It's keto!That sounds like something I could only dream of having.

You do not need to eat at regular intervals. Another myth unless medications or other health conditions dictate otherwise. Most of us eat when we are hungry and not otherwise. Having longer breaks between meals allows your insulin levels to fall, which is good. We do not need to limit portion size, other than carbs, or possibly if you are gaining weight when you don’t want to. Most of us easily lose weight despite eating til we’re full so long as it’s not carbs. If you are hungry you need more fat and maybe protein.I have no appetite this evening.
I had my lunch too late and too much. I will have to face this at work, but need to be more structured with my meals at home.
I fancied a sweet, so 2 tablespoons of greek yoghurt, a few blueberries and a crumbled piece of 85% chocolate. I am telling myself it is the best desert in the world.
I will do it with toasted almonds and double cream, as suggested, next time.
Thank you so much HSSS, I really, really needed to hear thatYou do not need to eat at regular intervals. Another myth unless medications or other health conditions dictate otherwise.

I was just about rant about veg lol. Have been eating so much, very hard.Add a little nutmeg to greens, I love it. Do you like bacon?
Depends who is running it. It could be a weight watchers cut fat lose weight message (literally run by them). It could be Xpert and low carb. It seems to vary regionally by a worrying amount.Have just seen a new entry on the 20th in my gp notes:
