What's for supper?

At my age using diet and exercise won't be an option much longer not to speak of how losing calories to keep glucose down is fun.
I need to get on glucose, but it will be hard to learn how to control the highs and lows.
Maybe then I can have meals to post here.

You can do it!
Have you considered opening a thread specific to recipes from you and for you?

Some people have really good luck with just doing a low carb diet, getting calories from foods that are high in fats and proteins, and low in carbs. Since it is the fast processing carbs that are the ones that raise your bloods sugars (grains, starches like bread, and any kind of sugary food), if you just have proteins and fats as your main foods, with greens and slow digesting vegetables, you do not have the blood sugar spikes.

Carb manager has a good tracker and shows the carbs in any food, so it helps a lot to track your food intake and carbs each day. It has a free and a paid version, but the free one does everything you need to use the website, @Marie Mallory .

If I may ask... Are you Hypoglycemic? Because if you are not, and do not have low levels of glucose in your blood, you don't need any Glucose.

Or, do you have Diabetes, aka Hyperglycemia, and just said the wrong word? either way, I am diabetic and my son is Hypoglycemic and I can help you learn how to control the highs and lows.

To be sure, go see your Doc and request an HbA1c test. (Aka, an A1c test.)
 
Swedish meatballs that I made served with a mushroom sauce and garnished with parsley flakes..
Fried rice, steamed cauliflower, green peas..
Pineapple chunks..
Pot of tea..
 
I made a meatloaf and put it in the slow cooker along with sweet potatoes to cook for later. Our main meal is somewhere during the early afternoon, usually, and since I started it before 8 this morning, it should be done and ready to eat by then.
We are making the Kroger trip today, so of we find something there that looks good for dessert, we will have that, too.

On my way home from the optometrist I stopped at Subway and picked up sandwiches for our dinner. I also got 2 warm chocolate chip cookies and I'm about to have mine with a cup of coffee.
 
Thank you freezer! Spaetzle, pork loin roast slowly simmered with lots of vegetables. Rabbit food?
Good old fashioned cheese ball and some strips of crisp flat bread with wine to wind down.

Cream cheese, a dab of mayo, cheddar, onion, paprika, cayenne. I freeze it in 1/2 cup canning jars with screw tops.
