Low carbers! What have you eaten today?

[SouthernComforts]

I've had:

Breakfast - 2 bacon + 2 eggs scrambled

Lunch - prawn salad with real mayo

Snack- some crumbly cheese

Tea - will be chicken tikka masala

Not brilliant or exiting but I'm going shopping tomorrow and thought we might be able to inspire each other..

I've gone from 3 slices of toast for breakfast, 2 sandwiches and crisps for lunch (and chocolate) and then cooking 500g bag of pasta for 2 adults and a child (with a child who doesn't like pasta!) or takeaways. And then a big bag of crisps for a snack in the evening.

No wonder I ended up too heavy for the Wii to weigh me

I've had crustless quiche made with spinach, mushroom, bacon and cheese for breakfast - I make one on a Sunday and cut it into slices to have for breakfast through the week.

Snack was celery and cheese.

Lunch was salad with mackerel and avocado mixed with mayo.

Afternoon snack was a few berries with Co-Yo.

Dinner was leftover chicken curry with cauliflower rice.

I've had a square of dark chocolate and may have another later.

Breakfast - white coffee and a fag….

Lunch - poached salmon, 1 boiled egg, cucumber, rocket and some red onion with olive oil

Dinner will be chicken thighs, with left over slow-roat pork belly from yesterday, avocado and low carb coleslaw.

And more fizzy water!

I might have a 10 cal jelly for puts - my nails had better benefit from my new jelly habit!

Hopefully today was bob on ....

l - salami and feta with roasted onion, courgette, aubergine, mushrooms, green peppers plus salad leaves and mayo.

Mini wrap with humous and lettuce

Have struggled today, not because I'm hungry but because my weight loss seems to have stalled and I'm losing motivation, wondering if it's all worth it

Breakfast - half grapefruit and greet yogurt

Lunch - chicken, lettuce, olives, feta cheese, apple

Dinner - salmon, Doritos and humous

Celeriac!! It is effing delicious! Had it mashed with butter… Yumingtons!

Hello carb avoiders!

What is celeriac boarding? How do you prepare/cook it?

Well this weekend was better than last. My cheat meal on Friday was 8oz rump steak from aldi (really recommend it) with peppercorn sauce and sweet potato chips. I ate those chips like they were my last ever meal

Today was bacon omlette for lunch, tuna salad for tea. I just finished off the tuna with mayo and I'm gonna eat some cottage cheese and a 10 cal jelly now.

I've switched to silver spoon sweetner granules in my coffee too.

Hi Southern

Check out Celeriac info here www.bbcgoodfood.com/glossary/celeriac

Some recipes recommend boiling it in milk - I use water as milk has too many carbs!

You can make chips with it too!

BTW Why REALLY sabotage yourself with sweet potato chips????!!!! If you have a "cheat day" you set yourself back more than one day - you are not cheating the diet, you are cheating yourself! Eat your protein, eat your fat, eat green veg - the leafier the better. You will not feel hungry or that you are going without - because you are not!

I just checked back on my fitness pal.. thatday I had just over 1000 calories, and 26g of carbs (1 medium sweet potato)

Hardly sabotage

Sorry Southern - I was speaking to you as I speak to myself! For me, that 26 grams is 25% carb than I consume in a day… but I am really sticking to this. Not for everyone, but for me the results are worth it.

meant 25% more carb than I consume in one day

Today was Chicken Caesar salad for lunch

Dinner was left over cold slow roast belly pork with raw baby spinach, a little grated strung cheddar, half an avocado and 4 slices of salami

Desert was a Pilates class!
