Yesterday. Always at my Bruv's on a Thursday night, so something carby/sugary is usually involved (despite he is also T2🙄).
B: Toasted cheese sandwich (1 slice Burgen)
L: Tuna mayo salad
D: Pork chop, kidney, carrots, brocolli & a parsnip
Pud: Slice of strawberry & kiwi flan with extra thick double cream.
How I only ended up with a 6.1 I don't know!🙂
 
Yesterday
B- boiled egg, coffee, bramley apple sausage
Dinner at Ask Italian: Melanzane al Forno, Sea Bass Al Forno, Sauvignon Blanc Doc
No ice cream at the theatre. 🙂
 
Today
B - 45g honey granola, 150g greek style yoghurt and 8g cocoa powder mixed in (yum 🙂) cup of coffee, milk
9:30ish - cup of roasted hazelnut coffee, milk
D - 6 slices spicy chorizo and mayonnaise on 2 slices 50/50
2ish - cup of smooth caramel coffee, milk and 2 squares lindt 90%
T - 3 pork and leek sausages, 2 yorkshire puddings, 160g cauliflower, wee drop of gravy and a lotus biscuit
After t - cup of coffee, milk x
 
Yesterday:
B: Two Waitrose chorizo sausages, a mushroom or two and three cherry tomatoes, one hash brown from the farm shop, all topped with a fried egg. Cup of strong real coffee with lots of milk and a v little Truvia
L: one slice of toasted Vogel with some guacamole and 3 or 4 cherry tomatoes, c2.30.
D: chicken stir fry (my own. not from a packet). No noodles or rice! lots of beansprouts, pepper etc
then a few wheatmeal thins (Waitrose own, 4 iirc) with a little butter and some Red Leicester cheese
No dessert.... but
Late: I was caving something sweet and unctuous, and had lots of Dutchy full cream milk in the fridge... - so I indulged in a small bowl of Jordan's muesli before bed, and a hot drink of Robinson's Blackcurrant ("no aded sugar").
Mistake - my glucose reading was 18.2 this morning!

Today:
B: pretty much the same as yesterday (very good!) but only one chorizo sausage
L: Waitrose taramasalata (not the pink dyed stuff) with one slice of Vogel, toasted.
I felt a bit light headed after my dog walk (back at 6pm) and my 6.30pm reading was 5.6 - the lowest since diagnosis! - so I had six small red grapes. That worked!
D: Lamb's liver, sautéd with thyme and garlic, quite a lot of sprouting broccoli, and a good portion of spinach.
An hour later I had a bowl of creamy yoghurt with a good spoonful of my wild plum jam on it (not much sugar in my jams). I did an 11pm reading which was 15+ :(

I was meant to up my insulin again today as most readings are still over 10, but I didn't, given the one 5.6 reading...
 
Yesterday
All day breakfast for lunch. (Fried egg, mushrooms, tomato, bacon, sausage)
Ratatouille and steak mince with onions for tea.
 
Yesterday.
B: Slice of toast
L: Cheese & tomato toastie

Bit of a blowout Friday!

Mid-morning: plum, 3 pieces mature cheddar (was part of my packed lunch but I was hungry!)
L: graze box, plum
Snack before cycle home: Nature Valley protein bar
Snack to line stomach before consuming a dry Martini & sugarfree cloudy lemonade: Brazil's & 2 plain chocolate digestive thins
D: Indian takeaway: half each of 3 side dishes: sag paneer; veg curry; garlic mushrooms, 3 poppadums. Our takeaway are very good, I specify no potatoes or sugar and low salt and they generally oblige.
(They also have an inventive name: Wellindian, which works even better when you know that it's in Welling).
Half a bottle of dry rose wine
3 Lindors: plain, milk and hazelnut
3 chocolate Brazils
 
I had a bit of a blow out, so I can't eat till wednesday.

Was it your post I read you had tried cinnamon toasties or something like that? What did they do to your levels. There is only a certain amount of porridge I can eat and I need quick and simple breakfasts!
