That sounds quite nice to meThe reactions of others are great. A couple of weeks back a new colleague exclaimed as she watched me making my morning tea: ‘you put double cream in your tea?’!!

Hope you enjoy the film, my neighbour has just come back from seeing it, her verdict was it’s very good.Quick post for me tonight, I’m off to see Mama Mia in a few mins. I’ll read and catch up later, but hope you’ve all had a good day.

@maglil55 did you use monkfruit in the chilli sauce?
I’ve been meaning to try it.
That sauce recipe just pushed me over the edge and I ordered some.
Today:
1pm the last of the Buzzard Bites (sad to see them go) and the last of the Bloodberry (even sadder). Back to strict carnivoring.
7pm a hugely over-filled lo-dough with grated cheese, egg mayo and Branston.
Dinner: coconut and lemongrass chicken stir fry, no noodles but extra beans sprouts to kid the eye! (@Goonergal don’t ask for the recipeI used a ready made sauce which happens to be LC!)
Yes. Not cheap, got it on Amazon but boy is it sweet. Did absolutely nothing to my BGs. I was taken by the fact it had been used for donkeys years in Asian countries. That and the nutionional values was enough for me (That and the fact I wanted a Thai tasting sweet chilli).@maglil55 did you use monkfruit in the chilli sauce?

Meant to add they use it loads on that site plus they are REALLY keen on Asian keto recipes. There are some cracking recipes on the site if yo7 like Asian food and usually very simple. You might find you'll need liquid aminos for some of their recipes but that's easy to get in Holland & Barrett. I have no idea what they do mind.Yes. Not cheap, got it on Amazon but boy is it sweet.

You may have noticed There's a few sauce recipes on that site.
@maglil55 did you get @ monk fruit mixed with erythritol as a granulated sweetner or a liquid extract? Just took a look on amazon and found it a bit confusing.Yes.

I got the Lakanto brands - golden and the classic. Golden is a good brown sugar substitute. Classic is just well a sugar substitute.@maglil55 did you get @ monk fruit mixed with erythritol as a granulated sweetner or a liquid extract? Just took a look on amazon and found it a bit confusing.
Thank you that’s very helpful it’s expensive without a recommendation I was also tempted by the look of the maple syrup substitute for pancakes or yoghurt etcI got the Lakanto brands - golden and the classic. Golden is a good brown sugar substitute. Classic is just well a sugar substitute.
I do have my eye on the monk fruit "maple syrup". Ricotta pancakes with blueberries and maple syrup anyone?
Thinking about it has made my decision. I'm ordering the maple syrup substitute.Thank you that’s very helpful it’s expensive without a recommendation I was also tempted by the look of the maple syrup substitute for pancakes or yoghurt etc
That post made me smile and also laugh out loud. Luckily I'm not in the middle of a long queue at the checkout in a mega supermarket! I'm at home working on the Birmingham eventHi all wonderful relaxing day treating my mum to some new clothes- she has taken some of my low carb advice to help prevent further deterioration of her kidneys - after being very anti when I first started - and has lost half a stone round her middle and is down one dress size I felt responsible so treated her! She is thrilled and she is looking better too. She still has small amounts of bread, potatoes @nd a few treats but was very very high carb and low fat and piling on weight before so good balance for her and she’s 87 and seven months so hard to make big changes. Her kidney function is still low but she seems to have stuck at this level at this last test. Dr pleased with her at med appt on Monday morning and her hbaca1 down to 42.
@Debandez at this rate she will be one of the oldest success stories! It’s never too late.
Breakfast bacon egg and mushrooms fried in lard
Lunch at m and s deli counter large seafood platter shared with mum with celebratory glass of prosseco - met up with youngest son - building up to my birthday weekend!
Dinner beef brisket - put in crockpot before left - on bed of buttered cabbage and glass red wine planning a scoop of oppo choc and mint ice cream later.
Remind me I am on a diet? Feels anything but that .........
Let us know what it’s like please xThinking about it has made my decision. I'm ordering the maple syrup substitute.
