Glass of water with a dash of ACV and a splash of low cal cola with chia seeds and milled mixed seeds (Lidl) mixed in. This is my fibre drink to keep my digestive system regular... I was using psyllium husk but ran out and thought I would try these milled seeds instead and seem to work fine.
Coffee with butter 😳 as I ran out of cream!... Can you tell I am in need of going shopping!! It is 3 weeks today since I hit the supermarket which is a record, even for me.

Brunch....
Curried spinach (spinach bhaji) with onions, tomatoes, garlic and spices with 2 boiled eggs.
Glass of water with a splash of flavoured water in it (Lidl elderflower and Mexican lime).
Square of dark 70% Raspberry Lidl chocolate with a spoonful of peanut butter.

Mid afternoon snack 2x bags of Gruntled salt and vinegar Pork Scratchings. Two!! Shocking I know! 😱 These things are horribly addictive but tongue gets pickled after second bag so no chance of being tempted for a third!

Evening...
A glass of rose wine and some mixed olives, sundried tomatoes and feta chunks.

A dark chocolate digestive to raise my levels to go to bed and a glass of water.
 
Today
B - same as usual
D - wholemeal sandwich with chicken tikka slices and a milky way cake bar, pint of water
mug of cafetiere coffee
T - your all thinking it's Monday so smoked basa fillet blah, blah, blah, well no!.... with grandad not being here we had a change! So few slices of Brunswick ham, healthy serving of cheese coleslaw, baby potatoes, radishes and then 2 squares Lidl's 95% chocolate, pint of water, really enjoyed the change and we'll be having it again next week 🙂 (mum and Bruce had chips)

A very early dinner from the chippy, as family called by, I can never refuse food, I can't bear the thought of hurting somebody's feelings! Didn't manage my last pint of water, if I eat too much I can't drink as well. My weight is going up not down, agh! 😳

@TinaD really impressed with your eating day. 8 carbs is very low imho, you should aim for at least 20 like on Atkins Induction. Are you trying to lose weight then? I might have missed that.

Weight 14 7.4 Tum 49 1/2
Not long after getting up - 6.8 @ 8.03am / pint water / Nescafe
Brunch @ 11ish: 2 hard boiled eggs / pint water with meds / pkt chicken slices at the bus-stop as desperate to eat...
Dinner @ 3ish: 1 chicken breast, roast veggies (mostly peppers and baby toms) / pint water / 7.7 @ 21.37
/ pint water / fried eggs with the leftover roast veggies as constantly craving and hungry because of eating nasty carbs earlier in the week... so not worth it for the angst afterwards, I always forget that in the moment.

Wednesday - A horrid craving day. :( Like every day really, but some are worse than others. My dinner was huge, far too much food for somebody trying to lose weight and be healthy, I've just put 'tons' tomatoes because I'm too ashamed to say how many I actually had! 1614867947452.png

For the first time since diagnosis last November, I broke my diet. Only a little, but, ohhh was it worth it.

Yesterday my wife asked me to cook a mixed grill, fillet steak, lambs liver, bacon, tomatoes, mushrooms cooked in butter, drained, grilled. Soooo nice, but careful, smaller portion sizes for me.

Nothing broke the diet bank bar the calories and they were only up about 150KCal.

Now back to the strict diet.
 
B. Avocado and mug of coffee
D Roast Beef 1 roast potato beans,broccoli cauliflower
T crackers with pate stick of cheese chicken fridge raiders
