How did you get on Flossam?
kittypickle, my GI day is as follows:
I eat porridge for breakfast with some nuts, chopped apricots, sultanas, grated apple or whatever ele I can throw in to make it palatable. I quite like it now and it does fill you up till lunch. If I am bored with porrige I have poached egg on granary toast or bacon sandwich (granary again)
Midomrning some fruit if I cna be bothered to eat it.
Lunch beans (has to be Heinz) on granary toast or homemade soup or some pasta with tomato sauce.
Afternoon slich of toast or oatcakes and hummous or some fruit.
Supper - pasta with tomato and vegetable sauce, salad or vegetable chilli and rice, or roast chicken, small helping of potato, lots of vegetables.
Chocolate and wine is, at the moment, restricted to weekends. Dont know how long I will abstain from a drink with dinner every night though.
I do find eating like this easy as I dont have to measure tiny portions out. The main things to avoid are potatoes (esp mashed ), white bread and pastry products, and anything over-processed. Chocolate should be at least 70% cocoa so mars bars are out and wine should be red my favourite drink.
There are loads of web reasources - I'll try to find them for you if you want
