What have you eaten today? (Low carb forum)
- Thread starter Administrator
- Start Date
Spent the afternoon and evening at a friend’s house, she has type 2 too, so no worries about eating low carb there!
Breakfast: my usual low carb coconut ‘porridge’ with strawberries washed down with a black coffee.
Late morning: black coffee and a carb killa bar.
Skipped lunch.
Mid afternoon: black coffee and slice of toasted Heylo raisin and cinnamon bread.
Dinner: salmon baked with garlic Boursin cheese and cherry tomatoes with sliced courgettes. She said sorry she didn’t serve it up more neatly, she forgot I photographed all my dinners!

Yesterday I had some Haslet and a huge short rib done in the airfryer. Today I have a chicken leg and some sausages. I'm drinking a lot so I'm not getting hungry so that's a bonus. We have sunshine here, hope you all do too,

Mid morning: black coffee with and a carb killa bar.
Very late Pub Lunch for MIL‘s 80th: roast lamb dinner, cabbage and peas, roasted celery, parsnip and carrot, one roast potato, half a Yorkshire pudding and mint sauce. This was a kids size dinner! Blood sugar peaked at only 6.2 which I was happy about.
Evening, black coffee with another carb killa bar.

Lunch- cheese, olives, walnuts Montezuma’s AB
Dinner- slow roast hogget shoulder, cauli cheese and cabbage sauteed in butter.
Quite a lot of tea with whole milk drunk today. I buy direct from local farm and I love it but I think the milk is adding just too many carbs. Lacto free milk has half the carbs but it’s produced by Arla which I’m trying to avoid. Maybe time to try black tea again, I’ve failed so times before.

Morning all. I'm having scrambled eggs with cheese today and a tin of salmon at teatime. Trying to make up for yesterday's overload of carbs. Had my Lunch club's Christmas lunch brought home for me and ate the lot! And I'd been so good! I'm trying to remember the saying....'eat to live not live to eat'. Hmmm. That's a lot to remember!
You are allowed to make the odd mistake. Allowed to be human. If you were talking to someone else put in a similar position, what would you suggest? Therein lies a better solution for next time this happens.
