Hi juju

Breakfast - eggs/bacon/mushrooms/tomato, cheese omelette, full fat Greek yoghurt and a few berries

Lunch - salami or similar, olives, cheese, salad leaves, avocado, mackerel pate

Dinner - meat or fish with above-ground veg, salad, berries & cream

Just stay clear of bread, pasta, rice and potatoes.

Hi. As for Sanguine, but have a look at the carbs in the Cup of soup as it may contain sugar and starch

Look for foods which have less than 10g total carbs per 100g, 5g per 100g if you can. '... of which sugar' is irrelevant. The book 'Carbs & Cals' is good.
