Just wondering how much the cheesecake affects yours numbers ? . My favourite treat was strawberry cheesecake , but I ain't even looked at it sense diagnosis .
If I thought I could get away with it I would possibly have small portion after Sunday dinner for treat.

It is a low carb version. Base is a mix of almond flour, ground linseed, dessicated coconut & Natvia sweetener mixed with melted butter & pressed into a springform cake tin. The cheesecake itself is a basic baked recipe but replaced sugar with Natvia. And I topped it with a truffle recipe made from 85% choc, double cream & rum. If cut into 8 slices, works out around 5g carb per slice.

Oops yep there were potatoes in soup .
Must be more careful as I seem to be eating more potato than I should. I really need to try new menus as as I seem to stick to same food . I eat either chicken,fish or steak everyday and have small portion of mash with each meal ,Saying that it don't seem to spike me much 2 hours after eating .

Your figures sound pretty good to me. I very rarely eat potatoes & have replaced them with other veg that can be mashed, roasted or chipped. Turnips (the white things with a purple top) are great for chipping or roasting & cauliflower makes great mash when mixed with butter & seasoned.

B: Mackerel on burgen toast
L: Piri Piri chicken strips with a mustard mayo dip
D: Sausage & bacon burgen sarnie & 2 squares 85% choc.
Handful of peanuts before bed.

L - Chicken Salad
D - Home made Chilli Burgers, Broccoli, Sweet Potato & Turnip Mash, Leeks
 
Yesterday

Mid am, cappucino
L. Cold sausage in half a Lidl protein roll, half an apple, satsuma, 2sq 90% dark choc
Tea out at garden centre. Gluten free Choc Brownie (no particular reason for GF, it's just what they had)
D. Tuna, cannellini beans, onion, red pepper, courgette, in a white sauce with a splash of tomato purée.
 
@James 048
When I make homemade veggie soup I blend it when it's cooked - that way it makes a lovely thick soup in the absence of potatoes that would normally thicken it. Maybe not to everyone's taste but it works for me. What's left over is frozen in individual tubs or ramekins for another day or two.
