What did you eat yesterday?

[Northerner]

Thought I would revive this idea as it has proved popular in the past for people to see what sort of things others are eating, and perhaps pick up some ideas of things they might also like to try 🙂

My diet is pretty boring really, but here goes with what I ate yesterday:

Breakfast:
slice Burgen S&L toast and butter, 5 mugs of tea.

Lunch:
Two soft-boiled eggs with two slices of Burgen S&L toast soldiers, buttered.
Mug of tea and Muller Greek-style lemon yoghurt.

Evening meal:
Smoked ham salad with a few oven chips. Cadbury's caramel (oops!😱)

Snacked on peanuts and cheese during the evening.

Yes, I thought it would be better to list the previous day's food in case some people eat later 🙂

I like the idea of trifle - I had a big one for my last birthday as a thumb-your-nose-at-diabetes-treat 😱

I can't have sugar on anything these days, it's too sweet for me! You should be careful about timing of your insulin doses as that breakfast will give you a hefty spike if it hits you before your insulin has got to work 😱 Especially in the mornings I find I am much more insulin-resistant - I can inject an hour before eating and my levels won't have fallen!

yes I learnt about that spike when I was pregnant and was told to eat Weetabix or Porridge as the rice crispie,s even without the sugar, caused a spike, but they are all I like, if I didn't have them I would probably not eat breakfast. Whilst on steriods I have to have breakfast (to take the tablets with) and I am also so hungry and I am trying to put weight on, oh and diabetics shouldn't skip meals - most important last - typical me!

Thankfully most of the time my sugars are down to under 7 in the morning (steriods have an 18 hour time period bringing them nicely back down) and I avoid testing my sugars straight after so I don't feel guilty, which is so wrong I know. I do go low an hour to two hours after but that doesn't bother me I'll just enjoy a tiny snack then, all helps with the weight gain : )

Thats not nice that it can take an hour after for them to go down, frustrating, that happens to me in the afternoon / early evenings.
