Today's efforts.
Brunch - 4 slices of spinach bread fried in butter with half a pack of Ardennes pate. Yummishness.
Dinner - Sirloin steak and spinach.
Snack - Dairlyea slices and a pack of Biltong.

@liam1955, this is the thread for "Low Carb" meal records. Your menu for today doesn't look very low carb!! Are you sure you're on the right part of the forum?

B - Bulletproof coffee
Second breakfast! - McDonalds double sausage & egg mcmuffin without the muffin. (I knew I wasn't going to get lunch so I loaded up)

D - Sea bass & asparagus.
S - a piece of cheddar I snaffled whilst cooking for the kids.

My bloods have been a bit higher the last couple of weeks. I think it's because I'm overdoing protein. I'm going to concentrate on my fats for a few days. Now where did I put that avocado?

Ok, I'm awaiting official diagnosis although my Dr has said I AM diabetic. I have a 2nd blood test tomorrow but she very much doubts it will be below 6.0 I'm trying hard to reduce carbs and drastically change my diet and eating (bad) habits so if I'm going wrong then I hope someone will tell me ;) :)

B - None
L - Salad (mixed lettuce leaves, cherry tomatoes, cucumber) with a tin of mackerel. Greek Yoghurt.
S - Broccoli and Stilton Cuppa Soup and 4x Oatcakes
D - Smoked River Cobbler (grilled) and 2 field mushrooms with 2 small slices of wholemeal bread. Small bar (Aldi's) 70% Cocoa chocolate (treat)

And very shortly I need to fast for my blood test so it'll be mineral water only :(
