Lol! Do Safeways even exist anymore???

having no gall bladder must make a huge difference to your life... How do you manage the fat? Lactose milk is wonderful stuff... It's so much better for your sinuses...

To be honest, I have never felt any problems after my gall bladder was removed, nothing at all. I have low carbed in the past eating my normal fat and didn't have any issues with it, and I still don't, but as I said, I don't over do it in general, I keep it normal and I do eat mayo, olive oil and bacon. Once I get rid of carbs I don't find it that hard to feel satisfied, but as soon as I start eating them, I can't control them. Protein, vegs that's all good... carbs are my enemies though... no matter how much I love them...

Sounds as though you very much have it all under control...I believe that carbs are the enemy of everyone, no matter their constitution... When you consider that most of us here control our BG simply with a low-carb diet, it must prove something, no? Mind you, I'm speaking as a life-long fat lover... I was never drawn to carbs - except milk chocolate...

Or Fine Fare? Spinner's? Gateway? They all belong to the same company now probably...

Oh... lucky you . I'm not a sweets lover at all, but I like starches, and they are the worst of all offenders together with sugar. Fat is really not an issue for me despite my cholesterol saying otherwise , I very rarely ate anything fried beyond chips.

@Brunneria thank you for the link to that cake - looks amazing! Am definitely going to try it once I'm home.

My food today:

B: 2 boiled eggs, black coffee.
L: 2 slices roast beef, some soft cheese with black pepper on it, lettuce, 3 cherry tomatoes, bit of cucumber, dollop Mayo.
Snack: handful pistachios.
D: at a restaurant. Chicken breast stuffed with spinach and sundried tomatoes, with Camembert sauce. Vegetables: cauli, brocoli and courgette. Ordered it with no potato.
Half a small glass of white wine (in amazing scenes, I realised halfway through the glass that I wasn't particularly enjoying it and so didn't finish it). 4 (eek) squares Lindt 85%. I told you I had a problem with eating it when i had it in the house!

I really like this thread - so many good ideas.

Or unsweetened soya milk....

 

[Sable_Jan]

Is that potato mash? Can you eat it without spiking?

I read it as "butternut squash" mashed, no comma after the 'squash'

Don't like that.... Fruit loaf's out then? I wouldn't have dared to eat it! I spiked on a couple of prunes once... I wonder if we react differently on different days? It gets tiring... Hope your headache soon subsides.... I wake up with them sometimes... maybe the liver dump?

Made it as my birthday "cake". Had a big mug of soya latte as possibly dehydrated from all the times I woke last nite and getting up late. NOT one of the flavoured ones this time

I'd just got back from short walk with dog so would have expected lesser spike. But I do think as you, e don't always,react the same

I definitely react differently to the same food on different days.
