"What have you eaten" Parallel Chat

Looks amazing, tasted absolutely horrible.
Not the Brussels sprouts with cream cheese and bacon bits of course, can't go wrong with that.

But the experimentally flavoured meat loaf was a complete disaster, and it went in the bin after a few bites.
Worse, this was going to be the main component of my meal for the next 3 days on the bridge, and now it's in the bin!

I'll improvise and I'm sure I'll think of something to accompany my sprouts tomorrow on the bridge.
No idea yet so feel free to throw in suggestions which only need a microwave.

You could make some kind of frittata at home to heat up. Or some high-protein ready-meal. I did like Lidl's Polish meatloaf, which can be eaten hot or cold. Or some ham, either a ham hock or sliced ham..... or some kind of egg (make sure you cook on the lowest setting of the microwave or you'll end up with a bullet).

PS Ate a shedload of grapes after supper as they were fresh - I bought a mixed pack, the black ones for my husband and the green ones for me!
 
Can't believe I just did an online shop for Christmas Eve! I had a message first thing that slots were open and I particularly wanted a Christmas Eve slot this year - so got on with it. I just put my usual stuff in the basket to hold the spot but need to think about things like the size of Turkey needed and add later. Christmas planning \marketing definitely starts earlier every year! It's not even really got cold yet! In the real world it's a lovely day and I have gardening plans plus less tempting but necessary gutter clearing jobs. Also need to bake some low carb bread.
@jpscloud pleased you found some cheerful plants they make a big difference at this time of year.
I'm planning a proper breakfast today after a few days of quick rushed ones - I'll do roasted tomatoes, bacon and egg on low carb toast.Dinner will be haddock in a tomato sauce and veggies. Using up the rest of my fresh tomatoes which have been ripening indoors and then I'll be in to the frozen ones!
 
Porridge for breakfast, cottage cheese salad for lunch and chili con carne for tea.

It was rainy this morning so I did some tidying up in the house. I also chopped and froze two punnets of mushrooms ready to use in slow cooker meals, and I'll get some rice cooked and cooled for resistant starch to have with tea.
 
There's a punnet of chestnut mushrooms in the fridge to use so 2nd meal will be that plus some onions, chicken style vegan protein and some keto orzo.

Feeling rather nauseous again and, this time, I think it is the weight loss pills doing it. My friend, who is on the injections, suggested it might make me feel ill but insisted that if I just keep going despite that, I'll get through it. I didn't have any intention of not doing so anyway, but she says you get used to it and it doesn't happen any more. Here's hoping.
