I cried my eyes out when I read that. I was already on edge and that just set me off into tears. Then this happened:
After work, I went home and I cried some more. D. was very reassuring and said some angry stuff that made me laugh. When I woke up this morning, I asked myself how I felt. I felt bullied and scolded. So, I logged on and said so:
I used to wonder why people took internet bullying so seriously - I mean some kids kill themselves over more serious and prolonged internet haranguing! I used to wonder how something someone faceless who means nothing to you says could significantly impact you. Now I know. I don't know why I cared so much - but I know now how it feels.

I read on the forum that eating a protein snack just before you go to sleep can help with night-time blood glucose. So, I made this thing I read about - crustless pizza. Just add 1/2 cup of mozzarella to a skillet - add desired toppings and let it bubble until the edges get brown. Then cool a bit - remove from pan and slice. It tastes just like pizza without the carbs.

That commenter on the forum was really mean! I'm glad other people chimed in and offered helpful advice--and that you stood up for yourself! You'll have to update us on their response to your post :) That pizza snack looks delicious--sometimes when I make grilled cheese for the kids, I put some sprinkles of cheese on the pan to melt down for me to eat, lol. Melted cheese is so good! Have you tried making a cauliflower pizza crust? I've heard it's really good--I'm adding it to my meal plan for next week.
Christina, melted cheese is WONDERFUL!!! I love it. I also love melted and slightly crusted cream cheese - like what comes out of jalapeno poppers when you toast them for too long. :-) Thanks for your support.
I have not made cauliflower crust. I looked at a recipe, and it looked a bit complicated. Will you post pictures and a review if you try it? Maybe if you think it's not too complicated, I'll make it too.
