2 boiled eggs for breakfast then off in a foraging course which was brilliant. She’d made us a picnic lunch, the wild garlic whipped feta was heavenly, and the frittata made with herbs and oxeye daisies looked wonderful - I had a tiny slice and discretely left potatoes.
Dinner was steak and salad.

Breakfast 2 boiled eggs then off to work.
Took a packed lunch of low carb roll filled with a slice of beef and cheddar. A Lille bit of Montezuma’s AB and 4 walnuts.
Forgot to get anything out of the freezer for dinner so popped into the Coop on my way home and made a meal from some yellow sticker bargains: chicken thighs ( airfried, rubbed with olive oil and spices) aubergine and courgettes, also airfried, and a salad of avocado and cherry toms drizzled with posh olive oil. H/m mayo. 2 glasses Malbec as it’s Friday.

Hypocrisy, mornings
Nothing yet

Going to see if extending my overnight fast produces lower BG readings as it unexpectedly did yesterday when I didn't eat due to stress and a kitchen in chaos!

Eventually planning to have

A scotch egg

Greek salad

Gammon shank with mushrooms and savoy cabbage (currently in slow cooker)

Spicy food which is too hot. Nasty people who have no idea on your life journey but feel the need to comment and be cruel.
Coffee and cream x 2
Coffee and unsweetened almond milk
Chicken and orange pepper
Cheese too much again!
Ham and Red Pepper

Lunch my new LC rolls arrived so had one filled with a tin of mackerel fillets in olive oil, some horseradish and kimchi followed by a couple of strawberries with yoghurt
Had fun this afternoon using low carb panda flour to make some LC mini naans - used my new cast iron tortilla press and made 10 so extras for freezer as well as for tonight's curry
