The weather has been dreadful here today most of the day has been dark and wet!Evening everyone
Got to Cornwall finally - the last hour in torrential rain - par for the course here. Mr C had cleaned and polished and everything looked lovely so nothing for me to complain about. We popped to the local for a couple of Gin&sodas ( thanks so much @shelley262 for this recommendation I much prefer it to g&t now)
Then he cooked massive steaks he’d got from the brilliant local butcher. Served with fried mushrooms and a handful of leaves. Really nice steak from the butcher’s own herd. I’ll probably see a rise in fbg tomorrow because of the amount of protein, but it will be worth it. Glass of red with it too - perfick!
Earlier in the day - DD breakfast sandwich when I first got up.
A couple of coffees with cream on the journey and an Adonis bar.
@jayney27 I waved to you around 2:30. Congrats on imminent nannyhood again.
@ianpspurs I hope you feel better tomorrow, maybe eating a bit more would help? You don’t seem to be having much.
@ziggy_w kudos for your fab breakfast. Hope things calm down a bit at work for you.
A trying day at work, someone who manages to push my buttons did just that and then some today, it takes a lot to wind me up but they seem to manage it without much trying, the worst of it is we need to spend 3 days away from home together for work, to day I’m dreading the drive from Devon to Leeds is an understatement.
Anyway that aside foodwise I’ve been a good girl
Coffee with cream on waking
B homemade granola with almond milk and a splash of cream
L slices of roast pork, cheese and some baby tomatoes, I intended to only have half of the M&S pot of creamy cheese but somehow managed to devour the whole thing, oops
Almond milk cappuccino and half a PhD bar when I got in from work
D lovely piece of cod, sprouts, kale and bacon pieces
Evening all. On train on the way home from Manchester. Afternoon meeting was cancelled but changing train was too expensive so took the opportunity for some retail therapy. @DJC3 three separate branches of Hotel Chocolat had no tea. And I managed to get out of all 3 without buying any chocolate!

Thank you for the hug, it was one of those days, just consoled myself with jelly and cream lolHug for the day at work, winner for the food!
Pleased you got back safe hate long motorway journeys especially if it’s raining! Sounds like you had lovely treats to come back to though.Evening everyone

Glad you arrived safe and sound to a spick and span house. As far as I can tell this WOE is all about not eating much.@ianpspurs I hope you feel better tomorrow, maybe eating a bit more would help? You don’t seem to be having much.

Mid afternoon: peach chia pudding and black coffee.

No, I make it with peach flavour no added sugar Benecol drink, kill two birds with one stone. A dose of plant sterols and seeds in one hit!How do you get the peach flavour? Is it fresh or timmed peaches or essence?
Fasting is very obviously a bonza weight loss tool. As an article I read asked about something else, you can but should you? It is certainly by far the easiest way to deal with bg control for me personally but I want to limit it to the Ember days. Recent food intake has been inconsistent due to family disruption, not planned. I feel a a bit like all I have done over the 3 years is a "cheap market knock off" of the real deal in bg control, exercise, body composition and wellness. None of it actually stands up to detailed scrutiny. Feels too much like I am using an off the shelf package when I really want something much more bespoke. Take care.It’s a difficult course to chart isn’t it?
I was hungry all week doing the 30hr fasts, it worked brilliantly for bringing down bgs but I found out this morning that I’ve lost 2.5 Kg. Doesn’t matter as a one off but don’t want to keep losing weight.
I’m sure there are individual tweaks we can make - it’s just finding what works. Being hungry makes me grumpy so for the sake of my family I’ll probably limit fast type days to 2 a week from now on.
