Happy Friday evening all I’ve being waiting the two hours to check my bg levels on trying the spaghetti version of the bean pasta and it’s good news just put up my bg by 0.1 !
On 18/6 so no breakfast
Lunch smoked salmon omelette cooked in coconut oil
Dinner bolognese with bean spaghetti -with 2 glasses of red wine, it’s friday ! - followed by coffee and 2 hotel chocolate 100% cocoa buttons.
If I can keep up my one pound average weekly weight loss I’ll be at my personal target in four weeks and bgs moving more into fours so all good thanks to this low carb way of eating.

9.00 a ramekin of pate, with a spoon
14.00 pork tongue. Haven’t had it for YEARS. Had forgotten how delicious it is! My mother used to do lamb’s tongues with onion when we were kids. Loved them too.
18.00 pork mince formed into a burger with a smear of tomato puree, a smear of dijon mustard and some grated cheese. I also (stupidly) had a spoonful of the fried onion rings i did for Mr B. Regretting them now!

Edited to add: and a glass of goatsmilk kefir

Good morning all.

Friday ...

Breakfast: Two double decaffeinated espressos with cream and xylitol. Two scrambled eggs, roasted vegetables, a tablespoonful of hummus and about 90g of fried lamb.

Lunch: Nothing.

Dinner: Out at our favorite tapas place. Mussels in a spicy tomato sauce, lamb skewers with a bit of green bellpepper, some Manchego cheese, one and half glasses of dry red wine and two rather large sips of my hubby's pilsener.

Hungry again when we got home, so I had a wiener sausage and some low-carb chocolate mousse with whipped cream.

What a great picture that creates in my mind. Pate with a spoon. Since I love pate its a tempting one - especially my sister's home made one with oodles of garlic. Yum!

Well bed 5.2 and FBG was also 5.2. To be honest not a lot is going on with my BG . Worst today was 6.3 and I forgot to take my meds as well.
B. Tassimo Americano grande with a dash of cream. Was off to swimming with No 1 grandson after that.
L. Went for my usual DD no bread sandwich and another coffee before heading out shopping.
D. Still had roast chicken from yesterday so chicken , left over best every cheesy cauliflower, 3 mini plum tomatoes, tablespoon of coleslaw and Helmanns.
I've taken my afternoon meds but despite the food I'm hanging about at 4.8. As I said previously , if this keeps up I think I'll need a medication review.

Hi all. Liver in full swing today - dumped all morning and took an age to get down to my normal levels despite fasting and an early morning trip to the gym.

Started my one meal a day - aiming for a full two weeks to see if I can start losing weight again. So no breakfast or lunch.

Dinner was brined chicken leg with cauliflower cheese and a dessert of chocolate chia pudding with cream.

Good luck with the new way of eating hope it’s not difficult for you. I found today was so cold and grey I had to work hard to keep to away from breakfast and needed my lunch!

Thanks. I’ve done it before but takes some willpower. I was also hungry today - was definitely ready for dinner!

Any idea what is causing the dump? I thought you were well past that.

So did I! I usually get a small rise and head down pretty quickly but not today. No obvious cause although I did wake up very sweaty in the night, so wonder if I went a bit low and the liver over reacted.

9.00 coffee substitute and lamb broth
14.00 steak with stilton and a dab of butter
20.00 glass of goatsmilk kefir

Blimey - How many calories is that @Brunneria ? I'm not a calorie counter, but my gut feel say unless the steak was of Fred Flinstone dimensions there could be quite a shortfall there.

That or I'm just a skinny old hungry horse!

Haha! I hadn’t given it a moment’s thought. But i just looked it all up on Tescos website.
I figure about 7-900 cals plus the fat on the broth and the cream.
Don’t worry, i’m not starving myself And yesterday i ate 3 meals, but then only felt like eating once today.

Have been reading up on this Zero Carb thing, and naturally drifting into only eating when hungry seems a common feature. Like keto, but a bit moreso.
