Thanks, WL. Most of my recipes are from other peoples recipes, I just modify them a bit. The basic cheesecake recipe is from a website called I Breathe I'm Hungry & the truffle topping is just a basic truffle recipe that I bunged on top of the cheesecake. I don't know where i would stand with copyright rules if I published them.:confused:

I wouldn't say you're eating too much. You are having a few more carbs than I choose to eat, but if your body handles them ok, then you're fine. Drinking the water is brilliant & will help immensely.🙂
 
B - Spinach & feta omelet
L - mini crab cakes (they were Maryland style so full of lump crab & hence 1g carb each, had 6)
D - Chicken breast stuffed with spinach & cream cheese with Asparagus

Thanks Mark
I'm always hungry and usually try to substitute food with water . been worried as last week my numbers unexpectedly went up dramatically without any real change in lifestyle or food menu .it turned out I got a faulty pk of verio one touch test strips from pharmacy that were giving me crazy readings . Thankfully now I'm back down to between 5.5 and 8.0 at various timed throughout the day .

I've got everything to learn about good and bad carbs. etc. and I am waiting for delivery of a monitor, but I've started to think about my diet and for the first time, today, recorded my food intake. Until I do my homework, I'm groping about in the dark but would be interested to hear any observations, positive or negative. I've given my carb calculation for each meal.

Morning Mark @Mark Parrott
Just wondering how much the cheesecake affects yours numbers ? . My favourite treat was strawberry cheesecake , but I ain't even looked at it sense diagnosis .
If I thought I could get away with it I would possibly have small portion after Sunday dinner for treat.
