i always used to make up enough for 2 days. reheated it in the microwave on day 2.
it had always set like concrete, but just stirring in a little water, milk or cream would loosen it up again.

Bm after was 7.1!

Hi I have just had a Heinz lentil soup all 400 grams of it with Hi-lo brown toast ----OUCH. BS went from 6.3 to 11.4 in one hour. Its the soup.
I make a simple lentil soup that doesn't' spike me. 2 medium size carrots 1 and a half handfuls of lentils and half a veg stock cube. Chop the carrots into a pan add lentils and stock, a shake of black pepper and cover with boiling water 20 minutes simmer, blitz and hmmmm

What do u put in your fish cakes ?
Hope the pain better now. I've fibromyalgia and am in flare at minute so know what it's like - you get fed up with yourself.x
 
Just salmon or cod. Mashed cooked veg. Shape with beaten egg and seasoning and freeze. Bake on a tray as and when. Yes. Pain v hard to deal with sometimes. Hope we borh feel a bit easier soon eh.
 
Ooh that sounds nice. I think some mashed cauli and a few mashed peas would be nice mashed up with the fish.

Yes pain sucks. I've had a few years not so bad so it came as a bit of a shock to be back in the pain zone. X
 
Breakfast : 2 steamed eggs and 3 strips of bacon
Lunch: leftovers from last night
Snack : couple hard boiled eggs
Supper: roast chicken ( family left me all the skin and fatty parts... Yum!). Side was brussel sprouts pan fried with some finely chopped bacon, and finished off with a wad of butter. Browned a bit on the outside, but still firm on the inside.

Had my blood work fasting tests this morning. See the Dr. Next week for results. Just went and got myself a couple squares of 90% chocolate, think I might treat myself to a glass of wine after the kids are in bed.

Hi Dibbles, sorry to hear you're not feeling so good and hope you are feeling a bit better today. I experimented with the oats/cream/yoghurt and raspberries today for breakfast. Very nice, but very rich! I think I may have put too much cream in so will try it with more yoghurt and a little cream next time.
Lunch: M&S tomato and basil soup with a teeny weeny bread roll - the first one in three weeks, and I was a bit scared! About an hour after lunch my tum started playing up, so Im assuming it was due to the bread, or could have been too much cream, as I had coffee with cream at lunch.
Tea: nice piece of beef pan fried with mixed mediteranean veg, yum
