Finally feel I've earnt my LCHF stripes tonight .... had cauliflower mash :) ok, I bought it from Waitrose (good to see it in supermarkets though?) mmmm. Not sure - pretty cauli tasting. Thinking it would be nicer if I made it. But under 25g of carbs today so hunk that is good?

But boy is this so so hard at times!

B: Homemade LCHF bircher style muesli with almond milk; small cup of coffee with cream.

300 mile round trip to family funeral, followed by

L: family lunch in restaurant of tomato and basil soup with crusty french bread (left the bread)
Roast chicken, pigs in blankets, roast pots, Yorkshire pudding, brussel sprouts, sliced carrots (left the pots)

Passed on the dessert course which was a choice of apple pie or strawberry cheesecake.

S: Starbucks drive-thru Americano with pouring cream on drive home.

D: None

Feeling quite virtuous considering I had no control over the lunch menu which was pre-chosen for us

The cauliflower mash you make yourself - with cream cheese, garlic and Parmesan - is really, really good.
