Day 2 on the low carb/ high fat diet
I have just eaten 3 rashers of bacon grilled with half a tomato
2 fried eggs cooked in olive oil and some mushrooms fried in butter.
1 mug of coffee with full fat milk.
If you enjoy it, I believe cream is better though... no carbs...
 
You have all been amazing i am so glad i joined this forum. Because i was at my wits end. x
 
Tea with cream? Hmmm ...

I eat cream out of the pot by the spoon - in fact I recently found I can eat small slivers of butter. Not sure about cream in tea though. I salute you tho!
 
Breakfast boiled egg spelt toast
Lunch chorizo and pepper frittata and coleslaw
Snack decaff espresso with cream 1sq dark chocolate
Dinner a fridge clear out salad looks to be in offing so spicy chicken slices, some corned beef, coleslaw and what appears to be a celery mountain with salad stuff.
 
Thank you I might give this a go at the weekend
 
B - mini salami crustless quiche
L - bbq chicken and salad
S - tablespoon of walnuts
D - oven cooked salmon and broccoli followed by blackberries and strawberries and clotted cream
 
I had the salmon teryaki tonight. It was delicious.
Also the spicy chickpea salad, very good and filling.
Supposed to be having a few strawberries and Greek yogurt
for afters. But I'm still to full!

I've switched to tea with cream. Bit bizarre to get used to, but black tea stains my teeth, and the milk was making me yawn (must be the whey).

Needs must.
 
Exactly! Do you use Brown or golden linseed for the micro muffin? Mine was really greasy; mayb I used too much?
 
That's great you're feeling so good so soon. We'll done . What's teriyaki?

I really enjoyed it . Planning on topping my next one with lots of cheese or maybe some feta cheese and tuna or butternut squash.......or butter fried tomatoes....can't you tell I've been shopping
 
Has anyone tried using granulated sweetener to make meringue? Be good if it works...meringues sandwiched together with cream. Had a microwave recipe that used icing sugar - maybe I could put the sweetener in my grinder make it like icing sugar.....

What a good idea. I hope someone has tried it and can tell us if it works or not
 
Today: Usual mixed cereals brekky with soya milk - took me from 5.4 to 7.6 ....weird, never does that usually abt 0.5 up
Dinner: 2 egg scramble, ton of grated cheese, 2 buttered ryvita .....that's better down to 4.3 2.5 hrs post (forget what pre was)
Tea: Lancashire hotpot, cabbage, pickled red cabbage....didn't test pre but post 2.5 hrs 6.6.....I'll defo take that, tested again but going down. Just realised I pigged out and followed tea by full bar of sugar free mint choc.......numbers even better considering that......
Snack, ERM leftover jelly with oranges to make room in fridge for the shopping and cold cabbage after tea
Soya latte at bedtime.......
 
Hi everyone , I've been trying really hard to stay on track . Had quite a bit of stress in my life since December for various reasons that I won't bore you with . Anyway things are settling down and I need to get back on track , sooooo glad I've read your posts and got some real inspiration again . Going to try some of your good ideas. Waiting for my testing strips to arrive from Amazon.

The other thing is me and my husband are going Greek island hopping in the summer , any tips on availability of low carb food and can I get diet lemonade or diluting juice ? I hate diet coke
