[QUOTE="Gracie204, post: 2174938, member: 515464"] Hi Bulkbiker What do I eat? Have you got six hours? I usually start the day with a cup of tea with a splash of low carb coconut milk, followed by a small cup of coffee with double cream. These are to get my motor going! For breakfast I usually have two free range organic eggs sometimes with spinach or a flaxseed crispbread or small slice of HiLo bread spread with butter. Occasionally I may have bacon, eggs, mushrooms, tomatoes. If I do not feel really hungry sometimes I hang on until lunch time before eating. Lunch usually consists of protein in the form of meat or fish accompanied by a salad or vegetables. And the same goes for the evening meal. I do tend to snack on bits and pieces, especially about nine o'clock at night. Currently, I'm into slices of cheese sandwiched around coarse pate, usually only one slice. Drinks are mainly coffee with cream or tea. Yesterday I was tired and couldn't bother cooking so ate slices of cooked belly pork, picked at a pile of chicken wings, and then ate a portion of cod which needed eating up. But generally I do try to include vegetables and salad into my diet for health purposes. I attempt to eat vegetables that grow above the ground, mainly cabbage, leeks, courgettes, but sometimes chop up a small carrot or have sliced green beans to add variety. Even a small slice of protein bread sends up my blood glucose. I'm not good all the time. When I go out with friends and there's nothing on the menu which is diabetic friendly and I'm starvingly hungry (happens occasionally}, I can easily be tempted, but then when I reach home it's usually back to eating as I should be doing. Oh yes, thought of other things I have. Sometimes I have raspberries or strawberries with double cream! And occasionally make homemade soups. I did ask you if you'd got six hours to spare! Thank you very much for your help. [/QUOTE]
