Dinner (out) - steak with peppercorn sauce on top with large salad which included cheese & coleslaw. 1 dgf notella cookie when home with a cuppa.

I am just back in from my walk - sun was late in coming out today not that long ago - but has stayed mostly dry today

I know you post this whenever you go to mil's, but I have to post to admire your restraint. I was recently faced with a box of jaffa cakes, had one and then the temptation eat the whole lot was so strong! I think it was wrestled out of my hands after 4, thank heavens.
How do you stop at 1?

 

It's a very nice single malt, your Dad had a good taste for them @Rachox.

I will enjoy, thank you.

Thank you.

 

Cheese on toast for breakfast.
Savoury liver and bacon, mushrooms, onions and sliced spudlites for lunch.
Home made fish cakes for supper at six.

Five or six bit of naked ginger, small glass of Laphroaig watching a movie "We Still Steal The Old Way" on Prime, good casting , it has most of the crooked cops from The Bill in it all growed up.

 

Morning all. Skipping bf because it's Monday... pensioner's lunch club day. Have no idea what's in store for me but will try to even out the damage at teatime by a no-carb meal. And be really good tomorrow. And the next. Have a great week everyone

 

I love reading your food diary’s I wish I dare to do what you do I want to but I’m scared to I’ve been in remission since last June with 4 kids in the house they are lots of treats around me I don’t know how I do it. Do these little treats effect u long tear awe will it just be like a little spike to the blood then it goes back tomorrow? I don’t understand stand it all xx I hope you had a lovely time with friends n family over at the weekend

 

Breakfast was mashed avocado on a slice of wholemeal toast. Took insulin half an hour exactly before eating. BG is within range just now.

I still have some of the chicken thighs from yesterday so will do something with those and some vegetables.

I'm just taking a rest from cleaning out my kitchen fridge - there was something smelling kind of fishy in there, but I can't find anything in there to cause the smell. Neil can't smell it at all, but it is definitely there. So everything is out and all the shelves and compartments are washed and air drying at present. I think I'll have to put a dish of bicarb soda in to make sure the smell goes away. Also chucking out some bottled fruits that have been kept too long - all to the good.

 

@Jayne1983 you’re doing really well especially with 4 kids in the house. Someone on the forum suggested a while ago that keeping your food in a separate cupboard to everyone else’s carby stuff might help? It is difficult when everyone around you is eating differently.
@Riva_Roxaban I’m just starting to catch up but it looks like your new pills have stopped the bleeding so I hope you’re feeling a bit better now. Laphroaig is the perfect medicine. I love ginger too.
I still have no kitchen and no sink downstairs so preparing meals is a pain. Washing up has to be done in upstairs shower!
L/C roll with cheese and ham
D- beef skirt cooked in slow cooker with microwaved veg. Followed by Brie and red wine.
Walnuts and a few 100% choc buttons at some point during the day.

 

Yes, we have separate tins for 'treats'. I don't go in theirs and they don't go in mine.
I could have addict tendencies so I don't even do the shopping for their stuff else I'd eat it in the way home from the supermarket. That said they now choose to have fewer treats as they have seen the positive changes in me.

 

B: 2 chicken drumsticks
Coffee with cream
Exercise class
L: salad with ham and camembert, olives, pickled veg. 1 sq hm lc cake.
Midafternoon munchies. Ate more camembert and found some leftover icing so that vanished too. felt quite ill after.
D: frittata with salmon, salad. 1 large red wine

 

01 The tablets are working ok, I have cut the dosage down now as instructed.

02 It's certainly helping me sleep better with my pain killers,

03 A lightly toasted crust of bread and ginger marmalade to drool over.

 

Mmmm answer someone else question but not mine

 

All as I wanted to know is it ok to have the odd treat
