Morning campers! Bri, on the meat counter they had gammon joints in vacuum sealed bags with labels - it was on the label. We normally shop at Aldi and theirs was the same, all the pre packed bacon I've seen has the same too! I'm sure an un packaged joint from a butchers would be fine. I asked the butcher at the farm shop and he confirmed there was nothing added to theirs.
Honey - good luck with your first day.
Interestingly I had lasagne, salad, some homemade potato salad and a chocolate cupcake last night at friends house and this morning have stayed the same. If I'd eaten that on my old diet I'd be 5lb heavier this morning. So that's a good sign that this diet is going to work in the long term. I have to say I feel so much better in myself for eating unprocessed natural foods, I think my body is thanking me for it. Sleeping better, nails and hair are growing like mad, have more energy and none of the bloating I used to get after eating carbs. Plus I am really enjoying my meals and not hungry at all.
Have a great weekend.
