After some help from a lovely member in here I think its all going well atm, i did overkill with the wrapping of lettuce I was starting to worry staff and they thought i was a secret bunny rabbit lol.

So started using burgen bread and overloading it with salad stuff but with some nice fillings including home made mayo and chicken and i even tryed this south african meat billatong or something its called not to sure but it tasted nice.
Im not just implementing low carbs into lunch im trying to include tea also.

Wow Steff, haven't you done well?
So pleased your numbers reflect all the hard work you have put into sorting out your lunch.

Steff, Have you tried Greek salad with shredded lettuce, tomatoes, cucumber, black olives, feta cheese tossed in some olive oil. I try and have something like this each lunch time and my numbers are always in the 6's and 7's after lunch.

I can't get Burgen or Vogel over here but have found a supermarket which stocks low carb brown bread 22carbs per 100gr and it's really tasty.

Good luck with the lunches.

Donna 🙂
