Message: <blockquote data-quote="Annb" data-source="post: 2194627" data-attributes="member: 25851">Yesterday evening I found a tub of chicken liver pate in the freezer, so I substituted that for whatever it was I was going to have.  Took a dessertspoon of it onto my plate, which I forced myself to eat but dumped the rest.  I hadn't realised that I must have put some coconut flour in it and I didn't enjoy the result - far too dry.  Later I was hungry, of course, and had some roasted cashew nuts - about 20 gm.  Carb content of those shouldn't have been more than 5 gm so I thought I'd get away with it.  BG before bed - 9.5.  Coconut? or cashew nuts?  Or something else?  Don't know.FBG today 6.4 and a fairly early brunch at 11.00 - 3 slices streaky bacon and 2 fried eggs with several cups of tea.   Hungry again halfway through the afternoon and had some more cashew nuts - about 10-15 gms.  Wonder what effect that will have on my BG.Dinner was some ready cooked, frozen pork medallions.  I think I had marinaded them in yoghurt but the label was too blurred to read.  Reheated them in some butter and then finished them with thick cream to make a sauce.  Had about a serving spoon full and did manage to eat it, but I didn't really enjoy it and left the rest.  Just having a cup of black coffee to try to make my stomach feel a bit more comfortable.  Too rich.I do like meat, and I thought I would enjoy a much more meat oriented diet, but I'm not so sure now.  I'll keep going for a bit - and try to avoid the nuts - and we'll see what happens.Neil got the Scenic back but the weather is foul so we won't go shopping until Thursday at the earliest.  He did get me some eggs, cheese and butter because he was shopping for his own soya milk anyway.  That will have to do.  I daresay the shelves will be pretty empty anyway with the ferries and planes off.</blockquote>
