Hello pms... the cake is the Stracciatella Cake and the recipe is in the Low Carb Recipes thread on this forum... I copied one of the other chaps on here and made it with 120gms almond flour (ground almonds); 65gms coconut flour instead of all almond flour; left out the chocolate and added the juice of half a lemon; the zest of the whole lemon, then I made 'drizzle' from Truvia and lemon juice, which I warmed till the Truvia melted, poked holes in the cake when it came out of the oven and poured the drizzle over.. lush... Trouble is, I gave it all, except two small slices to my husband to take on his trip with him... Oh, I'll have to make another one then..

Today has been a magnificent eating day.

B: huge brekkie. sausage, gegg, bacon, mushrooms and a slice of fried bread (white ). no spike.

L: unnecessary

D: huge dinner. chicken breast in butter, garlic and onion, served on a mountain of cauli cheese with chillied peppers and green beans.

I also slipped in 4 (yes, I know how to live dangerously!) Thorntons chocs as a pud. Thats the last of them. Dont want any more. now I have to try and stop people giving them to me. or, if they do, start giving them away. not likely, is it?

Great minds think alike and all that, this was my lunch at cafe (treat of a white bread fried slice, was beautiful)

Decided to try different approach this morning as I go for a cycle within 30 mins of waking, so 1/2 an avocado and a green tea 10 mins after waking, then 2k cycle

B 90 mins later was 1 egg omelette with spinach & melted blue cheese,
After cycle I was down to 7.5 so quite a happy start to day, 6.3 post

L as above

D 2 sea bass fillets & cauliflower rice, who knew it was so tasty! I love this now, wish I had tried it sooner but to me it didn't sound appetising, pudding undecided.

(It didn't take me 90 minutes to do 2k btw, that seems how it reads, it was 20 mins over field and woods and hills) lol

 

[Larissima]

B: leftover cauli cheese (fourth day and it's gone! Next time I'm freezing spare portions), chorizo slices, green olives

L: leftover Bolognese with grated cheddar; lettuce/rocket/watercress salad

D: courgetti with cream, egg and cream cheese; prosciutto slices

How's Mrs Weirdy? And you?

 

[Weird Science]

Yeah we are both good thanks due to start on Tuesday @ MV, I have been great this week, feel like I have so much energy in the mornings hence my cycling all week before work ( never done this ) and 8 weeks with no insulin has made me eat so much better!

 

[Safi]

L: Lovely salad with pine nuts, parmesan, veg bacon & red wine vinaigrette

D: Soy burger on soy/linseed with avocado, lettuce, mustard & a little tomato sauce.

I'm still trying to figure out the best exercise & best time to do it & may have hit upon it tonight. Did a 15min/7k ride on my gym bike at 1hr20min after dinner & followed it up with about 5mins resistance exercises. Had 4.6 pre-dinner & 4.2 at 2hrs then woke to a 4.7 fasting so can't be unhappy with that

Exercise after a very low carb meal seems to spike me more often than not so I'm really not sure if I should do it unless I've eaten carb amounts like I did this evening - any views on that from anyone would be appreciated.........

 

[JAY1JAY1]

Good luck for today... I hope it goes well with no hitches... You are doing so well - you should be proud of yourself... cycling before work? I wish I had the energy for that...

Thank you Susikav, all WILL be okay!!

And I don't know how I'm doing all this cycling, but it feels great being out in the early morning with nature getting a lungful of fresh air, I'm hoping that this is the energy boost from LC, according to MFP I'm averaging around 35 carbs a day but my belly isn't going down yet

 

[Charisma_1630]

Try googling. The coyo website may list stockists. We get ours from tescos ('free from' chiller )

I've recently started eating these! They're sooooo good although a little expensive. And I can't find them anywhere other than tesco!

 

[Viv0147]

Todays Breakfast = 22 carbs 2 rashers of bacon, 2 sausage, 2 eggs,mushrooms,1 fried tomato 1 slice of Oopsie bread. I used the last of my Irish sausages they were the carb villains 14 carbs for 2 I have since bought Debbie & Andrews perfect pork sausages 5 carbs for 2 sausage's we live and learn.
I find it difficult to comprehend that this fabulous diet can help me lose weight I will know when I weigh in about 4 weeks but my blood sugar is averaging about 8 so that is a definite improvement
