My personal low carb food diary

Hope it's ok if I keep a low carb food diary here?

Anyone wanting to comment on my meals, please feel free. I don't want the pressure of joining bootcamp, just want to try and watch what I eat.

Yesterday I had

Breakfast - 3 scrambled eggs with butter, 1 black decaff instant coffee
Lunch - a pack of tikka chicken pieces and a small salad with a little caesar dressing
Dinner - fried beef medaillons with a little peppercorn and cream sauce, green beans with butter, roasted veg (cherry tomatoes, red peppers, onions in olive oil) and some fried mushrooms.
Snack - a knob of butter with marmite!

I had about 5 black decaff instant coffees, one with a spot of cream after dinner and drank about 1.5 litres of water on top of that.

I didn't have a chance to exercise due to working long hours (sitting at my desk).

That's the oddest snack I've ever heard of! Grin

Theoldcauliflower · 14/08/2015 01:28

Haha love the snack, would that normally be on a lovely white crust of bread?? Grin

kazzawazzawo0 · 14/08/2015 01:48

Can I ask how much you have to lose? I'm about a stone over weight but there is seriously no point me starting till kids go back to school and I'm back in a routine.

kazzawazzawo0 · 15/08/2015 04:02

I need to lose about 1.5 stone I think.

At the moment I'm doing well. Today I wore some jeans I haven't worn for over a year because they were too tight. I've lost a couple of inches round my waist I think.

I need to lose more, I'm going to a wedding and need to fit into a dress I want to wear.

I'm lying down to do my jeans up at the momentBlush

kazzawazzawo0 · 15/08/2015 19:48

mine are still tight too - but better than they were.

Today I had 4 x eggs scrambled for breakfast, a couple of chips and a mouthful of cake and a - very sweet - iced coffee for lunch, dinner will be steak with fried mushrooms, salad and stilton sauce.

To drink I've had half a pint of lager, lots of black decaf, a small cappuccino and a litre of water so far.
