There was a very popular disco record by ABBA called "Dancing Queen". I think they should release a new recording in honour of @Kaylz but this time call it "Tesco Queen". It would work just sang it to myself

Because I have been away for a couple of days stuffing my face with rich and wonderful food just wanted “ ordinary” yesterday.
B. ( in hotel) Eggs Royale, two poached eggs on small muffin, hollandaise sauce and smoked salmon, granary toast with spoonful strawberry jam.
L. ( at home) tuna sandwich in Burgen, packet of plain crisps.
D. Bacon, egg and oven chips and slice of Hovis granary ( ran out of Burgen), I even weighed my chips, I usually just guesstimate, it was blooming lovely! Later I had three tiny thin homemade shortbread biscuits snaffled from hotel room. Tested before bed, 5.3! How did that happen? Had a bit of chocolate! Back to it today, going for my “ big” shop soon.

AH!!!!!! Greggs
https://www.sunderlandecho.com/news...tine-s-day-meals-at-select-branches-1-8986889

If I could still eat things in Greggs, it would be half seriously considered!

@Kaylz @grainger has had squirty cream A G A I N!!!
Not that I am telling tales or anything😉

I'd eat it every day if I could

D. Bacon, egg and oven chips and slice of Hovis granary ( ran out of Burgen), I even weighed my chips, I usually just guesstimate, it was blooming lovely! Later I had three tiny thin homemade shortbread biscuits snaffled from hotel room. Tested before bed, 5.3! How did that happen? Had a bit of chocolate!

How are you finding the Hovis Granary for your BG levels in general? My local Tesco has stopped stocking the Hovis Lower Carb, so I've switched to this in desperation and found that my levels don't really rise with it, so I'm pleased. I'm always intrigued to know how it all works with other people.

 

[Beck S]

Couple of days to catch up on!

Tuesday
B: Fried egg on wholemeal toast and bacon
L: Walked out at lunchtime to co-op as had run out of food in the house, so a Pepperami, mini chicken skewers, some chicken bites and a bag of Wotsits.
D: Guide night, so had two pieces of granary toast and marmite, and a small bowl of Cinnamon Roll Halo Top (end of the pot )

Wednesday
B: 'Work breakfast' (fried egg, toast and bacon)
L: Sliced turkey and brussel sprouts from the work canteen. Utterly devoid of carbs, AND taste!
D: Rump steak and chips in the pub to make up for the disaster of lunch.

Have been to Tesco now though, so I have decent food in the house for better lunches again!!

 

[HOBIE]

Spinach & Scrambled Egg 4 dinner. 🙂 Am off my food at mo but nice

I don’t really know as I am on MDI so just adjusted my NovoRapid for it, but when I looked it’s only 17 grams as opposed to Burgen being nearly 12, so probably in the grand scheme of things it probably doesn’t make a lot of difference.I prefer Burgen to the granary as I think it’s a bit heavy. The granary belongs to Mr Eggy, he hates Burgen. We’re a two loaf family!
