What did you eat yesterday?

[Deleted member 21371]

Sausage and tomatoes on a wholemeal roll.
Pate and lettuce on the other roll.
Pig heart chilli, no rice, but with cheese and salsa loaded nachos with a very nice sauvignon blanc.
A few biscuits and cheese later.
No snacks in between

I seem to be taking over this thread. I hope not as I like to read what others are doing. I am such a LOUD mouth. 🙄

Weight 14 6.2 Tum 49 1/2
Not long after getting up - 7.0 @ 7.30am / pint water / Nescafe
Brunch @ 11.30: can of Baxters pea and ham soup / pint water with meds / 6.2 @ 15.23
Dinner: pint water / an entire cauliflower! the whole bag of grated cheese, with cheese sauce from a packet and probably enough for at least three people / pint water

Wouldn't you think I'd be sick having all that? I was just a tad full which didn't last long and then I felt fine. No hope for me basically I'm just a greedy pig. I think I need to be taking my bg in a regular fashion to keep me accountable.

A big portion of cauliflower cheese but I am sure there are more calorific and carb laden options! Cauliflower on it's own should be fine in whatever quantity although it might have certain - ahem- "side effects" which make it less pleasant for others to be with you in an enclosed space

I prefer to eat the Nachos on the plate, but there was a monster load in the centre of the table!

I wants to eat that food! Looks substantial and satisfying. I'm soooooo hungry... Thanks for that @travellor If I knew it was heart I wouldn't eat it, but I'd eat it if I didn't know and enjoy it too, no doubt. I won't eat kidneys, heart, tongue or lambs' fries! My sister had those years ago by mistake. My auntie used to luv a pig's trotter. 😳

Brunch: 2 Bird's Eye thin beefburgers, 2 eggs scrambled with olive oil, garlics, Caeser dressing / pint water with meds
Dinner: pint water / small can Heinz tomato and basil soup / pint water / 2 hard boiled eggs

I was poorly and couldn't get out for low carb victuals even though we have a supermarket just across the road. This is where it falls down if you shop daily and only have one days worth of food in the house. I didn't want to eat anyways when feeling sick. Should there be an apostrophe after 'days'?

B: peppered mackerel with thin slice toast
L: ryvita, pate, ham, celery, red pepper, tomato half apple
D: mousaka, carrots and brocolli, yoghurt
Usual drinks quarter nature valley prot bar

I will happily eat anything apart from brains, and possibly eye balls, after growing up through the cjd era.
If we killed the animal to eat it, it only seems right that we should do to me.
(And who doesn't like a good old steak and kidney pie?)

 

[Newbie777]

B - back on 1 Burgen toast and 1 boiled egg.
L- 3 small homemade grilled lamb seekh kebabs and salad.
T- Grilled chicken salad and 1 spicy lamb chop.
Snacks- only about 22 Almonds all day.

I think I win on the most repetitive daily food eater and most boring, I can't believe what I used to eat 5 weeks ago, just the variety was great.

...If we killed the animal to eat it, it only seems right that we should do to me...

I feel the same way but draw the line at pig's ears after watching a lady on telly last night cleaning out the ear wax...

What sort of diet plan are you eating to?

 

[Ditto]

None, I don't believe in diets. They don't work. You find a way of eating that suits you and your body for life imho. I'm still working at it. Today was a bust that's for sure. 😳

My 'plan' at the moment is low carb (my idea of low carb that is), 2 meals a day at 11 and 5 or as near as possible, I have had to give up my breakfasts which could be as early as 4 in the morning! I read Breakfast Is A Dangerous Meal. I take something from every nutrition/diet programme I watch and every nutrition book I read. I also take note of everything on here as the peoples are very knowledgeable. I aim to walk daily.

 

[RirisR]

My father told me that breakfast was the best meal of the day, bacon and eggs
mushrooms are healthy - your "whole packet of cheese" will put weight on diets
like slimming world ones do work for some people and are healthy way of eating
also the diabetic meals on this site are a good balance also I am only trying to
help you it is not meant as a criticism so please don't take it badly another tip
if you shop at Iceland their web-site lists all the ingredients in their food and also
gives you the carb content., a useful tool even if you dont shop there
so if you do fancy a ready meal you can check the carbs before you buy
your doing your best so hoping your not offended xx

My other half doesn't believe in diets as his view is that a diet by implication is something people regard as having a start and an END which is often why they don't work. So it really should be a way of life, it needs two different words.

 

[Leadinglights]

How true this is I don't know, but the reason people always cut a cross in the base of sprouts before cooking was that they were regarded as being the food of the devil and you had to protect yourself.🙂

B: bacon, scrambled egg, tomato, thin slice toast
L: ryvita, pate, yellow pepper, tomato, cheese, few nuts, clementine
D: chicken thai curry, salad, apple crumble with cream
Drinks as usual, square dark hazelnut choc

Allotment visit but no walk today, but my trousers did do 30 steps in the night on the bedroom chair, how can that happen?

it isn't just Iceland, all the big supermarkets do this xx

 

[Leadinglights]

Just to get with the st David's Day theme and the Rugby success.

 

[Kaylz]

@RirisR I don't know where your comment has gone but I got an email notification and I'd love to know what you looked for on them

Asda example


Tesco example


There are very few products on online supermarkets that don't state ingredients or nutrition values, it's what I used to make my shopping list before I went shopping when I was first diagnosed in 2016 and what I've been using for online orders from Morrison's throughout the current situation so I know quite a bit about the subject

I do luv Iceland's Slimming World DeLuxe meals as they're divine. 🙂 Yesterday I was with family...it's fatal!
