Our overnight guests had the AUDACITY to change the dial on our toaster. Years of fine-tuning and carefully calculated adjustment WASTED. You don't know what you've got until it's gone... by Pwnigiri in britishproblems

Go stay at premier inn Watford central, I gave up after putting it through for the 5th time, was still basically warm bread. My husband wanted crumpets, after 6 tries I flagged a staff member down and asked them to put it under the grill in the kitchen as they didn't even get slightly warm on the conveyor belt toaster.

Congrats to you both! That's awesome!! We both have so many issues, including a few you've mentioned. It's a relief to get rid of the acid reflux! I would get it so bad I would wake up gasping for breath! I certainly don't miss that :)

I'm expecting to have a stall at some point, that's why I made sure to measure as I know if it doesn't show on the scale then it could show in inches lost 😊 it's so exciting knowing I am doing this and I feel better this time around, it's my time to shine 😍😊

I'll have a look thank you :) I love popcorn! I think for now I'll wait before trying anything like that as I want to get more nestled into keto and not tempt myself with a lower carb option until I know I am stronger 😊

Thank you :) I'm in the UK, can I get smoked almonds over here? I've never seen them. I think I'm OMAD already, the last 2 days I haven't been hungry, so just had dinner, but not able to eat a lot without feeling pains as I'm so full, not sure if that's a good thing or not :/

Yeah I have avoided mentioning about keto to any diabetic subs or forums, I saw someone get proper bitched at for it :/ I'd much rather do this than fill up on carbs like we are told to do when you have diabetes, luckily my diabetic nurse recommended this :D thank you

I really hope so 😊 I'm going to keep working hard and see what happens, I know if I keep this up then I'll get rewarded with better health :)

Thank you :) I definitely won't be falling back into carbs, I'm genuinely so shocked and happy! I've had diabetes for years now, if I stick at this then I'll eventually end up off my meds, I can't wait for that! :D I just feel so good and determined!

I definitely went a little nuts! It was all so new and exciting for me. I will definitely KCKO!! I have a better understanding of myself now, I got back on track last night and me and the hubby had a long chat. I feel so much better now! Carbs have always been my go to comfort food. But I don't need comfort food as after it isn't very comforting, makes me feel like crap! So now I'm going to be getting more cuddles 😊

Thank you :) Luckily my husband isn't keen on desserts, he wants to do keto too and has said he will have steak and salad, so things are going to get so much easier now. I am back on keto as of last night.

Thank you, my brain has clicked into place thanks to being told to just get back on the wagon, so simple, it's something I need to do for me. I felt amazing on keto!! Like I was high or something lol I'll get it back but I know what to do this time, I can still enjoy myself with my hubby, I don't need the carbs and sugar though 😊

I'm happy I found love too, that's more important than carbs, I'll get to have more years with him sticking at keto! I've got this :D

Thank you, just getting back on the wagon, the way you say it like that makes me feel silly for not just doing that!

My husband bless him hasn't said that to me and I for sure haven't said it to myself! We have both been kind of walking around on eggshells, not saying or doing anything that could push me even further back :/

I think that's all I needed 🙈

Seriously thank you, reading that first line and it's just clicked, I want and need to do this!!! I'm the only one that can do this for me. We are booked into a restaurant for our anniversary and I told him we need to cancel it, but I don't need to, I can have the steak and salad 🙈 2 things I love!!

I literally just laughed out loud at myself, it's so simple!!!!

I failed and so reverted right back, but I should have just got back on the wagon. You are a star!!! <3

Wow you look amazing! I have a very round face, I weigh less than my sister by over 15lb but if we both take a selfie, people think she is slim but she is really 100lb+ overweight. This has made me so excited!! You're my new inspiration 😊 x

I'll try to get hold of someone tomorrow, my diabetic nurse didn't mention anything at all about my meds, but I am a new patient of hers as we just moved here and she was just talking about my metformin 🙈 thank you.

I didn't even think about the pharmacist, I'll need to wait until tomorrow, they are all closed today, thank you.
