Breakfast natural yogurt tbl sp seeds and berries lunch small bowl of leftover pork casserole from last night (pork, onion and mushrooms) Dinner paprika chicken, cauli broccolli and cabbage snacks 2 cubes cheese and still to have pork scratchings.

Have the pork scratchings ready for tonight... :) must admit Fat does seem to work.... A couple of cubes of cheese did the trick earlier.

Oh wow that sounds good! Thank you.

Thanks.... I thought about the chocolate but tbh i'm not sure I would have the will power to have a couple of squares at the moment. Ended up having full fat cream cheese and cucumber sticks....not quite the chicken and mushroom pastie thats my usual go to....but it did the trick :)

Basically I have cut out bread, pasta, rice, potatoes, root veg and refined sugars. I did try to increase fat intake but it made me sick so am having what...

I think thats what the issue was no energy...heavy week at work, had been weepy all day and just gave in. Back on it today though. Thanks.
