Just steer clear of pasta and croutons and such like to keep the carbs down low! B" That's pretty much what she said to me. I think I'm getting a bit over enthusiastic | |||

"The Diabetes nurse at my GP Surgery recommended the Mosley Diet in January. I've never been so bored in my life with that! I don't eat any veg at all. I will make up salads, but I'm allergic to spices, garlic, peppers and so on, so any of those are out. Then, in late Feb, I'd a medical issue & my GP recommended ditching any diet, resorting to what I was comfortable with food wise, to aid my recovery. But I did cut out soft drinks, white bread, sweets (menu varieties) and drank far more water. Plus, I bought a George Foreman Grill so I could cut down on fat in some foods. By start of July, I'd lost 5.5kg; GP's nurse was happy, so am I and I continue with my regime!" That's good, I'm glad it worked for you | |||

"Hello everyone I'm asking for ideas for low carb snacks please. Thank you" Any low carb food but if you need to snack you need to look at what your low carb diet consists of. Usually snacking isn’t necessary. I’m 11 years down the line with this so PM if you’d like to. | |||
