Thanks for that I just need the flour and the little pasta machine. Suppose you can just roll it out thin and make shapes out of it? I'll give it a go whatever soon.

Yes, I've noticed this myself. Always prefer fresh to frozen also. My favourite roasted Parsnips have had to bite the dust though.:(

Interesting; what's your recipe for the pasta? I may have a go.

Another one I just thought of is Cereals. Must have been getting through about 3 boxes of different ones per week.

I just typed in 'Diet Cost' when I did a quick search.

Pressure cookers are great been using one for years. You can cook a load of braising steak in about an hour instead of about 5 hours.

Yeah, I hadn't factored in the snacks I no longer buy. Was spending a small fortune on crisps alone. Also stopped drinking fruit juice. I expect it'll work out pretty similar.

I'm pretty sure it is but I haven't worked it out yet. Just wondered.

Yeah, I'll be returning to a low carb diet now. They made no impovement to my energy levels anyway.

I had to do it. So depressed at the way things were going. Had to relieve the pressure..

Drank 4 Coors Lites so far plus 2 large vodka and orange.

I know it is, but I was going for a swim in 2 hours. thus from what I've read on here, negating the effects of eating so many carbs.

Well after trying the different breakfast, ( avacado, Porridge with some allbran, four crumpets with cheese on), I felt just the same. Walking slow when out with the dog, leg fatigue when cycling to the swimming pool and only being able to swim at a reduced pace. 4 pieces of belly pork 1 chicken...

I'm contemplating having a few beers and a couple of shorts tomorrow. Gave it a miss last saturday: first time in years. Coors Lite Beer and Vodka and Fanta Orange Zero. If I can I'll stick to about 4 Beers and a couple of very large shorts. Pork Scratchings and a few peanuts for nibbles.

Not really counting them I just put the veg on the plate till it looks enough plus the meat. Cabbage, Broccolli, Swede, Spinach. Minced Beef , Belly Pork , good quality Sausages, Chicken Thighs. Also add a bit of butter to the veg. Still in the proces of sorting my diet out; bit of trial and...

Thanks. I know about the salt and plenty of water. I always have a few bottles at the side of the PC so get plenty. Have a cup of Bovril most days plus the salt on food.

Type 2. Not on any meds, trying to solve things through diet. Funnily enough I started feeling pretty good after coming back from a swim earlier and having something to eat. Maybe the start of something good. I feel getting enough sleep is vital for me, but having to go to the toilet up to 4...

Felt a bit run down first few days plus a headache and coughing. Now I just don't seem to have the same energy I used to have. Read that it only lasts for a few days but in some cases up to 3 weeks. I told myself I would give it a good go and give it 100% for up to 2 months. So carrying on with...

I'm in the same boat. 12 days. Waiting for this boundless energy to kick in.

Yes, those are the ones I was having. Bought a Burgen Loaf earlier with some Crumpets and Muffins. I intend eating these when I'm due for a swim, (4 times per week). It;'s just for a bit of variety really also an experiment to compare my energy levels when swimming. I start tomorrow, (Saturday)
