I’m low carbing. Keto bread (made with eggs and coconut flour) with bacon and soft cheese for breakfast and sausage and veg with a tomatoey cheese sauce for tea. Might have some berries in a bit.
I skipped lunch because I’m actually better with 2 meals a day, works for me (I know others will say this is not a good idea).

thenewaveragebear1983 · 08/01/2019 19:49

I've got the dreaded norovirus so today I've eaten two Jacobs crackers and a quarter tin of Heinz tomato soup. Not ideal really!

My planned menu for today was: a homemade shake (almond milk, spinach, frozen berries, peanut butter powder, maca powder) and chicken thighs marinaded in full fat yogurt and tandoori spice, with baked cauliflower. I'd probably have had around 200 calories of either cheese or nuts as well, or a combination of the two.

That's what I'll now have tomorrow!
