Hello all - I'm back, at least for today!

Water
Green Tea

Breakfast 3 egg omelette whipped with a spoonful of cream cheese, some spring onion and a few shreds of bacon

Ended up picking all day, not unusual for me at the start of better eating. I made some hardboiled eggs, halved and took out the yolks, whipped up the yolks with cream cheese and bacon bits, a little chilli powder and white pepper then returned the mix to the hollowed egg halves. Not sure if they are called devilled eggs or not, the ones I remember had curry powder in but I didn't want that flavour.

Also had pork crackling and cucumber snacks.

Belly pork bits are cooking now and nearly done, will have some with cucumber for tea.

I will go over to the naughty corner (aka what have you eaten with chat thread) and try to catch up a bit!

Spicy food which is too hot. Nasty people who have no idea on your life journey but feel the need to comment and be cruel.
Coffee and cream x 2
Coffee and unsweetened almond milk
Bacon, egg and sausage. Tomato and mushroom
Homemade cookie
Cottage cheese and tomatoes

Today for lunch I had tinned red salmon low-carb sarnies. The "bread" was a bit odd, I think I prefer the SRSLY brand.

And for dinner I had quite a cheap one. I fried up half a pouch of basmati rice with the last of the mushrooms, chopped smoked frankfurters, some egg bits, onions and peas.

That bread looks lush .

Lunch today was a small(ish) red salmon sourdough sarnie. Blood sugar went from 4.7 -> 6.1 two hours later, so that's not too bad.

For tea I had a chicken tikka with a side salad from the local takeaway. No testing needed, I don't think.

Another hungry day today, which is annoying but can't be ignored cos it hurts. Lots of black coffee. Brunch of home-made soup with leftover chicken. Dinner will be preceded by the Magic Nut bowl and then will be steak with cabbage and cauliflower. Not a wine week, so that's it.

I love the sound of your Magic Nut bowl!

Brunch out today to celebrate eldest daughter’s birthday. 2 Bacon, eggs, 1/2 tomato and a sausage. Wasn’t sure if the sausage might have an effect on BG but no problem. All ingredients locally sourced so will be going back there.
1/2 glass Prosecco and a cup of tea with milk for lunch ( still celebrating her bd!)
Dinner at home was air fried duck breast with buttered cabbage, broccoli and cremated mushrooms. Glass of red.
Photo isn’t true colour - duck was blushingly pink in the middle.
