People who think they know everything.
Breakfast: Boiled egg and buttered lidl protein roll soldiers

Lunch: Green salad and an 80g tin of tuna in olive oil which has chilli and garlic in it

Dinner: Home made beef burgers topped with Stilton - or I might attempt to put the Stilton in the middle with romaine, tomatoes and either red onion or avocado.

It's shopping delivery day tomorrow so not a lot of choices of fresh stuff left in the house. Which, I suppose, is as it should be....

@Angelofthemarches hello:). I haven't been eating them ..... But funny enough I was just thinking about having a tub. :) Trouble is I've been eating cashew nuts instead and they have a lot more calories.
I've never tried the pomegranate pots, but whenever you mentioned them I thought ooh they sound quite nice!!

Hi @mo53

I fry bacon (being lazy I use a couple of packs of lardons) and 1 medium onion and add to a large, pre-greased ceramic dish. I then beat 10 eggs with 300 mls double cream and pour over the bacon and onion and then add a bit of cheese. Top with thinly sliced tomato and bake until set. It's really filling and I get 5-7 portions out of that (keep a couple of larger portions for lunches, smaller ones for breakfast). Freezes really well too.
I will def try that!!

Glad it was a success. I have the last piece of mine defrosting for tomorrow's breakfast.

A bit better today bed on 7.7 (or was it 7.8?) and FBG of 8.5 so still high but a lot better than before. Feeling less stressed today.
B. Nothing. Did the usual school run but was giving son a lift to hospital for an outpatient appointment plus I had No 2 grandson for the day. Result it was so late when I got the chance to eat decided lunch was a better option.
L. The other Diet Doctor trout fillet from yesterday. As delicious cold as hot. Romaine lettuce, 4 Vittoria tomatoes, mini applewood smoked and mini Cornish cove, 3 walnuts and tbsp of Helmanns.
D. Diet Doctor stuffed chicken breast with cheese, jalapeno etc. A @Brunneria fest with veggies....Asparagus, brussel sprouts, mini cauliflower and broccoli - all steamed and 1/2 a roasted aubergine.
Still drinking loads of water.
