Yes, home monitors are convenient and easy to use. Get one that you don’t have to code. Those are a pain in the butt because you have to code the monitor every time you open a new vial of test strips. So I found a no-code machine at the pharmacy of my local grocery.
Well the scale is finally starting to go back down. I gained 4 pounds over the holidays and as of this morning, 3 of those 4 pounds have fallen back off. Today for lunch I had breakfast. I made scrambled eggs benedict and took a pic because it looked so pretty on the plate.
Looks lovely Linda, I can just eat that right now.
Today its homemade shepherd’s pie and vegs.
Oh thank you–no i do not have a blood sugar monitor—I will check them out—
Mariana,
Buy from Amazon.co.uk
My Life Pura X Meter - £12.50 - No coding and easy to use.
Comes with Monitor, test strips, wallet etc.
Morning all.
Todays its marinated Chicken Breasts in Indian spices with Veg. Stir-Fry and Brocolli.
I made the Hollandaise sauce from a packet mix and didn’t add the butter it called for to cut fat and calories. It still tasted amazing.
I’m having coconut crusted tilapia and broccoli slaw. Broccoli slaw is really good, it’s basically like coleslaw, except it’s made with shredded (or julienned) raw broccoli. I love it.

I really enjoyed my dinner today, I had:
Smoked Haddock, Boiled pots. Broccoli Cheese & Carrots.
I wonder how Mariana is?
Hopefully she’s doing well.
I went light today for lunch… fat-free cottage cheese, a fresh golden beet (they’re huge!) and grape tomatoes.
Today we are having a roast with Breast of Chicken.
For lunch I’m having a turkey burger and another one of the beets. I’m in love with those golden beets. They’re so sweet and yummy.
Having Chicken Curry and Rice today.
Chicken and Vegetables today.
Today we are having:
Sea Bass in a Thai Sauce with Boiled potatoes, Fine beans and Cauliflower cheese.
I have no idea what I’m eating today. I’m getting a tooth pulled (one of my back teeth) and I don’t know that I’m going to feel like eating. I should probably eat before I go to the dentist this morning, but then I’d have to brush my teeth again, lol. Besides, I go to the dentist early, not long after I take my son to school, so if I need something on my stomach, but I don’t feel like chewing food, I’ll just have a glass of chocolate milk or something when I get home from the dentist.
Mariana must be in a bad way, not to come on here.
Wish you well Mariana.
Let’s hope she’s alright.
thanks for thinking of me–going through an incredibly stressful time right now…
Hope you start feeling better!
