Currently away from home so living on hotel/restaurant fare

Breakfast: eggs Benedict with Parma ham and some tea. The eggs were served on muffins but I did not have those.


Lunch: spicy pumpkin soup, again I ignored the bread rolls that came with it.



Dinner: king prawns and scallops with sautéed mushrooms and French beans



None of my two hour post prandial counts was any higher than 5,3 mmol.

B: Wholegrain oats in magic porridge as usual, with berries
L: Ah, well, I went out to lunch for the first time since I started full-on LCHF and stumbled at the first hurdle! I went for the salads and avoided the ones served with chips, but then realised that the fried brie was breadcrumbed and the cranberries were in a sauce. Anyway I ate the cheese, but Mrs DeeJay polished off the cranberry-flavoured sugar jelly.
T: cold chicken, ham & salami salad with home-made coleslaw (no carrot), lettuce & red pepper.
Which was a wise precaution since when we went next door for a fireworks party we were offered hot dogs, crisps & dips. To drink, being teetotal anyway I just had my usual coffee.
 
I'm trying to remember as far back as brekkie... Oh, yes:

Tea with cream (which I am learning to like!)
9bar
Carvery lunch (half a very small chicken, cabbage, broccoli and caulicheese. Added butter. Herb tea. No pud.
Pulled pork, green beans and broccoli, berries n cream

9bar
naked meatballs (and that means with no veg or sauce, you dirty minded people)
maybe a lc hot choc later.

a very weird day. not feeling 100%, and stressed about work tomorrow. the 1st of the month brings its own small zone of Hell to spill out of my computer screen and cover my desk.

The result? Vegetables are objectionable. Go figure.
 
Breakfast porridge pot
Lunch: slice of ham (I didn't get up til late so I didn't feel that hungry)
Tea: Beef brisket with broccoli and courgettes
Greek yoghurt with strawberries.

I did my bm 2 hours after tea and it is 7.4! I'm delighted, I think this is a first for me

I probably sound a bit thick, but wanted to ask what is magic porridge and bullet proof coffee?

I'm sorry.
Take care of yourself.
My BG is always very volatile after lack of sleep and emotional upset, so you may find the same.
Hug.

I haven't posted on this thread for a while. My meals are a bit odd these days. I blame my sudden poverty (had to replace my car) meaning I often eat the same old stuff for days on end. Plus the winter clocks - I am trying to photo my food for a blog, but as it is dark here very early, I have to cook and photo in the mornings. This explains why I had courgette spaghetti for breakfast this morning I don't want the newbies to think this is normal behaviour! I'm still lurking though x
 
Just realised why I've felt so meh this weekend!

Not enough FAT!

Been having a comparably low fat weekend - by accident, really.

Off to the fridge to rectify the situation immediately.
