a tablespoon of root mash. wanted greenery, but Mr B had scoffed the last and not replaced it. will have a nice sized portion of raspberries and cream later, and break into the Godiva choccies my GORGEOUS BELOVED brought me yesterday. All 70% + with oozy bitter choc ganache and the odd hint of fruit. I am drooling at the thought. Work out at 4.4g carbs ea, so I will get 2 in a portion after 9 different meals.

Assuming that my iron self control doesn't get swept away in the choc orgy.

Obviously, he has redeemed himself for the greenery theft.

Nah. indulge. Just make it home-made, low carb icecream.

You need a GOOD blender.
Then you tip in
1/3 double cream and
2/3 frozen berries, and
sweetener to taste
Blitz
enjoy immediately

It is divine.
You can, of course, add choc as appropriate

Thank you @Brunneria .

I had a nasty dietician appointment this week and it upset my clear thinking. I'm back on track and hoping for even half lb weight loss to satisfy hospital. Very upsetting experience.

Hi ickihun, Sounds good what did the ice cream do to your BG readings? I adore ice cream but never had any since being diagnosed in Jan this year
