@Rachox my last 2 Libres failed, at least they are good at replacing them.

Yes, rang this morning, replacement in the post!

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 another carb killa bar.
Dinner: kedgeree made with cauliflower rice.

 
You put me to shame, @Rachox - but at least mine's low-ish carb.

I was going to have a steak, but I didn't fancy it. Instead I had a battered haddock fillet, the last of my Jersey Royals, and some button mushrooms.

 
Weather horrid again this morning so decided on some baking. 1st Panda porridge slices - these had the taste and texture of a hobnob. Very nice. I didn’t add the sweetener ( 30g erythritol in recipe) as I thought they’d be sweet enough with the coconut, inulin and vanilla. They didn’t need it.
Then 2 packet mixes from the low carb food co: Very Merry Muffins ( I made into a loaf) which is lovely spicy moist cake. I’ll freeze slices and spread with butter like a malt loaf.
Lastly Low Carb and Keto Seedy Cracker. These taste great and are v low carb. They are quite fragile and crumbly though and I can’t imagine they’d take the weight of a lump of cheddar. I’ll have to reverse the order and put the cracker on top of the cheese!
All in all a successful morning ( I only sampled all the bakes so I could, with hand on heart post in this thread saying I’d eaten them)
 
Your bakes look like a real success -a great creative thing to do on a rainy morning. Looks like a rainy few days later this week I may be low carb baking too as my freezer supplies are getting low again!
 
Breakfast kefir then two poached eggs on low carb toast
Lunch - out and about had black coffee and a portion of hm LC coffee and walnut cake I'd taken with me from freezer.
Dinner quarter chicken that had been marinated in spices and olive oil and then cooked in air fryer and served with a salad followed by hm LC lemon cake.
 
Blood sugars still up.
Ham coleslaw and tomato
Cottage cheese tomato
Cheese and chicken.
2 coffees and tea
 
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 another carb killa bar.
Dinner: bolognese with sliced sautéed courgette with a few spots of sugar free ketchup and grated mature cheddar.

 
Today’s actual meals ( not including tasters of earlier bakes)
Brunch of toasted SRSLY bagel topped with cream cheese, wild smoked salmon and avocado.
Dinner was Barnsley chop, broccoli green beans and a few fresh broad beans. Raspberries and clotted cream to follow.

It makes me feel more "normal" to see other people eating low carb while still enjoying the occasional bread, batter, chocolate etc. All my real-life friends and family live on bread, cereal, pasta, potatoes, cakes, biscuits all day, and I feel like the odd bod (apart from my mum who is low-carb but still serves vast amounts of carbs to everyone else...)

I'd rather drool over a picture of steak than the constant stream of bubble tea, ice cream, noodles and chips that my student daughter sends!
 
Coffee and cream
Coffee and unsweetened almond milk
Corned beef
Beef
