Don't worry about my earlier comment about what soup you eat. I'm sure it is fine. I just had a flashback to a horrible practical joke using Big Soup that my husband did years ago when he was serving in the military.

Supper will be 2 cups of cottage cheese. Basically can only hold 2 cups of food before bad bloating. Not the gas kind but a painful fullness feeling.

Supper will be 2 cups canned soup. I have many different flavors.

It's a couple of weeks since I last posted my menu. We've booked our pre-Christmas lunch at Bickleigh Mill in Devon for December. I'll carb count before hand, so I can have a couple of roasties, but it won't bother me to miss the stuffing and bread sauce. I'm spending Christmas Day with my friend and so far I can't get it into her head that I don't want any of the nibbles she plans on getting - mince pies, cake, chocolate, pudding. First time I've had this problem with her, but I know she just wants to be a good hostess. I think, like many diabetics, I've just lost my taste for sweet things, since I cut them out of my diet, and I don't miss them.

1408 cals, 70.9gm carbs of which 35.5gm sugars

B: Boiled eggs and soldiers (17.8gm carbs)

L: Grilled premium sausage, mushrooms and tomatoes (9.0gm carbs)

D: Chicken Kyiv, cauliflower cheese, carrots, sprouts (27.4gm carbs).

S: Peppermint tea

Plus: Semi skimmed milk, cholesterol lowering drink and Fybogel (17.0gm carbs)

Sometimes if something seems a bit bland I add some chorizo (fried up so crispy) and smoked paprika.
I do squash and red pepper soup which usually works our OK but needs a squirt of tomato puree.

Today I tackled flavouring up the pumpkin soup with some of the suggestions you all made. A squirt of tomato puree and ketchup, turned bland into tasty. Hint of spice, sharp and sweet - just the thing for a cold wet day.
