Hi Munjeeta,
What are the rice cakes like? I saw them the other day in asda - but thought the chocolate might be the waxy type?🙂Bev

 

[Munjeeta]

They're yummy 🙂 But then again, maybe I just like waxy chocolate!

 

[katie]

mmm bombay mix! unfortunately I can't be trusted to only have a handful of that 😛

Breakfast: Weetabix. 30g carbs
Lunch: pasta salad, chocolate covered rice cake. 42g carbs
Snack: about 3 more rice cakes over the day 36g carbs covered by extra meal insulin!
Dinner: I had another BBQ - A quorn burger with 1 piece of bread, a tiny bit of chicken, bbq banana & flake. I'm going to guess approx. 40g carbs

Again not a great day, I get bored when i'm working and snack too much 🙄

I know, the chocolate rice cakes thing was quite amusing. I was just munching on one earlier when I saw your post about them haha.

And for obvious reasons I have learnt to love many an indian snack, like bombay mix and kulfi

 

[Steff]

brekkie - organic porridge
snack at 11 was apple

[Munjeeta]

Breakfast - same old same old! (42g CHO)
Lunch - Mxican bean soup, handful cherries, 2 satsumas (40g-ish CHO)
Snack - a couple of those Mikado thingies

I'd rather drink diet coke than coffee, but i need my caffeine fix somehow and dont have any coke. I drank full fat coke everyday before I was diagnose, even worse!😱

pom bear crisps (yes I know theyre for kids!)

But they taste so good!

dinner- about to go and investigate that possibility...

I have to confess that it was only in my dreams katie - was trying to think of all the foods that I would enjoy, were it not for the now ever-present fear that they might do me harm. I think I have some psychological issues to work through still!😱

My actual food today was very boring!🙄
