Eating habits

Yes, that will make it more appetising.

I have the cauliflower ready to make the rice and can then have it with my daily curry.

I can get away with shopping just once a fortnight with almost no waste although some stuff gets eaten out of date but I don't worry about such things and after many years of flouting the guidance I have never been ill through it. I am however, totally disorganized, not just with food/meals but life in general, which is why eating 3x a day doesn't generally work for me. Also if I only eat twice a day, I only have to calculate bolus injections twice a day and if I get into regular exercise I can sometimes get away with just 1 bolus insulin injection a day, so it makes managing my diabetes less of a full time responsibility and therefore makes it less of a mental burden.
I would like to add that I still enjoy my food and drink despite mostly just eating twice a day and I certainly don't feel like a "martyr".... Not when I have cream in my coffee every morning and often end the day with a chunk of nice cheese and a glass of red wine or port or some olives and a G&T and I can indulge my guilty pleasure of pork scratchings whenever I fancy them. 🙂

Excellent and good for you.

I am a typical northerner, 'a little bit of dirt never hurt anyone'.

Am trying hard to get low low carbs, so far so good or so I thought, I read somewhere that when you count carbs you deduct the fibre count true/false please

Only if you are in the USA. Here is the UK the Fibre isn't included in the total carbs info because it is indigestible, so the total carb content is what it says in the nutritional info box here.

Thank you 🙂

The spelling usually gives away the difference Fibre is the UK spelling, so the carbs shown are the net carbs. Fiber is the US spelling, so they should be deducted.
