Got my first retinopathy scan results - only 2 days after the test,and pleased to say all was well.No more trotting off to that off the map so called community hospital (10 minutes walk from a bus stop isnt exactly helping the community is it?) for a year
🙂
I think I have been pretty good this week,tried to eat lots of veg,less carbs,but still havent got a scale so its always a nervous time waiting for those SW weigh-ins on a Tuesday afternoon! lol.
My daughter got me one of those plates marked with 50% veg,25% carbs,25% protein,and I do find it helpful,at the least as a warning if I am going off track. If one meal is wonky,I attempt to correct it at the next,or at least decide to cut out a snack,etc.Every little helps!.
I try to sort out having my healthy extras at breakfast,usually porridge and milk,then I dont have to fiddle the rest of the day adding the options ,overdoing it by accident then having a lot of syns to add.
On the whole I find SW agreeable enough to follow,but I do miss my cheese. Even 1.5 ounces of low fat cheese is too little for me,I always end up with eating extra,with lots of syns
Anyone else got a particular food which is difficult to limit? Oddly enough,I am not missing cakes and biscuits or pastry,but bread is a real problem.I find it easier to omit it altogether than try to get by with only one slice lol.I started getting Mr Dusty wholemeal with seeds,which I dislike,because if my fave Warburton Farmhouse was in the cupboard I would be sorely tempted....toast dripping with melted cheese..mmm....sigh......
