I am able to drink wine and soda, I tend to go for some of the low alcohol ones that have low sugar too, but I only drink them occasionally, I'm practically tee-total these days, and don't miss it at all.

I have just discovered that Bourneville do bags of large dark chocolate buttons, I have 8 and suck them slowly so they last, a bag will last a week or 2 as I don't have them every night :)

I'm lucky enough to be able to tolerate porridge with some berries, or thick greek yogurt and berries x

I only drink them if out and I just don't fancy a cup of tea or water, no harm in the odd one or two, but I would get a headache and feel bloated if I had more than that or on a regular basis.

I eat natural greek yogurt with berries, thawed from frozen so there is lots of nice juice! :happy:

I make cauiflower rice in the blender, spiralize courgettes if I feel the need for the texture (I often don't and just have extra meat and veggies) :)

I make porridge with water then mix a greek yogurt to make it nice and creamy, adding berries for some extra flavour.
