What have you eaten today? (Low carb forum)

[DJC3]

Breakfast: L/c toast topped with avocado and scrambled egg.
Lunch: lettuce boats filled with cream cheese, red pepper, avocado and a splash of hot sauce.
Dinner: a couple of homemade curries - chicken madras and saag paneer ( but I used cauliflower leaves instead of spinach). A dollop of yoghurt on the side. No rice or bread needed with this, it was quite substantial.

Hi Filly, one of those days again, forgot the password!
Mini chocolate muffins and hot chocolate today I need comfort food and blood glucose not too bad. Had a busy few days.

I've been told off by paramedics, usually with litle experience. My Husband has a neurodegenerative disease, needs emergency hospital trips at times. This time , just had new vinyl in kitchen, so medicines and food in the hallway. Told off by a young lady who I assume has servants to look after her. Also told off no fire escape, she never saw the patio door opposite the bed. Our life journeys are all different, I hope I've learnt a lot in 72 years but I am still learning. I've just had different experience to her. Best wishes for your diabetic journey, keep testing and follow the forum. Carolm

Breakfast yesterday was 2 boiled eggs.
Lunch was sardines on L/c toast.
Out for dinner. A rare treat for me to be able to choose from pretty much anything on the menu - it was nearly all low carb! I chose scallops to start with crispy pancetta and a trio of grilled fish in garlic butter to follow ( bream, sea bass and hake). Bowls of seasonal veg served with it. 1 small glass white wine.
