Do you not know what it means? It'll be an American recipe, net carbs are the carbs after the fibre content has been deducted, UK labels already have it deducted in the total carb content x

I am a novice at this carb lark🙄
So the carbs per slice that effect us is 2gr per slice if I am correct in my assumption whcih basically means nee carbs at aall. haha = Vince can eat a lot of it.
 
Looks great @Vince_UK . I'll be trying that one, thanks.

I've been looking at that site this morning before you mentioned it, in the desserts and cakes section there is quite a few nice looking recipes such as chocolate and raspberry slice, cinnamon slice etc 🙂 x

Duh!! I didn’t know what that meant. Never heard it before.
A silly story, when I was diagnosed, I went to shop with my blurry eyesight, and it was coming up for burns night. Was doing a carb search on veggie haggis (ok I am a heathen) and a helpful shop assistant read the sugar content on the label. Off I went, had haggis tattles and needs and blood glucose up in the stars. Not the right combinations at all. The sugar level was low but carb level was right up there. I was so disappointed and felt like a numpty


Bread looked lovely vince. Well done

Sound like you are doing well Vince.
Brilliant web site, going to get my baking pinnie on
 
@Kaylz
If you type in Low Carb in the search window it brings up a lot of low card recipes K.
You may aready know of this site so apologise if you do
🙄
 
@Vince_UK I know about most of the sites but thanks anyway. although I'm not low carbing and have to be careful of fat content etc so its a little more difficult for me :( x

I think I eat to much most of the time but I am still loosing weight so I can handle that lol. I am not however eating junk food and cr@p as I have done in the past.
Tonight I will grill and eat a Bavette steak 345gr no fat.
I don't know how I would handle things K if I had to do what you have to do every day, it would do " me ed in"
Admire you and other T1's like you to be honest.
