Snack: Krackawheat crumbs and butter..... new packet looked a bit battered and when I opened it a lot of broken bits fell out..... was checking if there were any full ones for breakfast tomo then remembered I'm having breakfast out tomorrow so it will be Full English and tea will then be same as today
 
Breakfast: bacon and fried eggs
2nd breakfast: bacon, pork sausage, scrambled eggs
Lunch: Rib (cap off) grilling steak

Second dinner: bacon and fried eggs

That's more bacon than I usually eat, but I had to get up at 2:45 am for a function - hence 2 breakfasts.
Normally I don't have breakfast.
 
Just had bacon, eggs, mushrooms and half a Lidl bread roll - long day on the bike today so packing seeds, nuts and water.
 
Breakfast: 2 slices of gluten free bread, with cheese and a pile of fried beef slices, white coffee with Xylitol
Lunch: Chicken soup with lots of veg and a bit of meat, followed by 3 Aberdeen Angus sausages with baked beans, tea
Yummy;-)
Off to fetch a prescription for my youngest princess:-)

some of the natural type bars are but between meals they're ok for me as I don't do low carb per se, just eat to my meter

plus there's that "available carbs" thing.....
 
B: omelette with stilton, walnuts & mushrooms cooked in butter
L: cheese pie with spinach & rocket salad; tomato, avocado & onion salsa
D: chicken thigh with cream, mustard & tarragon sauce; roasted cauliflower & fennel; green beans (are green beans ok on LC diet?) Followed by coconut & lime custard with strawberries. Well it has been Father's Day! Yes he also ate this for dinner and claimed to like it :)

Sounds nice, haven't tried cooking walnuts in an omelette....
Pretty sure green beans are ok.... the Low Carb version of this thread would be able to advise better I think though.....
