Had to rush supper, to make it in the time allowed.

While lunch was small, it was large enough to limit how much I could eat for supper.  Actually, breakfast and lunch are both small.  Sort of the point.

Supper was a new food.  Well, new and old.  Diced tomatoes, the hamburger I have cooked and stored, cheddar and parmesan cheeses, and a type of noodle, a keto noodle.  This time it was the palm heart type.

I basically added everything but the tomato, into a frying pan.  One I can bake.  Put that in, and let it work for fifteen minutes, at 400F.  Then remember the tomato, added that, then let it cook for another 10 minutes at 350F.  Actually, I then added the cheese, and let it sit for about five minutes.  Sprinkled with the smallest few fleck of one of my exceedingly hot spices.  And... done.

I wasn't sure I would like these noodles at all.  To be honest?  They were... a good filler.  They weren't a negative.  Just, understand, they aren't pasta.  But they really weren't too bad.  I will have no trouble eating these, in the future.  The trick, from what I saw and read, is to cook them long enough to take the crunch out of them.  And, I pretty much did that.  I still think boiling them, for five to eight minutes, then adding them to the sauce, and doing that for a bit, might be even better.  But, this wasn't bad.  It was a good dinner.  And I have half of it left over for tomorrow.

With it, mint tea.  I added several drops of sweetener.  Oh, and I have found a bread which is low carb.  It is cut thin, and rather small, but...  I baked that for seven minutes, with butter and garlic powder on it.  I think, next time I want to try to toast that, I will use the air fryer.  I have heard these protein breads are difficult to toast, but that the air fryers work.  Still, it... wasn't bad, either.  Only one slice, and that was 12 grams of carbs itself.  

I probably had 18 grams of carbs today, a bit higher than usual, but... sometimes you just have to splurge?  :)  I did take 6 cc's of fast acting, given both that the meals were very close together, and that I ate a bit more in carbs than hoped.  Well, and the extra sweetener.  Technically is it zero carb, but it doesn't always act like that.  Now to not eat anything for the rest of the day?  That's the plan.

If I really have to have something, I will have a fatted coffee, with just a tablespoon of cream.  Though the goal really is no more carbs.  Or... fats, proteins, potential glucose triggers.  So, water, plain or minted (unsweetened) tea, perrier, or even plain coffee.  Though coffee, in some circles, is questionable.  Can't say I have experience with black coffee.  Might have to try it, just to know for myself.  When something has people on both sides of the fence, it is often just that people react differently.  The only way to know is to try.  Better to know, if you might consider going there.  Knowing limits and such.

Oh, heck, it is almost time to test blood sugar.  I think I'll wait longer though, another hour.  Technically I was supposed to take blood sugar reading before supper, but it was too close to after lunch.  Strangely full?  Almost overfull, in spite of eating only half or what I made.  Stuffed, and it really wasn't that much.  Just, sort of, like how real pasta does.  Only, with real pasta, I usually end up eating a third to an half pound of the pasta alone, in two or three plates.  Pasta is weird that way... can't stop.

Oh, and I have some of this stuff in a rice form.  I won't mind trying it.  It really isn't a bad option.  Later.
