People that can't listen to other people's opinions.
People that can't say sorry.
Tried to make blueberry muffins...but had a senior moment.
Put muffins into oven, cooking okish, then realised the coconut oil was still in the microwave and left out from the mixture.
Too late, they had started to cook, although hubby offered to pour the oil on the top of them.
Found good use for the coconut oil as hair conditioner instead!!

Not been that good past 2 days but my BG has handled it ok.
Yesterday - omelette, sandwich, kebab and chips, ice cream.

Today - cheese omelette, nut ball
Salad with salami, 2 chicken burgers in a white roll ( I know)
Prawn and broccoli stir fry with soy and oyster sauce
BG not gone above 6.8 so reasonably happy with that but don't want to make a habit of it else it will rise.

Breakfast: yoghurt, mix berries and ground flax seed, freshly brewed coffee

Lunch: veggy soup sprinkled with mozzarella cheese, another slice of my black bean chocolate cake with fresh cream

Dinner: STUFFED MY FACE and I feel sick now! Took full advantage of Ramadan here and attended an Iftar buffet, had to try a bit of almost everything... tabouleh, eggplant and rocket salad, lamb kofta, hummus, moutabel, chicken kebabs, beef kebabs, mousakka... I managed to resist the chicken biriyani (sp?) but couldnt resist the desert, finished off with some naughty most definately not low carb Sugary deserts..Umm Ali, and another don't know what it's called crunchy semolina ( I think) cream cheesy bake with syrup!

Forget to take my bloods before eating but did remember to take 2 hrs after...114...not bad, definately better than I expected! Most probably tempered by swimming, squash and cardio vascular workout done today aswell

Homemade doner kebab wrapped in lettuce. I do love this! My next challenge will be sish kebabs. Yum ;)
