Different subject, sorry! Can anyone tell me if Soya flour is of use in low-carb cooking?

Golden Milk?

A spoonful of Marmite in hot water makes a great alternative; I don't care for Miso much.

Instead of yoghurt, add some double cream. Yum!

Not Metformin in my case, just no hunger - :(

This is a totally out of date topic, but I have SO lost my appetite since being on LCHF! Anyone else suffering the same? I feel I can't eat anything; I'm just so bored with it all. (Weight loss stalled about 3 weeks ago which may have a lot to do with my lack of enthusiasm!)

8lbs in a month will have to do for now! Still thrilled with this regime.

Mmmmmm useful for future recipes. Thanks

My Fitness Pal is a must for me. It does keep telling me I'm eating too much fat, but I need to juggle with my goals to eliminate that. It's a great way to keep an eye on carbs.

I'm trying to find that out also. Help, you knowledgable folk out there!

@AtkindsMo - 'refused potatoes'?

@LittleGreyCat - your post "I will be particularly interested to see if the daily rate of weight loss slows down gradually as I lose more weight." I find the loss slows considerably after the first week or so, don't lose heart - it's all good!

2 boiled eggs for breakfast, Lambs liver for lunch. I tried coating it in crushed pork scratching instead of breadcrumbs, but really they were gross so had the liver plain fried. Nice. No carbs!! Cream in my coffee at coffee time and we're planning prawn frittata for supper. Yum! Weight's...
