Re: Tuesday Jan 5 Roll Call

Hi everyone! I'm home sick today, ick! Coughing and sneezing makes me have to try to get enough calories and veggies. Anyone have advice on how to get enough veggies when all I want to eat is chicken broth and other liquids? If I had cauliflower, I would make faux potatoes or something else liquidy, but all I have are cucumbers, snow peas, green onions, and celery.

If it were me... I'd do the chicken broth, and just cook some broccoli or cauliflower and some celery in there - nice and smooth if you overcook it, and good stuff for when you're sick!

I was in your shoes a few days ago. What I would do is use scallions, and spinach in a chicken broth. I lucked out and made some baked chicken a day before so I dropped that in the broth with the scallions and spinach and it was good and I slurped it right down!

Hello! Present and accounted for!! Nice post Oz!

Doing great. Had a slip last night when I had some wine but am moving on. Made some low carb sushi california rolls last night that were AWESOME! My husband was even opting for them over his rice ones!

Going to buy a new swimsuit today so I can get back in my aqua fitness classes. Hate not going but my swimsuits are so worn out I can't wear them!

I would love the recipe for those as I LOVE sushi!!! And Yes! I can do awesome today...oh wait! I DID do awesome today!!! LOL I tend to visit a bit late in the evening. It is almost 8 pm here in Alaska though! rofl I suppose everyone else is sleeping? hehe I bought some better foods tonight at the store...some steaks were on sale and so was the chicken breast! I am cooking extra each time so I have some to store away for quick meals. I also bought some veggies but they didn't have Jicama this time which is my favorite potato/apple replacer, so I bought some turnips. Have a good sleep everyone.

Hello everyone It is Wed here in Oz & 7.15PM. Bit late checking in but have been out & about most of the day & have just sat down. Well I have been going ok Had a couple of problems with my sugar levels dropping very low (Type 2 Diabetic) I have cut my meds back as I did last time but when I have a bad low like I did yesterday I need carbs to get me back up. Does anyone have any suggestions as to what I can do when that happens. At the moment I just have some jelly beans or orange juice which is not what I want to do but it is really important to get them up.
Apart from that I am going great. Hopefully dropping my meds down might work out ok. I know last time I was doing Atkins I was able to get off my insulin injection so hope this time I can get off my meds as well. Might post over in Diabetic forum & see what everyone else does.
Hugs

I know this is late, but I would first check with the diabetic board to see if they have any ideas. Personally, I would look for the lowest carb sweet thing like strawberries or something??? I am not sure and wouldn't want to lead you astray. Typically diabetes gets more under control on this wol so am not sure. I am just borderline diabetic (last checked) and the doctor actually recommended atkins to me to help me keep from getting it full blown. Best of luck to you. I hope you see this.~
