I can't post my menus for Friday and Saturday. My food addiction got the better of me. Feel so ill now. :( I couldn't even tell you why I did it. No wonder I'm on that course with a view to bariatric. :confused: I will start again tomorrow, a clean slate. Can't even blame it on being hungry. You're not hungry on low carb. Agh. Too scared to take my BG.

It was a blip as I said on the other thread Ditto. Don't allow yourself to be de-railed although eating mega low carb all the time must be challenging. You're not overweight enough for bariatric surgery are you? Well not unless you're only 4ft of course! :D
 
Lol I'm 5 3...nearly 15stones. My top weight is 18stones 3pounds a number of years ago now. I feel just as fat as ever but we were looking at old photos today and falling about...I was so much fatter then. A real blimp! :D I've had two half days of pigging which is better than the last year or two when the bender would have lasted a week or more at least. The D is stopping me really going to town!

I think I saw or read that they are using lower thresholds for Diabetics.
 
At our surgery I think if you're a tad overweight you just have to ask and it's given. My daughter isn't diabetic but is the same weight or more as me and has depression and she went yesterday and they've referred her immediately. It was them wanting me to have it done that gave her the idea.

Tomorrow is a new day 🙂
Good days and bad days, food addiction is very hard to live with, it's not about hunger, more an emotional state. I'm an 'emotional' eater and when stressed/upset find it really hard to control :confused:. You're not alone.
 
Yesterday my grub allowance was:

B: cappuccino
L: Melton Mowbray pork pie and a tomato
D: local made beef burger, quinoa cooked in beefstock with shallots, sugar snap peas.

I discovered the other day that the local beef, from those hairy beasts you see on Scottish postscards, is high in Omega 3, because they only ever eat grass and clover. How good is that? All the omega 3 rich local fish I eat, and now the beef, must be why my brain is in tip top condition.

There may, of course, be a flaw in this thinking...:confused:

. Not tried that milk. Is it vegan ? I don't mind soya milk but only usually have milk in my tea as I don't eat cereal but as my taste buds change might try milk alternative as a drink.

I've only once been that low after food! That's so good but how were you diagnosed if only in the 4s?
Click to expand...
No idea! I still wonder today why I was dx D!

@wirralass, 47 mmol/mol (your HbA1c number) is just below what would normally prompt a diagnosis (which would be 48 mmol/mol). As such, I think you need to be vigilant, but please don't become over-anxious. Keep doing what you are doing, it's working well 🙂

Thank you Northerner
