Had a slice of melon this morning. Gives me a lot less calories than eating porridge for breakfast. Cut the melon into 4, then cut a slice crossways to divide it into two. The slice weighed 200g, but 70g was the peel, so what was eaten weighed 130g. This came to 47 kcals, whereas my 40 g porridge (with whole milk, sugar and cinnamon) had been coming to 354 kcals. I will need some whole grains from time to time to help stabilise my blood sugar, but even so, this was a saving of 307 kcals, which gives me more for the other meals. I only started to get hungry again at lunchtime, so this was worth doing.
Looking round other people's exercise diaries, I'm realising that the people who are losing the most weight most consistently are those who walk a lot. Some people are doing walks which are amounting to 1.5 or 2 hours per day. Might try walking more, but it's such horrible weather at the moment. Another possibility is trying a few exercises indoors and doing each one for 5 minutes. I don't want to be a drowned rat, so I think I'll try a short walk and some floor exercises.
Really overdid the fruit today and had a bit of somnolence because of it. Normally I have two fruits a day, so I'll have to keep to this in future. The somnolence seems to happen when I spike my blood sugar or have too much fat. I've noticed it happening after: chocolate, too many carbs (such as potato), after a lamb chop if I don't remove some of the fat and if I eat a heavy meal (e.g. if I go back for an extra helping of chilli con carne). This would tie in with the role of sugar and fat in diabetes. The official treatment is "5 small meals a day" and keeping a decent amount of fibre in the diet. Losing weight helps with diabetes, so I'm hoping it will help to get rid of the hypoglycaemia. Has anyone else tried the "5 small meals a day" diet?
