L - tuna mayo and green salad - am using Sainsbos French Mayo - very low carb (can't remember if it was 0.7 or 0.2 which is a lot less than Hellmans which I normally use) and it is quite nice - wow it is only 0.2g per 100 which is fabtastic !!!
D - got duck legs out of freezer - roasted probably - green veg which I need to pick up this afternoon, although I know I have some courgettes in fridge. oops not thawed so went to wetherspoons for dinner - bbq chicken with bacon and cheese but without the bbq sauce and with about half the chips and all the salad - one wine and one large whiskey and a black coffee for pudding

Maybe tomorrow I'll finally have my first glass of wine of the week - only if I stop eating crap though, have to get it through my thick skull that I can't have it all! ;)
 
Don't have the bars in the house, ww. Or give them to someone else with orders to only let you have 2 a week. I know if I had access to a stash I'd eat far too much too.

Hey hey Saturday Club,

B: Quite large bowl of flax porridge, followed by some cheese
L: 'Big Tasty' burger (minus bread) and some chicken nuggets
D: Thai beef salad, some olives and some deep fried camembert.
W: Probably not enough
A: I think about 5 glasses of dry white wine
E: Not sure, but basically alot of walking. Maybe 5 miles?

Popped up to Edinburgh for the day yesterday. Was hungry so went in to McDs. Looked a total clip eating a burger with knife and fork! Didn't eat burger bun but chicken nuggets were battered so probably not that good. Deep fried camembert also had a breaded crust (didn't realise until it came). Salad also had alot of onion. Hoping all the walking counteracts it!
 
Afternoon. Got my shopping delivered this morning and of all the things i eat most off, i forgot the eggs.
So no breakfast.

B no
L 2 lettuce leaves with tuna mayo, cucumber, cheese pieces and 3 rashers of bacon rolled and made into 2 fajita type things, it was yum.
L pork shoulder steaks with greens( trying breakaway from chicken)
W not enough yet.
E no
A no
 
About to make an order from LCM, can any of you awesome people tell me what sweetener/sugar alcohols Thorntons use in their diabetic fudge please?

Thanks!

I think they use Isomalt/Maltitol syrup?
 
Yeah I think if there's one polyol to steer clear of it's Maltitol.

Mind, I'm no expert and I'm mostly basing it on the table at the bottom of this link:

What Are Sugar Alcohols - Blood Sugar and Sugar Alcohols

Maltitol seems to have a high GI.

That said, I had some Thorntons toffee last weekend and I don't think it stalled me. Maybe a bar or 2 won't hurt.
 
Haha yeah I can see where you're coming from. Even the cheaper diabetic sweets from H&B etc are expensive, considering you only get about 8 per pack or something!

Still good to have something delish in the house for one of our weaker moments! :D
 
Afternoon James & Michael
Or alternatively don't have any temptations in the house! :D
 
Hi Kat1e!

Yeah I know what you mean. I've actually come around to alot of you guys' thinking - best not to indulge at all coz it only leads to further craving. Hence only 1 can of coke zero last week (needed a breakfast pick-me-up!)

But best to have some 'ammo' in the house just in case. You know, for self defence... :)
 
Haha - my self defense is i actually have to cook something like a cocoa mim. Usually just have the pepperami or cheese instead as im too lazy :)
