Questions from England
Hello, I have just decided to try this new way of eating as I need to lose 8 stone (112 punds) and yesterday (my 51st birthday) was told that I am an incipient diabetic who has sleep apnoea. Not the best birthday ever!
Forgive me if this question is answered elsewhere, but are there any conversions for the recipes (quantities and equivalent items) that are on this site for those of us who live in England? As an example, there is a recipe for Guilt Free Chocolate and Banana Pancakes
1 scoop of protein powder (chocolate works best) - can we get this, and if so, where and what brand name(s)?
1 package of splenda - I think that this is a sugar substitute - what is the UK equivalent, and what size is a "package"?
1/2 package of oatmeal - again, what size is a package?
Also, are there any English recipes anywhere? And are there any ready-made eating plans to simplify my life?
Many thanks and wish me success!
