Wow.
You will be sparking with green-smoothie vitality!
It is like drinking health, isn't it?
Have you had such large quantities of them before?
If not, are you prepared for the consequences? The bathroom consequences?
Hi Rose 28 .
Your smoothies sound delicious ..
B.2xrashers of bacon
Courgette, leftover buttered cabbage , 1 small boiled potatoe and a fried egg .All fried in butter .
L.Avocado and 1 cup bulletproof coffee.
Supper stirfried beef with peppers mushrooms savoy cabbage ..and ginger...

Brunneria, I just noticed from your signature that you too enjoy green smoothies.
How often do you drink them and how does it effect the diabetes?

That's amazing... I had a M&S breadcrumbed lemon sole fillet, just because we had them in the freezer, and my reading was awful.... how odd...Today
B. A lovely kipper and a poached egg
L. Smoked mackeral salad
D. A small breaded fish fillet fresh by Youngs total carbs 17g. Don't ask me why these don't spike me I have no idea..had this with sugar snap peas and baby corn tossed in butter
Still well under my carb allowance for the day. Bg average today of 6.2.
After the last few days its all settling down
At the moment, I'm not drinking them
Because I've just been doing a stint of very low carbing, with quite a high (well, ok, a VERY high) fat intake.
But I do miss them!
Just reading your post made my mouth flood with saliva.
So I might just start with them again...
I find it easier, spring and summer, in good weather, so might need ease back in gradually...
For about a year, I was drinking them every day. Breakfast and lunch. Huge quantities. Felt fantastic. Ironically, I think that was the year I actually drifted into type 2 after about 20 yrs of prediabetes. I don't think the green smoothies contributed (more likely it was the simultaneous Galaxy chocolate addiction). And in fact, I'm pretty sure that it was the green smoothies that eased my descent into type 2. It was only when I stopped them, in the autumn, that I realised my blood glucose situation had transitioned into type 2.
When I make them with 60% veg and 40% non tropical fruit, they are fab for my blood glucose (rise of about 1-1.5 mmol/l after an hour.
Do you have a meter? Are you testing?
I like that... 'drifting into diabetes'... that's what I think I did too, over the last 9 months...At the moment, I'm not drinking them

I know very weird. I can't have fish fingers though...or anything like...although a battered piece of chip shop fish is fine too...its the only area I'm lucky. I miss my porridge and carrots and parsnips are like liquid sugar for meThat's amazing... I had a M&S breadcrumbed lemon sole fillet, just because we had them in the freezer, and my reading was awful.... how odd...
Coffee with cream and salmon pate
11g carbs Tyrrels cheesy popcorn
Brie, mango coyo, black pepper 9 bar
Curried mince and green bean stir fry with the first 2 onion bhajis in 3 months. Bliss.
Maybe berries and cream, later.
I do, but tonights were bought.Do u make your own onion bajhias? I have a complicated recipe that neither of us really like but could do with a simple recipe, though I find small shop ones don't seem to do much damage to my levels.
