Guest guest Posted April 12, 2012 Report Share Posted April 12, 2012 You're a trip, Mark! FYI, cantalope and watermelon are great fruits to enjoy. Not particularly high in sugar actually, especially watermelon. Dave ~~ Now available: THE ATTACHÉ! -- From Desert Breeze Publishing ~~ Visit: http://www.authordavidbond.com Upcoming releases: A TIME TO BUILD -- June, 2012 SWEET MUSIC -- October, 2012 A TIME TO HEAL -- February, 2013 OUT OF THE DESERT -- July, 2013 A TIME TO DANCE -- November, 2013 We all have a main staple in our diet, what is your's? I would say cottage cheese is my very biggest main staple in my daily diet. it is low carb and can go with all most anything. use to be I ate raw oats every morning. just oats raw with milk and splinda. now I notice when I eat oats my sugar will be higher then I like. so I cut down on what I eat and can't have any more now then half a cup. I think right behind cottage cheese would be eggs. I always keep some boiled eggs in the fridge every day. get the hunger pain? well eat a boiled egg. hits the spot every time. you can do so much with an egg. ever tried grilling you some onions in the skillet with a bit of olive oil before you scramble your eggs? it is hard to beat for extra flavor. I really don't miss bread. never have been a real bread eater with my meals like my Momma was. do dig hot yeast rolls right out of the oven with some real butter and strawberry jam! so I don't bake them no more. make you some chicken or turkey salad with mayo, eggs, pickle relish, onions, celery and spices. let sit a few hours or over night. now you can eat this like dip on your favorite veggie. I really like it on a slice of cucumber or bell pepper. hard to beat cottage cheese though. it is good on veggies as well. cut up some fruit in your cottage cheese and add some splinda. throw in some walnuts or almonds as well. let this sit a few hours and it is about as good as it gets. I haven't tried the kale chips yet or making pancakes with pork rimes and eggs. can't get pass either one yet. not going to knock them though until I have tried both. I do miss chips and dip. hot on fire dip that is! I'm married to a Mexican lady who hates anything hot or spicy. she doesn't even like black pepper. good thing I'm the cook because I love it hot and more kinds of hot is better! going to mess around with different ways to make me a new chip for some dip that won't shoot my sugar in to next week. I've heard of romaine or leaf letis, but not sure yet if that will work for me. I'm here to tell you for sure those so called low carb crackers and chips you can now buy my dog wouldn't eat! very nasty to say the least. ever had any sweet potatoes chips? these to me are very nasty to the taste. I do like turnips and maybe they could be sliced real thin and baked in the oven until they were crushy like a chip? I have always ate the same veggies all my life because I suppose I got tunnel vision like most people. I run across veggies I have no clue how to cook them or what they taste like or what do you eat them with. now that I'm eating more veggies, I'm going to step out and try some new veggies on for size. If I don't cook them right, then what the hay! like a artichoke? what in the world is this? what about leaks? what is that? ever tried those potatoes that look like a finger? now here is a way you can eat a few potatoes and not eat to much. baby or finger will do the trick. do any of you like Brussels sprouts? my honey loves them. I can't hardly stand to chew them up. I know corn on the knob is not good for us who are watching the sugar, but some times you got to step out and eat the for bidden fruit. so get you a fresh corn on the knob and slice it up like you would a cucumber in to quarter inches slices. then boil them and roll them around in some real butter. they will keep a while in a tight container in the fridge and you can have a couple at dinner every day or so until they are gone. what about water melon and cantaloupe? I love them both, but high in sugar are they both. who can eat one slice of a real sweet cantaloupe? not this pig! water melon is simply sugar water just about, but man is it ever so good around the fourth of July! next time the buddies cook out on the grill, you wrap your dog up in a huge romaine leaf instead of that bad bun. you could eat 2 this way. just have one that is a foot long instead! if you buy the romaine fresh, you will have a big enough wrap for your dog and put the good stuff around it that you like. ever had veggies on a stick on the grill? I always let my veggies and meat sit over night in some olive oil and spices before I put them on the sticks the next day on the grill. you can do it in the oven if you wish and they are good this way too. get you some button mushrooms, cherry tomatoes, bell peppers, onions, your favorite fruit and some kind of meat. here is also where you can use those corn on the knob sliced up like a cucumber on the sticks as well. once it is done, then pull it off the stick and spread it out on a romaine leaf, fold it up like a taco or a burrito. you know the one staple I miss a lot is pinto beans. however beans are way high in carbs. I use to never eat less then 5 cups of beans at a time and always had two bowls with half of a skillet of corn bread! now I may cook a cup of pinto beans and add it to a whole pot of soup. times sure do change. when you get a real bad sweet tooth going on and you are afraid you might slip and eat a thing you shouldn't, eat a bit of plain mustard and it will help that tooth go back to sleep. get you some of those large mushrooms that is the size of a small plate. make you some scrambled eggs with grilled onions and cream cheese with some baby shrimp, then put it in the bowl of the huge mushroom and let it heat up in the oven for just a few minutes, but not to long or it won't be as good. rub that mushroom down with some melted butter before you put the egg stuff in it. if toast doesn't mess with your sugar, then set the mushroom on a piece of toast and do it all together. just do it all kinds of different in what ever combination you dig. but these huge mushrooms make grate bowls you can eat and it isn't deep fried and will kill your sugar reading in 2 hours. go to the health food store and buy the stuff to make up your own cereal using things that are healthy. just have some one go with you and pick out how ever many items you want to be in your cereal. nuts, seeds, granola, but be careful with dried fruit because it is way high in carbs. add cut up fresh is better when you wish to eat some. get you a blinder or a food processer and start playing around with foods that are low in carbs. this is what I have done in the past and have created some dishes that I do enjoy with out guilt. now don't forget to pick you up maybe six containers of cottage cheese! it is the one staple you have to have on hand always to do right by your sugar and if you just don't like it? well pull your head out of the sand and learn to like it!

