Yesterday we went to the supermarket for ONE thing.
And came out with a trolley full of stuff, and not the ONE thing we went in for!
How typical is that?
Today I'm going out to get ... CRACKERS.
I use crackers to fill in the gaps during the day.
I have three little crackers every other hour during the day.
It keeps hunger at bay. Sometimes I have a piece of fruit too.
Is there anything you eat to stop yourself either fainting from hunger, or pigging out?
There's lollies in my pantry. And I ain't eating them.
I'm expecting Lacy this morning. She's just popping in for a visit, shame there's no left overs.
Our new vacuum cleaner is fully charged now, so I shall have a whip around the house with it. Stew might have a go too. I can't say I've ever looked forward to doing the vacuuming before!
ABOVE: Ophelia Cafe, Cambridge. This afternoon I'm heading over to Cambridge for an FBG Social Get Together. An Afternoon Tea in fact. There's around 28-30 of us going, so it should be a pleasant get together.
So, that's me for now.
Catch ya later.
2 pm: I'm so sorry!
Today I got up, went to the computer and spent 5 hours straight doing paperwork.
While I did that, Stew did this:
SAD.... that's the end of swimming until November.
Now... I am off to Cambridge for the FBG Afternoon Tea. I'm looking forward to it, but hoping there's something 'sugar free' to eat. If not, I will take some crackers as back up.
And Diet Coke. Can't forget the DC can I ? 😂😅😋
5 pm: And I'm home from our Get Together.
It was neat catching up with so many of the girls, some I hardly ever see as they do walks at times I don't.
The food was very nice.
I have a story about the dinner ware... for tomorrow! 😋😄
ANON: No crackers are sugar free as such, as we all know carbs convert to sugar. BUT, they are not MADE OF SUGAR like chocolate and lollies!
So, you have to choose your evil. I choose small crackers, in moderation.
Right, we are quietly watching TV... sad story about Robin Williams. 😥😞
Off to bed in an hour or two.
Catch ya tomorrow.
No leftovers..No Leftovers...

Well done Chris, that's great that you are cutting sugar and feeling better. Afternoon tea looks like it will be fun too! Have fun vacuuming... maybe a video? My daughter is interested in a new one so perhaps I could recommend this to her.
ReplyDeleteDry Roasted Almonds is what I gnaw on in-between meals. Or in the car. Just put 10 in your pocket and have at it whenever you feel the urge.
ReplyDeleteI am so proud of you for having no sugar. I took it out of my diet a year or so ago. I do use Coconut Palm Sugar - it has a 4 glycemic level...I use it in my coffee and tea. I also use it if I bake, but I rarely do that these days. I do not have a large sweet tooth to begin with, so there is that, too. And that helps.
Keep up all of the good work!! Ky Girl
Lacy ohhhh boo hoo lol 😆 I would try a nut mix they're pretty good you can get ones with dried cranberries and other goodies or make your own mix. Have fun this arvo with the group!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on no sugar!! Congrats on vacuuming without pain! Boohoo on forgetting the One thing you went to the store for. I forgot milk one Saturday, but got other stuff not even on my list. Crackers are very good. Dry roasted peanuts also.
ReplyDeleteGood about you cutting out the sugar...I am also trying to do that as my test was pre diabetes..all white foods such as white bread, rice crackers etc all turn immediately to glucose when consumed (unfortunately) so having nuts as snacks and Robyns ideas are the best snacks for diabetics.

I must ask, what is FBG, as in FBG afternoon tea. It sounds like fun. Like you I have a few crackers, or tea with milk in it, or my current favorite is roasted salted pumpkin seeds. I avoid sugar too, I have it in limited amounts. Enjoy your tea with friends.

What crackers do you gather are sugar free? I've looked for ages but haven't found any. I love crackers and tomato. Kj

I have such a sweet tooth so I am very impressed you have cut it out! Your afternoon sounds lovely ☺️
