OK I have a lot to catch up on (while my machine catches up on my laundry).
Saturday evening I was unsure what I would have for dinner.
First, can I say that Italian in Harrogate is excellent - Giannis - near the Conference Centre. I opted for Vitello Tonnata to start. The best I have ever seen in presented. It is a dish of very fìnely cut veal served with a tuna flavoured Mayonnaise type sauce. In their case the sauce was spread on the plate and the thin Slices of veal arranged like the petals of a flower on top with a small salad in the middle. It is served cold. Presentation was amazing considering there were 16 of us. Main was again veal with a mushroom /marsala sauce served with wilted spinach, green beans in truffle oil and courgette chips. Couple of glasses dry white and a couple of Bailey's. Didn't harm the BGs bed 5.6 FBG 5.2.
Sunday - everyone else leaving
B. 2 GF pork sausages, 2 bits back bacon, fried egg, mushrooms, 2 teaspoons baked beans, mushrooms , slice GF toast and 2 poached eggs - yes you did see that right. Breakfast was a bit of a disaster at the hotel - agency chef that had no idea what he was doing so breakfast turned up in bits. Some of our group ended up with 3 breakfasts! Pot black coffee.
L. Black coffee while out walking
D. 2 glasses dry white and 2 Bailey's.
Starter of a slice of black pudding with poached duck egg and a fresh tomato salsa. Served with rocket and pea shoots.
Main - rib eye with steamed cabbage, green beans and a pepper sauce.
All the walking kept the BGs in the 5's.
Monday and it's home time.
Bed 6.4 FBG 6.2 . Last hotel breakfast. Better organised today.
B. Slice GF toast, 1 fried egg, 2 bits bacon, 2 teaspoons baked beans, 2 GF sausages, mushrooms and pot of coffee.
L James Martin's Mediterranean chicken on the train. Much better for me than the wrap. Coffee
D. Was supposed to be going out but ended up with spìcy chicken wings with lettuce, tomato and a sour cream dip. 2 bits Lindt 90%.
Not so much walking due to travelling but BGs still hung about 5's /low 6's.
HypnosisWelcome back!!!!!
I don't know if I want to - its making me feel a bit tummyish after eating it and I've noticed that each time I experiment with it that I struggle to get off to sleep. Seems too much of a coincidence.
That's what I'm looking at - 1 meal a day with the exception of Sunday's (although that may be 1 'bigger' meal). Starting Monday as it is 8 weeks to the 'C' word.Fasting day again. Seriously thinking about an extended run of 1 meal a day - 5 days so far so let’s see how it goes.
No breakfast or lunch.
Dinner was home made burgers - mince, Feta cheese, tomato, onion, spinach with a side of buttered broccoli. Dessert of Oppo chocolate and hazelnut ice cream with cream.

Can't believe I ordered Advent Calendars today. It was Lego and Playmobil and I left it too late last year so not taking any chances this year.
I've had breakfast munchies since I got back @ziggy_w! Anyway , quick black coffee this morning then off to 90 mins swimming with No 1 grandson. Bed on 5.4 FBG 6.4. Currently at 5.6 post brunch and swimming.
B. Black coffee
L. Just had 1 Slice Bfree and 2 scrambled eggs with parsley.
D. Boys set the menu - Hubby made a big pot of Bolognese while I was at swimming. Boys and hubby are having spaghetti I'm having Oomi Noodles.
Brother still in hospital but doing fine. Off to get the boys rooms ready now before they arrive later for their 'sleepover'.
