Yes, I looked it up. I’m a little perplexed but will continue to read and balance it somewhere. I’d struggle with the milk issue... I’m a huge tea fan ..
Oh yes, sister.

On a serious note, appeals more to me than carni or cream cheese city
I think it is very much horses for courses to be honest @True Blue. Personally, fasting for 1 or 2 days is far easier and more enjoyable than either faffing about analysing meals or eating some of the meals that ketoheads would foist on me.Hi there @Bubbsie and @MisplacedIdentity . We are all playing a long game. I can't see "fasting" (beyond overnight) as a winning tactic. It would most likely make me say "Stuff It!" and head to the local shop for beer and Cornish pasties.
Me too but I have used almond milk for most of last 4 years. Cheese might be more of an issue.Yes, I looked it up. I’m a little perplexed but will continue to read and balance it somewhere. I’d struggle with the milk issue... I’m a huge tea fan ..

Y'all really have been dozing off at the back or else we really are on a different forum.
Not had a REAL Cornish pastie for years! Hmm might have to treat myself soon but not the beer.I think it is very much horses for courses to be honest @True Blue.

I'm back to a tiny snack right before bedtime TB (stopped that to see how things went)...last night had a small disc of chocolate en route to bed as I used to do...roughly about the size of 50p piece...somehow that seems to work better for me...my FBG is in essence not my main priority but it can get me off to a good startHi there @Bubbsie and @MisplacedIdentity .

Me too.... I went over to having lemon in my tea rather than milk , now a couple of years later I have it black.Yes, I looked it up. I’m a little perplexed but will continue to read and balance it somewhere. I’d struggle with the milk issue... I’m a huge tea fan ..
Glad you are enjoying my holidayMorning All. 6.2 at 07.15 however it was 4.6 at 04.30...how do I know that? Woke up and decided to go down to kitchen for glass of water and glanced at the mantlepiece clock in the shadows on the way..06.20 ..oh well might as well test since its morning. So did and was very pleased with myself. Climbed back into bed said to OH nearly time for you to get up isnt it dark? Wot he says its just gone half four!!!
@SaskiaKC another PM on here? @Goacher55 good luck with the tests.
@Bubbsie you got off light but its so annoying that there isnt anything suitable on these occasions. I was recently in both M&S cafe and Sainsbury cafe and there was nothing but sandwiches, cake the only option would have been soup without the roll but it wasnt that time of day.
@Debandez great stories and pics, making me laugh whch is needed.
These travelogues are almost as good as being there..well almost!
Have a great day everyone. Stay well, stay safe, and dry if you’re out.
I found someone who likes to talk as much as me ;-) can you imagine us on a night out together!!! Haha. I love it! As for guardian newspaper, well I've no idea, I've lost track myselfFBG 6.9 high for me these days. Schedule completely shot bc of being on vacation. That's my excuse!
Ugh @gennepher many hugs for your situation. Bureaucracy is the pits. Also poor kitty! If your avatar is your cat, I have to tell you! I had a black cat named Jenny until a couple of years ago. At least half Siamese. Neurotic, huge vocabulary, could cuss you out in 4 languages...
@PenguinMum too-- I'm on app on iphone and subscribe isn't one of my choicesjust going to have to remember where it is. Usually I am automatically taken to "last post read" in a thread I've posted in. Tags? I see no tags...World Penguin Day eh! Love it!
And re your Ploughman's eating only cheese, I remember an occasion in a UK airport in 1994 when I was avoiding white bread (as always actually) and had to buy the whole tuna sub to get the tuna salad, and they were being made to order, so really they could have wrapped a blob of tuna, right?
@ianpspurs oh man yess I like your thinking on the stress thing, and the relation of body composition to what happens how when. I don't have the free brain space atm for your kind of self-experiment (or whatever we'd call it). I am behind you in LC by (?)years? and IF through lunch still helps, some days tremendously. But numbers still All Over the map, and since all I do is keep a general idea of circumstances in my head, I'm more or less flailing in the dark. As to LC being village shop, I agree and disagree. You've seen me declare delicious stuff you wouldn't feed your chooks, and I admit I'm a nuts and seeds lover. My range of taste is Middle American... so a much lower bar than yours! Fruit, however.... I'm sad about fruit....and all-vegetables-all-the-time.
@OrsonKartt I still have the touring bike I bought in 1973! I also love mine. Haven't ridden in some years; too many arthritic hip/hip replacements spread too far apart. All better now, must get new tires and brake pads and ride!
@DJC3 how cool to find long ago friends like that!
@goacher how frustrating! I'd agree on the "perma cold". Have you seen a dr about it....?
@Bubbsie my son's spandex biking shorts just sprang regrettably to mind-- they had a gel crotch liner. May still be available? And, where I come from "nix" is frome the Yiddish frome the German "nichts", meaning...."nothing". Bet it's the same derivation. Or is this a specifically current T May ref?
@Pipp years ago I read something that made reference to some science about just smelling sweet stuff sending your system out of whack. You were breathing sugar for real! I have to have a piece of 90% choc in my mouth to bake sugar sweets safely!
@OrsonKartt here "to chivy" means to harass or pester into doing a thing.
@Debandez wow for Telegraph-- this is on top of the Guardian, was it? (sorry, can't keep track of your newspapers...)
@jjraak oh my gosh I had inner hysterics reading your fractured Two Towers version. Did Smeagol and Gollum try to talk each other out of it first?
Thanks @HarrisonK I use this only on my phone, never use computer, nor my alerts, etc etc, so I have to use my head to remember where I am. I think I've got it!
Memo to self: stop looking in mirror while dressing. It's depressing for the opposite reason it used to be! I never knew the belly could be wrinkled!!!When I was 42 I lost this much weight on low cal low fat, as one did, and swore to myself it was going to be the Last Time because I already knew older skin was not as elastic. Now seeing non-elastic in spades,,,,, yuk!
Chat away, we love that in this threadMorning all. Had lots of carbs yesterday including a lovely lunchtime Chicken Waldorf Salad, homemade with of course apple. Baked beans with the breakfast, Ryvita with guacamole as my supper starter.
Was expecting to be punished and got a flippin' FBG of 9.8 just now. But I had my suspicions that my fingers were wet from hand-washing which put moisture on the test strip contacts.
Dried hands, got new test strip untouched except by tissue paper, repeated test, with a result of 8.5 mmo/lt, my usual.
Hope I'm not droning on too much. To quote the late George Burns, after he spent about a minute lighting a cigar on live TV, "Sorry to keep you all waiting, When you get to my age, this gets to be exciting".
Puts me in mind of Charlton Heston jjaarkt's a guide not the TEN Commandments.
I used to love roast pork Orson...we used to buy it at the the Ginger Pig butchers in Borough Market...that was of course before Borough Market became Uber trendy (we could afford it then)...however an unfortunate incident with a joint we bought that had the nipples still attached put me right off it...are we allowed to mention Nipples here?...if not apologies in advanceIf you eat pork
you cant go wrong here.
