Quick update on my hba1c result this morning. Last week when my bloods were taken, the label printer in the surgery was not working and the staff were in a flap about it. Today, they have two sets of results with my name on it and don't know which one is mine! It is either 34 or 59. (Last result was 38) I know which one I would prefer! They are inclined to think I am the 34 and the patient with the missing results is the 59, but they have to redo the test to be sure. Results next week. Will probably come back in triple figues due to the amount of husky bread I put away at the weekend
Today I will be eating exactly the same as yesterday btw
Did you like the Chia pud thingy? I think it's a bit like rice pudding when you make it with coconut milk...b: Chia pudding thingy
l: 2chicken legs
haven't planned anything but I'm going to be late getting in so probably something like ham and cheese
Rhubarb's really good - sweeten it with Truvia or something and it's lush...Ok, I've ordered chia seeds and they will be here tomorrow from Bulk Powders. I don't like feeling left out lol
@lizdeluz Stewed rhubarrb might be nice with it and is not too carby.
That is SO frustrating - I bet you were looking forward to your results, knowing how good you've been....Quick update on my hba1c result this morning.

I had 7.4 at two hours, but 4.9 at three... am assuming it's slow burning but full of fibre!https://ggiswheatfree.wordpress.com...tions-on-the-mim-muffin-in-a-minutemicrowave/
I am going to try it for breakfast and test, but I think it should be fine... I have cacao pennies to melt on the top - Christmas present from my lovely, thoughtful sister...Can't wait now...
I made lentil soup today - a bit different to the Near Eastern one I habitually make - less lentils and more bulk... I tested at 1 hour and I read 6.5/117 - as long as it doesn't go up much more than that at 2 hours I shall make it a staple... it is seriously good - though I shouldn't say so myself... I was quoting my fussy husband..I will post the recipe if it's ok - it's a real winter-warmer... lots of spices...
@Weird Science When it says "Science confirms..." Does that mean that you made it up?!

It's funny stuff, isn't it?Hi @susikav. It was OK, I think I need to tweak the recipe a bit - I didn't have any berries the first time but added some blueberries with the second attempt which made it more palatable. I'm going to persevere with it though, I think it's just a case of getting used to something different. I might try putting some seeds in almond milk overnight and see how that works out
B: the first green smoothie in a loooooong while.But my BG rose scary high (9.2) at 45 mins, then sank steadily for an hour and a half to hit 7.4 at 2 hrs.
Bit of a shocker. And much higher than used to happen!
Various possibilities.
- I didn't have avocado or nuts in it, which I usually do.
- it was the first carbs I have had for brekkie in about 6 months, so maybe a bit of enzyme lag?
- did I balls up on the 60:40 veg:fruit proportions?
I was a bit distracted, widdling dogs, making coffee in the cafetiere, talking to Mr B and sorting out my packed lunch. In retrospect, it's amazing the puppy didn't get put in the blender!
Any thoughts?L: cheese slices and a 9bar. Too much cheese, if that is possible.
S: peanut butter cookie
D: pulled pork, no veg(No time to phaff, had to be in and eat and out of the house in 20 mins, and Mr B forgot to start the food off before he picked me up from work. Yup, I blame him.
S: coyo
