What have you eaten today? (Low carb forum)

[dunelm]

TWAM until after swimming lesson - 6.30 to 10.40 - then a soy milk latte with sugar free caramel. 1.20 lunch of very large salad with avocado,egg, tuna steak and mackerel fillets in EVO (leaving the bream) . Evening meal at 17.20 was pot roast brisket, portobello mushrooms, celery and celeriac pellets; h/m LC trifle. More food than I think I need and dessert 3 days running is not going to become 4 - that'll do me for sometime.

I have no idea what most of this is but a star rating for mentioning the Tyne and Wear Archives & Museums and that trendy motoring magazine EVO.

Still laughing at Tyne and Wear Archives &Museums @dunelm
When are you going to Texas?

Breakfast today was a cheese omelette
Lunch after swimming was the leftover chicken &kale soup from yesterday, then 3 strawberries and cream
Dinner a fresh tuna steak with asparagus and a salad of rocket and avocado with hempseed hearts sprinkled on. 2strawberries and cream.

@Mongolia I made that sauce just now - incredibly I had all the ingredients ( no idea how long the rice wine vinegar has been in the cupboard) I agree it’s lovely, I ate a fair bit while decanting it to a jar for the fridge!

D: huge bunless burger, half a dozen chips and some excellentcompany and conversation

Today:
B: https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B0764HZQ9L/
Surprisingly palatable, but felt v floppy all day. Suspect a food intolerance somewhere. They were for Mr B, and he loved them, so next time I will let him eat then all!
L: chicken breast baked with cheese and bacon.
Still feeling floppy.
D: homemade cheesy mince.
Still feeling floppy.

Hi all

Intended to miss Lunch but got hungry again so early pm had a small tin sardines in olive oil and a couple of lc seeded crispbreads
Dinner 2 lamb chops with cauliflower cheese followed by sf jelly and spoonful of double cream and yoghurt.

Oh lord @dunelm sorry we’re so difficult over here! But as I’m sure you know, Texas will make you feel very welcome!
Snap @ianpspurs and @DJC3 I’m having tuna steak and baby bellas for supper!

That looks good. Tuna melts?

Sure is

Texas? I have been there 4 or 5 times. Houston.

I went swimming this morning too and found exactly the same - I was ravenous afterwards. Could barely wait to heat my soup up, and had to have a double dollop of cream with my pud.

 

[maglil55]

Is it considered lucky to get a double yolker or is it just me who feels really happy when that happens?

No, I do too. 5 out of 6 of the eggs in that box were double yolk. I get them in Tesco. They're Scottish extra large and there seems to be an incredible number of double yolks in them. So much so that I buy other eggs if I'm going to be baking. I actually get quite disappointed if it's not a double yolk.

They are delicious and so easy to make!

I think there might be a few of us posting photos of these tomorrow - they look great.

I shall look out for them, but have a feeling they might only be available in Scotland. I don’t think Ive seen them here.

It sounds silly but I've stopped watching the news because of the constant and unrelenting Brexit news reporting. On the odd occasions that Mr C has turned it on its been like Groundhog Day with the same things being said by the same people and all coming to the same conclusions.

Today's food

Breakfast: Nothing
Lunch: Nothing
Dinner: Not hungry... I did go for a rummage in the biggest freezer to try to find something that might persuade me that eating is a good idea and am now defrosting some chicken wings

Drinks: About 3 litres of water - no coffee

Got to agree on the TV. Hubby has to turn it over before I start throwing things at it. Goodness knows how this will end but I honestly believe the MPs have taken leave of their senses (and I include ALL of them in that).

Dinner: Mutton fore quarter chops, and veggies, brown onion gravy.
Breakfast: My favourite meal of the day, mushroom and cheese omelette, bacon, tomato, reheated spudlite.

Drinks: Black coffee no sugar / sweeteners, water.

Just got my invoice for my HB low carb bread, should be delivered this morning.

as good as. Lol.
When we first met I was tutoring in a university, which is an even worse plague pit than a primary school. Fresher’s Flu, anyone? *shudder*
So we learned to initiate Plague Protocols - with great success.
Basically, the sick person stays out of the kitchen (even the fridge and kettle), and doesn’t touch the healthy person’s cutlery or crockery. Bathroom hygeine is increased, including door handle and taps.

And generally, we don’t swap germs. Which is great.
The only thing that has sneaked through (and caused us both to catch the bug)in a looooong time, was the Flu this last xmas.

So far, I am clear of this one. Phew!

And I thought nothing was worse than the germ ridden infestations of pre school and primary. Bugs & Beasties!

First time we arrived in the USA was LA after a very long flight from Fiji where I had a "person" in front (sorry he was American) who put his seat all the way back and kept it there for the duration of the flight almost cutting off my circulation. I only got peace when they came with food and I complained bitterly to the flight crew because he still wouldn't put his seat up. I resorted to childish behaviour kneeing the back of his seat which started him off so I pointed out I had to exercise to avoid DVT - GET over it! Immigration in LA was a nightmare, we'd arrived before we left with the dateline and it almost put me off setting foot in the USA ever again. We did and have to admit we met the most wonderful people in DC and New York. Even immigration in DC was wonderful.
