IF day so only black tea and black coffees in the morning.
l at 1.30. Cheese and chive omelette, 4 small crackers with butter.
5000 steps, still slow and limpy.
Quinoa and almond scone with butter and tea in local cafe.

B: 1 slice of yesterday's courgette bread with butter. Very filling.
2 hour walk with a friend
L: 4 slices Polish ham with 30g manchego and 6 olives and 1 slice of the courgette bread. Rest is safely in the freezer
Hard afternoon of sewing ( not really my thing, doing a favour for a neighbour) and gardening.

Pudding of yoghurt with raspberries and seeds.
2 glasses of red wine

Cheese and salad, kimchi low carb wrap, glass of lemon / lime cordial with a scoop of Osmolax mixed in for smoko.
A Red Rooster whole cooked chicken, veggies, gravy, lime jelly and a couple of small spoons of two fruits for lunch.
Cold chicken, lettuce and tomatoes in low carb sandwiches to finish the Red Rooster off for supper at six.
 
A lot more food than I intended today. All the family here so it felt like I was feeding the 5000

Lunch: tin of mackerel in olive oil and salad sprinkled with pumpkin seeds. A DGF salted caramel blondie to follow.
D: roast leg of pork, loads of veg - mashed swede, green beans with garlic and almonds, buttered cabbage, cauli and broccoli cheese. A couple of parmesan crisps afterwards and some wine throughout.
@shelley262 glad I’m not the only one to find accidental chocolate!

2 eggs scrambled with butter.
Breakfast is easy, it's later on it all goes wrong.

Edited to confess.
Coffee with cream.
Lunch: salad, crispbreads with mousse de foie.
Tea in the afternoon.
More tea.
Dinner: roasted cauliflower and courgettes, chicken fillet, French beans from the garden.
Several glasses of wine during the evening leading to far too much icecream as a bedtime snack.
Lemon tea.

I bought a couple of Lindt 90% bars, to go into the Christmas lucky dip but I had a couple of squares from one of them a few days ago. Shouldn't have bothered, the sugar content made me feel pretty sorry for myself, fizzing away at the top of my stomach. I didn't think Em would like it, but I offered her some. And she loved it. The child is developing some pretty sophisticated tastes for a 9 year old.

Breakfast today: about 11 am - bacon and eggs.

2nd meal: will be beef ragout from the freezer.

DIL took Em to town to get her a boiler suit so that she can get under the floor and help Neil with the plumbing work he's doing. She loves to feel helpful.

Duck soup? Chinese style with Chinese cabbage, soy sauce and Chinese spices or with mushrooms, carrots and garlic.
Add to chicken stock to enrich it for chicken casserole or pot pie (without the pastry on top) or chowder.
 
BG was dropping too low by the time Em came in from school . I gave her a Cadbury's choc chip brownie as a treat and had one myself to stop the slide into the 3s. It stopped the slide and now up again to 5.4 but yuk! Stomach really didn't enjoy that experience either. Chocolate and me just don't agree, unless it's 100% and even then, I'm not convinced.
 
Started the day with a sort of LC egg McMuffin: LC roll, toasted, filled with a slice of ham, cheese and a fried egg. Very nice.
Lunch: slices of roast beef with h/m coleslaw cherry toms and a gherkin.
Dinner was egg curry. I’d found some curry sauce in the freezer ( leftover from twosleevers.com butter chicken) and having boiled a few eggs for lunches in the week it seemed a natural thing to put the 2 together. No rice or naan needed.
