What have you eaten today? (Low carb forum)

Ended up doing a 24 hour fast. Having skipped dinner last night due to not being hungry, I expected to wake up hungry, but didn't so skipped breakfast as normal. Liver didn't like it at all. Woke on 5.3, up to 6.7 about 3 hours later and even before lunch was still at 5.6. Did come down to 5.1 after lunch though.

Breakfast - skipped

Lunch - Nando's. Plain half chicken with salad

One hours walking football. Those of you with an interest in football will know from my username that I'm an Arsenal fan. Well, we got to play on the Emirates pitch today - so exciting!

Dinner - salami and cheese; 2 squares 90%
 
My alarm didn't go off so I've just woken up!! 10 hours sleep!!!!

Breakfast: two boiled eggs, buttered Lidl protein roll soldiers

Lunch: 4 walnuts, 4 brazil nuts and (probably) two squares of 90%

Dinner: Cold Fat Head Pizza and salad
 
B- 2x boiled egg and chicken breast

L - sat on Bournemouth beach having picnic . For me a 5 bean salad with chicken, onion, tomatoes, cucumber,walnuts, almonds and jalapeño

D- BBQ so burgers and sausages and and salad ( maybe a low gi roll)
 
Cheese omelette and mushrooms

Massimo Costa Americano over ice with cream plus 7 pecans - sitting in the sun in the gardens in the town centre

Indian crackslaw

Probably going to crack open a bottle of red in celebration of no work for a fortnight :-)
 
Just had a proper blow out

D= low gi roll (85gram), 2xburger, 2x lamb kebab 2x pork belly strips, 2x Edam cheese slice plus salad and fried mushrooms

Indian crackslaw sounds interesting ?

Red wine also . I am a newbie to the rouge but since I heard it reduces cholesterol and also seems to slow down the whole BS thing and goes well with steak I am a massive convert

What are posh puppies?

You get them in M&S. Part of the summer range. They have the Posh Dogs (fancy sausages for the BBQ) Posh Puppies are the little ones. The boys love them but carb wise you can easily eat 2 of them. Carb wise the Posh Puppies with cornish cove cheddar and bacon is the best but there are loads of flavours. They are also a good size for the Fathead sausage rolls in that 25 best of Fathead link I found. Really tasty.
 
OK Oomi Noodles - I am delighted to say that is the most pasta like non pasta I have ever had. Got them in Tesco and you get 2 portions. 1 portion is 7g of carbs. I made an Oomi Carbonara.
Fried off some panchetta and a couple of chestnut mushrooms in olive oil. Added a pack of Oomi Noodles and stir fried to loosen them up (dropped the heat a bit). Then added about a dessert spoon of Philly , dash of double cream and couple of tablespoons of parmesan. Plenty of black pepper. REALLY tasted good.
Noodles are made with fish protein but there is no smell and no taste of fish. Can really recommend them.
PS Portion was big enough for me. Males may need something alongside it.
