Disappointing dinner
Before dinner BG 82. I made a CarbQuik pancake. Supposed to only have 6 gms
of net carbs. 1/2 cup CarbQuik™ 1 Tsp Splenda™ bulk or 1 packet (I used one packet) 1 tsp baking powder 1 egg, very well beaten or whipped (I didn't beat or whip it) 1/4 stick (2 Tbs) butter (melted, not hot) 3 Oz half-and-half (maybe I should have used heavy cream and water?) One hour PP BG 143! Two hour 105. I used twice as much half & half as in the scaled down original recipe, which also didn't call for baking powder. I made a syrup by mixing Splenda with butter until it was slightly sweet. Damn, I can't do anything right! -- Nick. Support severely wounded and disabled Veterans and their families!

Did you have anything else besides the pancake? |

Did you have anything else besides the pancake? Good idea. Thanks, Ozgirl. I'll try that when I get what seems to be an anomolous reading. All I had was the pancake. -- Nick.