Guest guest Posted April 13, 2012 Report Share Posted April 13, 2012 I can eat a cup only of each and my sugar will rise higher then I like it to be.

Guest guest Posted April 13, 2012 Report Share Posted April 13, 2012 I have to save this note, Mark. I just got some cottge cheese this week. I have always liked it. But I put a little crushed pineapple on it because that is the way I liked it s a little girl. My mother always ate it that way. The pineapple is in unsweetened juice. I am definitely interested in what you create.

Guest guest Posted April 13, 2012 Report Share Posted April 13, 2012 Hi all. Here are just some of my bav foods. cottage cheese: i ate a whole huge container the other night, my wife said it was 5 g of carbs per serving and there are 6 so it was 30 cars all together. I also love chips, burgers, potato and macaroni salad. I love califlower and crocali raw but i have no teeth anymore so can not chew that but it is also good cooked, either with or without cheese sauce over it. I am a meat and potato man too. That is pretty much it but lso one i forgot is fish. Not fresh fish, that fish u get a the grocery store or resuaurants like falletes or fish sticks. Also i drink diet soda, diet pepsi is my fav. later all have a lovely day. -- Please visit my website at www.samobile.net/users/scott2089 My skype is scott20122012 Have a great day! 73's kb0clz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 14, 2012 Report Share Posted April 14, 2012 I know how you can salve your no teeth problem. have your wife chew it up for you first and then it will be soft for you to eat after that. I mean this is what wives' are fore. ever heard the story about the guy who sees to older folks sitting at a fast food restaurant enjoying a burger? yes they only had one burger between them and the man was eating and the older lady was just watching him eat. the guy who seen this wasn't impressed and he went over to ask them if they simply only had enough money for one burger? he said he would love to buy the lady a burger if this was the case. the older man said as soon as he ate his half of the burger, he would take the only set of teeth they had out of his mouth and give them to his wife, so she could eat the other half of the burger. so you can see how having your wife chew up the hard to chew food for you first to make it easy for you is a grate plan. this free advice is no cost to you! just one more grate service that the gentlemen pig gives away for free!
