Yes, you are correct. I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes, so I have to keep the carbohydrates / sugars to a minimum, but also have a regular intake every few hours. It's an annoying balancing act. I have a larger frame, occasionally lift weights and I was going to be doing a lot of walking down at the beach that day and I didn't eat the whole thing either and threw most of it away.

My dietitian has a policy of "no bad foods" but rather focuses on encouraging making educated choices. I read food labels on packaging and check various websites for calories, carbohydrates, sugar and fat levels, etc.

However, I will be honest that this was me being very naughty.
My focus was largely on making the best FFF photo that I could. It could have been the thumbnail image, but I felt the Jetty photo was a better artistic choice. I have a photo of a custard filled chocolate donut with a dollop of jam on top from months ago. I'm just waiting for context to put it all together.

Desserts are often designed to be appealing to the eye and this was what motivated me for this particular entry.

But my diet is rather boring. Bell peppers and hummus? Fancy!
It beats the frozen veggies and tuna I normally eat.

Thank you for the reminder to stay on track.
