Oh wand it could still be hormonal if that's being screwy? I stall and go up/ down all the time so I know how frustrating it is. Maybe banish the scales for the rest of the first two weeks of BC and try measuring? 
Wintersea depends on brand, the itsu stuff is high but you can get this one www.tesco.com/groceries/product/details/?id=282647229 which is only 1.7g in a 20g serve although it has rice in the ingredients so be cautious and cut it out if you start craving carbs. Personally I bung bones, Apple cider vinegar and salt iin the slow cooker and make myself 'bone broth' (which freezes well and is a fab base for sauces and soups). No sweetcorn though.
patterkiller no, not everyone gets carb flu. Ditch the peas though! Beetroot is a no. If you stick to veg under 3g/100g you can't go far wrong.
What was in the pie filling? Most pies have some sort of flour in the gravy (unless you made it yourself)
Hi mook nice to see you! Glad to hear it's going well
beyond I just booked in for a new tat too. Getting a wee tribute to my daddy with my sister. Love a new tattoo. Pictures please!
Hi pata glad to see you
hope exam went well?
margaritasbythesea my understanding is that milk has lactose which is a sugar.
Dairy is something that stalls a lot of people, even when within carb allowances. There is a theory that milk sugar effects insulin disproportionately to the actual sugar available. Some people (seemingly quite a lot) just cant tolerate it. So we limit in BC.
A splash in a cup of tea needs to be measured (I was having 50mls-70mls and don't consider my tea 'milky') times that by 4 cups a day and I was having a lot of milk sugar.
Cream has less lactose and typically you would use less (I can get away with 10ml in a cuppa)
Greek yoghurt has had most of the whey taken out (which is where the milk sugar is) plus has had a live culture eating the sugar so the theory goes that whilst there might have been 4.6g carbs per 100g in the milk that went to make the yoghurt by the time the whey is strained and the bacteria has eaten there is a fraction of that left.
You can get lower cream 1.6g/100ml or use almond milk unsweetened is really low 0.1g/100ml or if you really struggle you can get lacto free milk at around 3g/100ml.
magicalrealistmum why quorn? Are you vegetarian?
That crackling and your dinner looks lush wanheda. Got a say I love me a morrisons shop. Mmmmmmmmmmmmm and super cheap. I got pork skin and chicken livers reduced to 9p per pack today. I see paté scooped up in crackling strips in my future!
fourarmsv2 I buy them bone in and snip the bone out with scissors. Then I use them to make bone broth. I'm cheap
and love a 'freebie'
I think if you asked at the butcher counter in morrisons they'd de bone them for you?
for raised.
Hi monkey congrats on your fab loss. I have to keep my protein fairly low to keep loosing with low carb (after initial loss). I test and my blood sugar spikes if I have more than 70g a day.
As Biwi /stunt said try fat up / protein down and if you MFP have a look at the macros. I am on 5/15/80 (carb/protein/fat).
