Hi @Thornliebank Surreal is a cereal marketed as high protein but if you choose the gluten free versions they are way lower carb than traditional cereal. I eat the chocolate one which is 8.6g carbs per 40g portion.


Edited to add link.
 
Breakfast kefir with low carb granola followed by a poached egg on LC toast.
Lunch experimented with making a fish pate using a tin of sardines in olive oil blended with lemon juice and horseradish - won't be doing again really didn't like it but ate it with some of the last of my LC M and S seeded crackers. I enjoy mackerel pate so will stick to making that in future!
Dinner salmon, broccoli and peas followed by a hm LC chocolate brownie.

Had a hectic morning, no breakfast and only one cup of coffee ( I usually have 3 before I can start to function) managed a couple of squares Montezuma’s AB mid morning.
Late lunchtime when I got home, absolutely ravenous. Found some DietDoctor recipe Swedish meatballs in the freezer so I had those with a handful of spinach.
Dinner was fresh mackerel fillets fried in a little olive oil with a green salad. Slice of LC lemon cake.
