What have you eaten today? (Low carb forum)

B - Bacon & Coffee with cheese
L - Turkey salad with mayo & cheese
D - Roast belly pork.
S - a naughty pint of beer.

The only problem I have with roast belly pork is this peculiar notion of having to share the crackling. It's all mine, Dammit !
 
B: Water
L: Water
D: Lamb shoulder, cauliflower cheese, broccoli, cabbage & sugar snaps. Frozen berries with double cream.

P.S. I nicked the crackling whilst you two were arguing
 
B: Habanero bbq almonds & 2 small spritz cookies (about 3 days left before they're gone!)
L: Large romaine/iceburg salad with green pepper and cauliflower
D: Red chili thai curry with shrimp, chicken, and cauliflower
Snack: mixed nuts.
 
It's harder to stick to LCHF whilst at my brother's house, woke up with a FGL of 7.9 (eek!) because I had to eat something unsuitable last night to bring my blood sugar up to a level that was safe to sleep at but I'm going to go purchase some more appropriate snacks today.

B flat white made with milk (tsk tsk I know)
S 2 sq 90% dark chocolate
L shakshuka (basically poached eggs in a spiced tomato, onion and capsicum sauce)
S pistachios
D ? we're going out so this may be fun haha
 
Yesterday I had
B: 3 savaloy sausages. Dicksons.
S: piece of a family pork and egg pie with jelly.
L: none
D: fresh mackerel and a baby bel.
S: last piece of pork and egg pie. (No more temptation) ;-)

I like shakshuka too. I don't have it too often, though. Actually, I might do it this evening.
