What have you eaten today? (Low carb forum)

[Annb]

One or two meal day today - not sure which. Starting some time soon (when the smoke clears) with some belly pork which I was finishing in the oven after frying quickly to seal them. Oven too hot and the kitchen is full of smoke. So now the window is open and the fan is going full blast. At least I realised and stopped the smoke emissions before the fire alarms went off.

If I have a second meal, it will be more of the beef stew I made the other day.

I've been looking at the M&S website to see if I could find those sausages that Maglil had, but no luck so I'll just have to work it out for myself. Not sure what kind of cheese to use though - riccotta style or hard cheese style. Maybe try 2 lots and a bit of both and see what happens.

I did have the beef and ginger stew for my second meal but what I'd put in the box as a portion(2 serving spoonsful) was far too much, so I couldn't finish it. It was also a little bit spoiled by addition of the bean sprouts. Never again.

Thanks for the anniversary wishes everyone. I’m really not sure how 40 yrs have disappeared.

Today was a more sober affair:

B- 2 h/b eggs, chilli sauerkraut.

L-SLC split, one half with cream cheese and smoked salmon ( as the lunchtime news announced that over 65s should stop eating smoked salmon for fear of Listeria poisoning - I’m only 64 so will get stuck in). The other half with smoked mackerel fillet and cream cheese mixed with wasabi paste. It was gorgeous.

D- Sausage meatballs with fresh tomato sauce. Pasta for Paul, couple of slices of SLC bread for me.
Snack at some point - mini bar of Montezuma’s absolute black.

I didn't hear that news item. Don't think I shall worry about Listeria though. I do like smoked salmon.

Sausages and well fried eggs, two slices toast and vegimite for breakfast.
Roasted pork shoulder, veggies, gravy for lunch.
Chicken in buffalo sauce nuked for five minutes in the microwave for supper at six.

Mug of black billy tea before going to bed.

Home made Rosecoco beans, chickpeas, mushrooms, chicken, carrots, onions & tomatoes soup. For brunch.

It seemed a knee jerk reaction to me too. There have only been 8 reported cases apparently, and I think that isolating the source of the problem - presumably at a specific processing plant, like the bagged salad a few years ago, will be more useful than a blanket ban on eating it.

Back from seeing the nurse and telling her how useless the stockings were so now my legs are bandaged again and I can't comfortably wear my shoes. Heigh ho ...

I was rushing a bit this morning so I just had a wheat wrap with some ham - no bread left and only the one wrap. Result? Indigestion! Of course.

Feel I have to do some baking for my guests tomorrow (it's expected of me) so was up in the early hours, not able to sleep, making pastry for a tart. Just made some frangipane to go into it. Not for me though. I shan't indulge. Promise.

For me, in a while, bacon and eggs and hope it will be enough to keep me going all day. If not, there is still some ham in the fridge.

Brunch - two hardboiled eggs and an avocado. Dinner will be chicken salad and I'll have a GLASS OF RED WINE!
How big a glass, I hear you ask. A bottle lasts me 5 days. I did 11 months teetotal after initial diagnosis, and now am experimenting with the wine. I never did have more than one glass.

Coffee and cream
Mozzerella Cheese tomato and avocado oil herbs
Fish and small amount of mixed veg.
Fage 5% Yogurt

Real coffee ice cream.

70% chocolate while watching bakeoff

Snacked on nuts at some point.

It's 20 past 5 am. I'm on my third cup of tea since 2.30 am and thinking about breakfast. Bacon and egg beckons, but it's far too early yet, so it will just have to beckon for a while. Animal Cops is playing in the background and I'm trying to finish up all that I didn't do last night because I was so tired.

My plan for a main meal today was the experimental sausages that I'd promised myself but with all that's happening today, I don't think there will be time or energy. Maybe tomorrow and I'll make do just with bacon and eggs for today. But I suppose I shall have to show willing and have some of the salad at lunch time when my friends come. Salad really isn't my thing. Maybe just snack on bits of cheese.
