This is my debut on this thread so go easy on me.

B. Porridge made with Alpro, with blueberries, 4 thin slices of banana and a teaspoon of thick double cream. Yummy
2nd B (B1 was at 6.30) A slice of buttered toasted Burgen
L. Roast beef on one slice of Burgen. A homemade coconut bun made with spelt flour.
D. Delicious Cauliflower fried rice with pan fried pork steak. 1 glass of red wine with fizzy water
Gin and Low cal tonic with some Planters peanuts.

Then woke this morning to a house special 5.2. I know what that means now. Thanks to @Vince_UK
 
@Jeandp nice to see someone else having double cream in their porridge. Though it was just me.:D
 
Today
B - jumbo oats, almond milk, raspberries, knob of butter and a coffee
mid-morning - coffee
D - wholemeal tuna and cucumber sandwich and a bar mr 85%
mid-afternoon - coffee
T - lovely thick cod loin, charlotte potatoes, fine green beans and 2 squares Lindt 90%
just finished another coffee
@Mark Parrott double cream in porridge sounds like my idea of heaven but most of it would get thrown out :( also I see you talking about burgen thins, are these new? xx

Can't remember where I got them from. Had them in the freezer for ages. They are not soya & linseed like the bread, but have seeds in them. 16g carb per thin & you only need one. Quite filling. I will admit now that I've just had a Belgian Bun.:D

My Yesterdays
B –
Okra water
20gr “ala” Ditto, ground flaxseed full fat milk and Strawberries
Mid Morning –
Nowt
L –
Factory Lunch:
Tomatoes and egg, Chilli fish and cabbage, Tofu and chillies,
I did not eat the rice
However, yesterday was Sasha’s birthday. Sasha is our Russian PhD undergraduate. Two wonderful cakes arrived at the office. The picture one is Sasha with his girlfriend. I have to confess I threw caution to the wind and had a small piece of each and they were delicious. Carb and sugar level? Let it remain a mystery, ignorance is bliss now and again. I have no idea nor a care they did to me. I was just being polite. Didn’t test after eating cake, tested when home about 4 hours later reading 5.5 on the Codefree. Settle for that .
Mid Afternoon –
Nowt
D –
Smoked salmon, sardines, tomatoes, mayo, olive pate and a little soy sauce for dipping.
Chorizo pork sausage, bacon, 2 fried eggs and 2 tbs baked beans
Strawberries and cream.
Mid Evening-
Red Cheddar and a couple of toms.

Drinks -
About 2.0 litres of coffee.
Water with Lemon approx.1.0 litre.

Zero Espressos
Zero Alpro Almond
Zero Moser Roth of any kind AGAIN.

End for today.

Evening all

Wasn't too bad over the weekend but did have a few drinkies. Found a breakfast cafe in Abbey Wood where we had a lovely brekkie on Saturday but it wasn't the kind of place to ask if they had any granary bread :D. we have been to son & DIL's for tea tonight, a fancy curry but I steered away from the rice. Hope you all had a good weekend 🙂

Enough to say I can’t remember but had the keto pesto chicken with green veg and BG went from 5.1 to 7.1 after 2 hours. Fabulous. I even had a handful of mixed nuts later rather than toast or cereal. Wish I could be as good the rest of the time. ( oh had 2 squares of dark chocolate later)
Now have portion of meal plated up for tonight after work.
