Week 8 - Low Carb Bootcamp - only two more weeks ... **Thread title edited by MNHQ**

[BIWI]

Morning all. Sorry for lateness of the thread.

Here's the spreadsheet

As the title says, only two more weeks left! But that still means there's time to shed a couple more pesky pounds.

Hope you all have a good week

ohhhhh all you with your NSVs are tempting me to try on the area of my wardrobe I haven't looked at for 3 years. Not sure if i'm ready. I think i'll be disappointed if I don't fit them yet. I may wait till I've lost a stone.

Haha ShagMe I meant I don't want to be one of those folks who are incoherent after a sniff of alcohol

Ah, I understand Brassica. Wouldn’t want to see you incoherent yes I would.

Strikethrough RESULT. Ha!

@MrsKoala I'm not brave enough to try the lk Bennett dress yet

I totally get what posters are saying about it not breaking the habit of bread, in Whole30, its called "sex with your pants on"! I just felt I needed something to ease myself back in to woe after my woe-ful break

Today's menu
Mixed berries, greek yog, pecans
Courgette soup, lc roll, cheese
Dinner

Attached the bread of controversy

@ShagMeRiggins

Anyone care to choose me lunch? (all day)
unioncafe.ie/churchtown/menus/

If anyone uses the bare naked noodles how do you keep half a packet? A whole one is too much and I thought I could keep half in some water in the fridge for tomorrow? Or is that daft?

I think that would work. To be honest, I usually cook it all, and then save the other half for another meal. Or sometimes I eat the whole lot

@Aandl
I’d have the rotisserie chicken( no gravy ) with the seasonal greens and butter
But I don’t like red meat , so... I may not be the best at choosing

@AandL

Starters - chicken wings (but check they aren't battered/breaded first), or the antipasti board, without the bread.

Salads - Classic Caesar (without the croutons), grilled tender stem broccoli, with chicken or halloumi

Most of the mains look OK, with greens and/or a salad (be careful of the apple glaze and balsamic dressing)

and obviously swerve the desserts! (although you could have a cheeseboard without the crackers)

Oh that menu looks lovely. I'd have mussels to start then either the seabass or the steak with buttered greens and cheese for pudding.

Thanks BIWI. I am cooking a laksa so thought it might go mushy if I leave it for tomorrow too. But I suppose if it's sitting in cold water I could sit it in cold laksa. Does it reheat okay or go to mush?

I don't think those noodles will go mushy - given that they are sold in liquid, I can't see how they would.

@AandL

Ooh, I'll have the broccoli, tomato, almond and rocket salad with chicken please.

I fecking love that menu, AandL. All restaurants should offer that menu. My home should be that menu. [wishful thinking emoji]

You'll all to come to Dublin for a LC meet up so!@ShagMeRiggins

I'm free this weekend.
(and all other weekends)

I'd probably nosedive into the pizza and be shamed.

We should so do a meet up. If only we all lived in a reasonably close proximity to each other!!!

Meet up would be so cool as I’m probably boring everyone singing the praises of low carb
I’m really lucky my boss is doing Keto as well and has lost 20lb so he’s very keen

@BIWI
Never meet your heroes.
For all we know, you're actually Barry- a 25-stone trucker from Cleckheaton

Haha@nowlook!! If Barry, the 25 st tucker were real, I'd certainly not be poking him!

I'm West Midlands, where is everyone else from?

@Dia12
East Midlands here!

@nowlook You've been checking me out, haven't you?!
