I think that I must have the same GP, Cold Ethyl!
Got up to 4 a day but had to cut back to only one in the evening if I wanted to be able to go out the following day!!!
:yuck:

I only got to 3 and now I have cut myself down to 2 as I think it is making my anxiety worse. I couldn't understand why he even wanted me on 4 as I had dropped my HBa1c from 71 to 47 in 7 weeks on one tablet. I've since lost 4 st so I don;t think I need to be so medicated. Will have to fight my corner at next blood test.
 
Brunch: cheese and Quorn pepperami omelette

Snack: cream and coconut oil decaf

Dinner: chickpea curry, coconut lime cauliflower rice, minty yogurt

Pudding: Gingermen dunked in pineapple cheesecake topping. Cruel but tasty

I had planned to have rum trifle or chocolate tipsy cake on Christmas Day, but having read the new drink driving limits here, I don't think I dare :wideyed: Will stick to cheesecake....with wee men to dunk. Sort of festive.
 
Acorn squash is lower carb than butternut. I can't cope with butternut, so will grab an acorn if I ever find one :)

ETA: lower carb on google, higher carb on Waitrose. Go figure.
 
Brekky was 4 free range scrambled eggs with Kerrygold salted butter. followed by coconut oil and coffee (separately..:)).
Tea was roast chicken thigh with cajun rub drenched in olive oil and butter which was delicious.

on a side note: my 2 x 24hr fasts meant that i lost 4lbs this week. coupled with starting 1000mg metformin brought my FBG down to 5.9 from 7.5.
it is however starting to creep up again so i am going to try to incorporate the 24hr fast into my LCHF, just 2 days per week.
 
B: porridge made with unsweetened almond milk and a good dash of double cream
2 x coffee with cream
L: have a lovely pork belly in the fridge, will be having that with veggies
D: not sure, might just have a snack later

Do you mean zero food fasts or 500/600 calorie days like the 5:2 diet? I'm nosey.

Well done on your weight loss :)

He did a weird Egg Fast + Butter thing.
Sounds like a really good idea.
But it would never work for me.

The flatulent eggbound consequences would result in a rapid divorce...
