[QUOTE="LittleGreyCat, post: 2034507, member: 6467"] With respect this is a very carbohydrate heavy diet, and suggests why cutting out the trifle had a "trifling" effect. You eat a lot of pies, which involves a lot of pastry, which is carbohydrate (noting that Shepherd's Pie usually has mash on top and fish pie may as well). You eat quite a few potatoes - also carbohydrate. Orange squash (unless sugar free) is also a major source of sugars. Hmmm...low sugar beans.....are these "No added sugar" beans? [URL]https://www.heinz.co.uk/en/products/beanz/ranges/beanz/heinz-baked-beanz[/URL] Normal is 12.5 grams of carbohydrate per 100 grams. [URL]https://www.heinz.co.uk/products/beanz/ranges/healthy-beans/no-added-sugar-beanz[/URL] No added sugar is 9.5 grams of carbohydrate per 100 grams. If, however, you are eating a full 415 gram tin of beans then you are likely to be eating around 39.2 grams of carbohydrate just from that, as opposed to 51.8 grams of the "normal" beans. I am a fan of baked beans but would never eat more than half a tin at a time. So I think that there is scope to reduce the amount of carbohydrate by altering the way you serve your protein. :) [/QUOTE]
