Week 7 - Low Carb Bootcamp - Still with us?!

[BIWI]

Morning campers

Here's the SoF

From last week's thread it sounds like most people are managing to stick on track for most of the time, which is great.

We have four full weeks left, so still time to make a big difference.

Hope this week goes well.

Today I have scoffed
B - bacon avo
L - lettuce rocket spinach radish cucumber 5 cherry tomatoes chicken
D - asparagus and spinach omelette

Evening all. Mr Smug made brunch for us today so I only managed a 14 hr fast

B. Fry up - bacon, sausage, mushroom and 2 poached eggs.
D. Will be doner kebab with mayo and salad

Nearly hit the water target.

Those rolls look lovely, may have to give them a try.

B: Greek yogurt, cream and berries
L: smoked cheese and dark chocolate (not together...)
D: roast celeriac, cauliflower cheese, brocolli

Another slightly random day food wise. DD phoned from uni about 8am, really upset about something and wanting to see me, so I jumped on a train for three hours (I know, I know!). Grabbed three cooked chipolatas from the fridge as I left, and had them with her in Costa, along with a coffee and cream. On the way back, bought an individual Brie triangle and water to have on the train on the way home. Arrived home to discover DH had been called out and he'd filled the slow cooker but forgot to switch it on. I'm now eating left over salad and a tin of tuna. Water and veggies all been pathetic today :(

Wow ilove that's dedicated parenting! Hope your DD is ok now?

I recall people posting lots of egg ideas on the between boot camp threads.

Only managed 4 eggs today because I was lazy and had a long lie in as we only had "breakfast" after 12.

Not hungry though.

Had 2 fried eggs (in butter) did some bacon for dh and for supper have just had a 2 egg omelet (forgot I was going to make it a 3 egg one) with Boursin and plenty of butter.

Also had 3 teas with coconut oil instead of milk. Unfortunately, I'm now on the Lidl extra virgin coconut oil, which was the same price as the KTC coconut oil but has the disadvantage () of actually tasting of coconut

Plenty of water

Thanks to everyone who responded to my rant - it was very kind! I think you’re right BIWI that DM just takes dieting as criticism of her life/ her parenting. Just need to keep taking deep breaths and ignore the ever-increasing carb piles when I go over.

I’m a bit scared of the scales tomorrow partly due to rainbow-cake-gate but also because I know I’ve massively slacked off on the water the last few days. Must be better- I had a little tracker on the whiteboard on the fridge that I was really pleased with but the one from two days ago is still up...

Ilove that was a lovely thing to do for your DD! Despite my rant about my DM she is lovely in many ways and I remember her driving me all the way from Berkshire to York to keep me company when I was miserable about going back to uni after a break up. She literally dropped me off and turned round and went home again as she had something to do that evening - it meant so much that she was bothered to do that just to make me a bit happier even when I was supposed to be ‘grown up’. I’m sure your DD will always remember that you jumped on a train to see her as soon as you knew she needed you.

Argh, the spreadsheet has gone wrong for me this week.

My weight is registering as a text and therefore the calcs don't work in the blue cells, has anyone else got this problem? Can someone post this on the new therad later today as I will be at work with no access.
