4.4 this morning
breakfast: 2 rashers back bacon, 1 grilled tomato, one poached egg
Dinner: Small lamb steak with asparagus and cabbage
Through day I had two cups of coffee with cream. Skipped lunch today becaue I didn't want a repeat of the last couple of weekend's high readings after eating at the pub - I work at the pub BTW and they feed me. Chef is very god about respecting LCHF but my pre and postprandial readings are always higher at weekends - in the 6's rather than 5/4's. Not sure why...
