Mmm I love lamb.

Lamb is awesome. Possibly my dream low-carb meal (that I plan to do for Easter):

- Lamb shoulder, slow-cooked for at least 5 hours with garlic and rosemary
- cauliflower cheese (with leek if the husband isn't partaking as he is an allium-hater except for garlic)
- roasted aubergine
- Savoy cabbage sautéed in butter and a bit of sesame oil.
 
B: mushroom, leek omelette and some ham

L: chicken Milanese with rocket salad (was out for lunch and coped ok with the breadcrumb coating)

S: lidl chillies stuffed with cream cheese

D: will be lamb curry, bit of dhal- no bread or rice
 
B - peanut 9bar and sugar free jelly with cream lol
L - Mediterranean salad with chicken and a little cheese
D - salmon cooked with a little oll, lemon and garlic served with broccoli
S - pork scratchings
 
B: coffee with cream. I was in a rush so I didn't have anything to eat until I got to work. I have discovered smoked cooked bacon rashers which are sold in the Co-op. They are lovely as a snack, tho I had them for breakfast, and they are totally carb free!
L: Bit naughty as I succumbed to chicken curry and rice. I haven't had rice for months so I was a bit nervous. I don't know if it was a psychological effect but I felt slightly nauseous afterwards, and I felt very tired in the afternoon. I also felt very guilty for indulging myself :-( and I've told my colleagues not to let me do it again. Surprisingly, my bg was only 7.4 two hours afterwards.
D: still felt quite full from lunchtime and actually dozed off when I got home :rolleyes: just had some yoghurt berries cream and oats.
 
B: 3 good sausages (I'm getting tired of typing '97% meat' so from here on in, they'll be 'good' )
S: 2 'good' chocolate squares ;)!
L: hummus, taramasalata, dipped with broccoli bits, baby carrots, baby corn and green beans. Olives. Yum
S: 9bar
D: chicken, courgettes and peppers in a pataks biriani paste and cream sauce.

Stuffed :happy:

Edited to add: and a coffee with cream, and an onion bhaji. Which I had forgotten, despite them both being delicious. :happy:

Apple cider vinegar, warm water and manuka honey is brilliant for infections - it is so soothing when you're poorly... It helps with sinus problems too... I have cinnamon and turmeric every day in my smoothies - I'm hoping it will help me with my BG... My bother swears he's lost his foggy brain and the pain from his feet since he's been taking them.. :)

Great way to reduce my carb intake at breakfast. I was taking in 15g-17g per slice which was a waste of my daily allowance. Need to get some tomorrow. I'll have to explore the Livlife range.

Breakfast poached egg, rasher bacon, tin of mushrooms
Lunch cheese, celery, carrot, lettuce , tbsp coleslaw and some chicken tikka slices
dinner belly pork done in slow cooker with cyder vinegar and onions and sage, few carrots, peas, broccoli, roast swede.
