I’ve had a better day today, well a better day in terms of this, work was still a pain in the ****.

I ate just a little bit more porridge for breakfast this morning and it seemed to make all the difference. I’ve felt a lot more with it today, not as hungry, no weird blood sugar. It’s been good.

I made the most of freedom of vegetables tonight, with a stir fry. A chicken breast, a little pasta (to replace the giant portion of noodles I usually have) and a large portion of stir fry veggies with plenty of crunch. It filled the spot.

I’ve added one of my favourite all time recipes to the site. It’s a veggie pasta bake. It’s one I’ve adapted from an old weight watchers plan. I eat this even when I’m pigging out and don’t care about the weight it’s that good.  I’d recommend it for anyone who wants a meat free meal perhaps without noticing. I’ve even done this for everyone when we had a girls night in and two of them were vegetarian.

Just to say after some of the comments yesterday, I’m not a full blown diabetic yet but I do have some of the symptoms. I know I’ll probably end up diabetic as it’s in my family but losing the weight might delay it for a bit. The reason I’m doing the GI Diet is partly to try to control the symptoms. It’s no fun to feel like you are going to pass out especially if you happen to be driving!
