What have you eaten today? (Low carb forum)

B- DD Butter eggs
Sn Coffee and double cream
D - Yogurt, cream , Gorilla museli
Sn - few (too many) slices of cheese . Made me really sleepy and almost ruined a busy afternoon of TV watching
T - minced beef, onions couple of tomatoes cooked in butter and olive oil with cheese on top , A tasty , fatty greasy mess
 

What's the fake pasta like? Does it have a similar texture?
 

Well, that has sort of cheered me up, knowing that it can take a couple of years for the dawn phenomenon to subside. Mine still being awful (usually 8 to 10) after 5 months maybe isn’t the disaster I felt it was.
 
B Egg n bacon
L Chopped boiled eggs with salad, mayo and Brussels pâté
Snack - a dozen mussels
D Pizza with extra bacon and cheese, dough base consigned to the bin.
Ending the day with a naughty 9.1 at 11.30pm
Maybe the feeble 5700 steps hasn’t helped.
 

I’ve also found that when my step count is low, my bgs go up. I can’t always manage a good distance though so I’m trying to fit something, anything - exercise bike at home for instance - into the day.
Very impressed that you managed to bung the pizza base in the bin
 
Another early dinner so posting while I remember.

Early: large cafetiere of coffee with cream.

Breakfast: DD breakfast sandwich

Went to a keep fit class in the village hall for over 55s. Not very strenuous but quite a good laugh nevertheless. A very friendly bunch. Cup of tea with milk afterwards ( didn’t want to appear picky or stand offish)

No lunch

Mid aft: 10g walnuts and coffee and cream

Dinner: Smoked duck breast with celeriac remoulade and lettuce followed by a bit of the local stinky cheese with a glass of red.
Finally an IP custard pot and a few Callebaut 100% chocolate buttons.

I hope everyone has had a good day.
 
Breakfast - Hi-lo toast and butter
Lunch - Hi-lo toast, topped with avocado and serrano ham. Strawberries and cream.
Dinner - Bacon and eggs
Snacks - Chocolate and smoked almonds

Well it's been a miserable day here today, which probably explains the amount of bread and pork related products. Can recommend Montezuma's 99% dark chocolate orange and geranium bar. Found it in Sainsbury's so not sure if anyone else stocks it. Its a 100g bar and carbs per 25g is 8g. Not that I'm recommending eating a quarter of the block!! A few squares are a nice treat though
 
Evening. Large lunch and smaller dinner becoming a trend this week.

Lunch - an impromptu one with my best work buddy. Ditched the rollitos stored in the office fridge and went for a kebab. Lamb doner meat (no bread with onions and white cabbage. My veg intake for the week followed by 2 squares Coop 85% chocolate.

Dinner - small piece of the very large smoked salmon loin bought in Ikea. Pan fried with a lemon butter sauce. Delicious.

Editing to say, almost on topic (well kind of food related - made me think of you guys anyway ) just swooning at Monica Galetti on the One Show!

Lovely day, wish I was able to pop off to a fitness class during daylight hrs this time of year, it’s hard finding the will to go when it’s dark and cold
 

What would "just fat" be I can only think of coffee and cream , what else would count ?

You’re so right. Once I get home in the evening and its dark and cold outside, wild horses won’t get me out again.
 
Breakfast: my usual low carb coconut ‘porridge’ with strawberries and cream washed down with a black coffee.
Lunch at a PPG event, took my own rollitos, pork scratchings and a banana Carb Killa bar
Mid afternoon: chia pudding and black coffee.
Dinner: low carb kedgeree (cauli rice, smoked mackerel, garlic, petit pois and eggs) followed by SF jelly, cream and LC chocolate granola.

Edit: forgot the garlic!
