FBG 80. Had 1/4 of a low carb bagel with cream cheese. Net carbs 5 gms.
One hour PP BG 84. Next time, 1/2 bagel! -- Nick. Support severely wounded and disabled Veterans and their families! I've known US vets who served as far back as the Spanish American War. They are all my heroes! Thank a Veteran and Support Our Troops. You are not forgotten. Thanks ! ! ~Semper Fi~ |

Here I thought you were going to tell us a horror story about eating a big honking bagel! I just threw out a package. We go to the bread outlet to get some gluten and soy free beef jerky for Angela and also some honey mustard and other non-bread things. I rarely buy bread in there. But they give you free stuff depending on how much you buy. The free stuff is always bread stuff and I usually qualify for 4 or 5 free things. Last time I could have gotten 4 freebies. There were mainly bagels but also some sourdough rolls and I think maybe some sweet rolls. I have a friend who could use these things, but she's in another city and the cost of gas for me to get them to her would be prohibitive. Otherwise, I don't know of anyone who would use them. I took two packs of bagels giving one to my parents and taking the other home, hoping my husband might eat them before he went out of town. He didn't. Instead, he hoovered my flax seed bread, leaving none for me. I went to the store to get some more, but they were out of it. Grrr... There are only a few stores around here that sell it and I was feeling really sick at the time and didn't feel up to going elsewhere. So I got a loaf of sourdough. It's what I was eating before I found the flax. |

I stretched that 1/4 bagel to four bites. Boo hoo! Someone on rec.food.sourdough mentioned that sourdough is lower carb than regular bread. Also, that whole grain dough makes the lowest net carb bread. Since I'm thinking of getting back into making sourdough bread, I found that interesting. More research needed. -- Nick.

The best bagels were in NYC. Don't remember where. I had 1/2 bagel with cream cheese and a slice of red onion about an hour ago (no tomato or lox on hand). FBG was 78, one hour PP BG was 117. I guess red onions are sweet. ;-/ -- Nick. Support severely wounded and disabled Veterans and their families! I've known US vets who served as far back as the Spanish American War.

Was one of these yesterday and the other today? I am trying to figure out
how you could have 4-5 hours between FBG's ![]() bagel might be from the bagel itself not the onions. 1/4 may be your limit for remaining fairly static.

I guess I should've called the second one 'before dinner' or 'before bedtime snack'. But I'm still not in bed! Think of a knish as a Jewish calzone or empanada. Close enough for folk music.

They are filled with various things. Some are flat and some are ball-like. I had the flat ones and they were filled with cheese and potato and maybe some onion. Had some sort of crust-like coating on them. Not good for diabetics at all. |

FBG is the first of the day and taken when you first step out of bed. |

Seeing you had the second one at 10.20 pm, you might be messing with your natural rhythm. In the early hours your bg may be rising naturally to help you in the morning. I know that DP often occurs not long before waking time but if I stay up past midnight I see mine rising from then. Your late meals might just be screwing with nature. |

LOL Jun's Curry Puffs are Thai Pierogis! She fills them with potato, onion, chicken, curry powder, sugar and she won't tell me the rest, then deep fries them. Light, crisp, delicious, not diabetes friendly. I've asked her to make me a batch using Carbquik™, filling them with apple and pork and Splenda™. Of course I'd keep BG records, but she turns out about 600 Curry Puffs a week, so I'm not pushing her on it. -- Nick. Support severely wounded and disabled Veterans and their families!

Much Jewisn cooking relects the food of the area in which the Jews are living. My ancestors came form RUssia,/Lithuania/Ukraine/Poland back when it was all called Russia, so the family recipes can be quite similar to russian Christian cookingg, with the exception of the kosher requirements of no porkfat, no milk with meat, etc. chicken fat(and gooe adn duck) was the basic non-dairy fat for Jews in that area, but the foods often resemble local native foods. kasha, smoked and pickled fish, etc. Wendy |
