@Ditto nice to see a post from you, noticed you were AWOL again xx

I know! I've been feeling a bit crook lately and also it's been all go. I find I can only do so much now, I am fit for nothing really. 🙄 I only watch tv, read, see to Mum, try to get out in the garden (only once this year up to now) and potter about the bungalow and that's about it. If I have to go out shopping that's me for the day. Talk about a lightweight. 🙂 Yesterday Mum was 87 so sisters came round with bro, we're in a bubble, are we still allowed bubbles? I never know what's going on. I tried to keep a lid on the carbs but I'm alway horrendous when with family. In an effort to be sensible I made my sister take everything home with her so when I wanted to carry on eating later in the day I couldn't. There was absolutely nowt in and I draw the line at parrot or cat food.

It was a 25g slice of toast so 12g carb I reckon, so usually ok for me.

I actually remember yesterday so here goes.....

Breakfast:- Creamy Greek style natural yoghurt with 7 raspberries, dessert spoon of mixed seeds, half a teaspoon of cocoa power and a couple of small handfuls of Super Nutty granola. Coffee with cream.

Lunch:- Small bowl of pea and ham soup followed by a small dish of cabbage cooked in butter with salt and pepper topped with a beef goulash concoction and flakes of parmesan.

Snack:- 2 😱 packets of Gruntled salt and vinegar pork scratchings... Naughty but sooo nice and I was doing a lot of physical activity so needed the salt and the calories.

Low carb hot chocolate followed by a small glass of port and some cheese (Cornigh blue and Vintage Somerset cheddar)

Supper:- Deluxe Quarter pounder burger(no bun) with fried chestnut mushrooms and a large salad including mixed leaves 2 cherry tomatoes and cucumber, balsamic vinegar and a large dollop of full fat mayonnaise.

Chicken with tomato and mascarpone from Tom Kerridge's book "Loose Weight for Good". Served with steamed green beans - very tasty.

I take it these are Lidl's? Sorry! BUT do you remember carb value? I can make a mean burger but really lack the motivation and time xx

Yes they are Lidl Deluxe "Ultimate" Aberdeen Angus beef steak burgers. 0.4g carbs per burger (2 pack). I got them reduced. Typical orange sticker 30% Lidl reduction so £2.69 reduced to £1.88 They are whopping juicy chunky burgers and they don't shrink like many do when you cook them.

Are your Gruntled pork scratchings from Amazon?

All day I lasted out, then I 'persuaded' Mum to have the hot x buns I bought 'her' and now I've eaten 2 slathered in Anchor and feel deathly. I've had an epiphany though. I give up with losing weight, not gonna happen so what I'm gonna do is to try and keep my bg level, that's what I should be concentrating on... I need to buy more strips. The buns will have put me in double figures. Good grief, I'm scared to test. 😳 I also finished off Mum's barm, she was about to give it another go, takes her hours to eat anything, torture for me, so I said why not have a hot x bun instead so I could finish it. I'm Machiavellian when it comes to food, to my own detriment.

Just a thought have you tried hypnosis? Not tried it myself but I have heard it works for some people or should I wash my mouth out.

 

[Ditto]

I always fancied giving it a whirl! I might look into that, couldn't hurt could it. Mind you, my brother-in-law had a funny turn when he was hypnotised at Haven and made a show of himself on stage.

Wonder how much it costs? Maybe when lockdown is finished.

Where do you get low carb hot chocolate?

 

[rebrascora]

Where do you get low carb hot chocolate?

Sorry that should have read "low calorie" not low carb hot chocolate. I think it is a jar of Lidl stuff that I have had for ages. As a Type 1 I can inject insulin to cover it and it does spike my levels about 3 mmols if I don't inject some insulin. I sometimes have a mug of it to bring my levels up before bed, if I am say 4 or 5 at bedtime, to reduce the risk of an overnight hypo.

 

[adrian1der]

Tried another new recipe from the third Pinch of Nom book last night - Dijon Pork which was excellent. Slices of pork tenderloin cooked in a mustard, creamy sauce.

I wish I could cook. That sounds delicious @adrian1der 🙂

@adrian1der I am so impressed that you try all these new recipes.... and on an almost daily basis! Do you shop specifically for them or adapt them to what you have in stock?
I thing planning is my major downfall. When I feel like cooking I tend to look through the fridge and see what I have that needs using up and then cobble something together. Can't remember the last time I followed a recipe. The current meal sitting in front of me is the left over beef goulash. It is only a goulash in that it is beef in a tomato and onion and vegetable sauce which is heavily seasoned with paprika and served with cabbage because it is much lower carb than potatoes and needed using up. I may have made a proper goulash from a real recipe once many years ago but for me looking at a book and rummaging through cupboards for ingredients and weighing and measuring just makes it all so much more complicated than I can be bothered with, so I just throw a few things together that I think should be in there and add a few more that probably shouldn't but need using up. Adjust seasoning to taste and whatever results is a unique never to be repeated experience.... good or bad!... For the record this is pretty OK although I have just over seasoned this last portion with a bit too much black pepper and my mouth is tingling.... either that or I am hypoing!
