Fab, the more the merrier!

Missed a couple of days, didn't have anything bad or out of the ordinary though. Waiting for payday so eating my way through the freezer!

Yesterday
B: 50g Jordan's Country Crisp and semi-skimmed milk
L: Hovis WG sandwich with laughing cow, corned beef, and salad cream. Packet of Kettle Bites, 30g salted peanuts.
D: Scrambled egg on toast with 4 M&S chipolatas. Also had some black pudding which I love, but I don't think it loves me. Still, worth the experiment. 2 scoops of Peanut Butter Cup Halo Top for dessert.

I would recommend using different nuts to cashews as they are the highest carb nut, but still, give it a try & see how you get on. The mixed nuts I use contain cashews, but not many.
 
Today
B - jumbo oats, almond milk, raspberries, knob of butter and a coffee
mid-morning - coffee
D - wholemeal sandwich with 2 slices Bavarian ham, chunk of cucumber and a bar moser roth 85%
mid-afternoon - coffee
T - thin cut beef steak, charlotte pot20180223_071401.jpg atoes, roasted sprouts and mushrooms, onion gravy and a square Lindt 90%
Currently - coffee
(sorry for the boring pic but these raspberries are absolutely lush!) :D x

Wouldn’t normally have cashews on their own Mark, but it was all I had in!
 
Today,
B: Two slices of Hovis Nimble, with veg pate and hummus on; packet of lamb and mint flavour crisps and a small apple.
L: 50g of dry roasted nuts.
D: Lots of broccoli; mushy peas; four Youngs fishcakes ( in breadcrumbs, ) and about half a dozen spicy potato wedges.
Followed by a Vegan ice cream cone.
Only spiked me to 7.1 too, so well pleased as last time I had the fishcakes I went well over ten!
