i need to get back on track

[kazzers]

My daughter used to always ask me if I wanted stuff from the shop and I told her I was going to put a sign on my forehead saying "dont feed your mother" . It can be hard getting back on track, it is a constant battle thats for sure.

Could you please give me an example of a typical day's food as I am struggling with eating low carb I really miss my porridge for breakfast and have a sweet craving first thing in the morning

There's a "What have you eaten today" thread here and also some other ideas regarding recipes and food:

A typical day for me is.
Coffee wth cream
B: scrambled eggs wth cream
S: peanuts or cheese
L: piece of LC baking, coffee wth cream
D: at least 2 cups veges with a creamy sauce and protein
If I crave sometjing sweet I have a piece of LC fudge slice.
My daughters fav for dinner is chicken breast stuffed with cream cheese and cheese and wrapped in bacon and my sons fav is mince patties filled with sour cream and cheese.
I find most of my recipes on Pinterest and I am starting to build up a good little collection now and I always have LC baking in the freezer ready to grab when I feel like it. I found it useful to try one new recipe at a time as it can seem a bit overwhelming at first.

Sugar free jelly with loads of double cream is good for sweat cravings

That great! To think of you being so unwell that you were admitted to hospital, to now being in control! Congratulations, and stick with it!
