Mine is:
1 carb ketchup (from low carb megastore)
Dash of worcestershire sauce
Dash of soya sauce (Japanese not Chinese)
Sploge of mustard
Squirt of liquid sweetener
- I've only made it a couple of times but liked it. Might add a little 5 spice powder next time. No exact quantities as I just mix it up to taste. I tried a couple of mass produced low carb BBQ sauces but this was much better.
Morning all, I never heard about the cauliflour pizza, sounds interesting, will look it up. It is really the topping that I like about pizza,the taste of tomato, cheese and oregano all melted together.
Yesterday went ok, tapas was good but toooo much wine. Also I don't think I will be having flax everyday, lots of walks in the park in the last 2 days, lol
Today
B sausage and egg
L salad with lots of protein
D chicken milanese (without the bread crumb) with goodies and spicy tomato sauce.
Today is my last day on induction, I am going to add nuts next week, so will be trying some of the receipes and also nut butter, yum.
Hope you all have a great day.

I made cauliflower bread sticks using the cauliflower pizza crust really early on (it's probably in the first few pages of my diary). It was okay but quite a fuss to do and I haven't bothered since.
The best 'pizza' I tend to have is totally crustless - I cook down a bit of marks tomato and basil sauce in a pan, then put mozzarella and toppings on and pop it under the grill. Then slide onto a plate! Toppings are definitely the best part!

ML that pizza sounds good, I might try that the next time, although I quite liked the flax base, the cauliflour base seems to take a long time, but would probably be more substantial.
Sigh.....up 2 lb today, I know it is down to the amount of wine on Thurs and then yesterday I had the bunches, due to the wine.
Owl was due to start today, but when I saw the gain I thought I would put it off for another week; but having read some diaries I see others are losing on up to 50gr, so I am going to go ahead and start owl. I will still try to get at least 15gr from induction veg.
I have not yet decided what's on the menu today, but it will include nuts in some form and lots of water.
Hope you all have a good day.

Don't worry about the little gain you know it could be due to all sorts of things - and good luck with OWL!

What recipe did you use for the crust, Stubbsey? I tried it once and it was a disaster, fell apart!
Hi all, haven't been on for a few days. I have upper carbs to 25 and added in nut butter, really enjoying it. I haven't gave nuts everyday, but I am using my carb allowance on more veg including tomato and onion.
I wint post ratios anymore as they are a bit out with the increased carbs.
B flax pizza with chorizo
L creamy courgette soup, egg and coleslaw lettuce wrap
D beef strog with cauliflower
S almond cocoa bark
Hope you are all having a great day

Menu sounds great Sammy. I'm on around 50 and still tend to lose. I use a lc pitta for my pizza base, but have made the cauliflower one and even OH loved it. Here's the recipe I use, although I didn't add the spices to the crust.

Menu looks great - I actually find nuts etc very useful in keeping to good ratios when on a higher carb level.
Hi, that cauliflour pizza receipe Lois so good, I will try that next week.
Talking to DD last night and she wants potato gratin the next time she is home, so I am thinking I will try celeriac gratin with gruyere cheese for lunch tomorrow, but I can't find out how much cream I am allowed in owl, is it still the same as induction?
If it is I will try celeriac boulangere.....has anyone tried either if these?
Carbs yesterday 22 cal 1450
Today
B sausage and egg
L salad with avocado, bacon blue cheese dressing and pean nuts
D sea bass with celeriac chips
Hope you all having a good day.

I don't think there's any specific thing about being allowed to increase your cream - but as you're allowed to increase your carbs in general I should think a bit more cream now and then as long as its under your carb allowance should be fine.

Morning....will be interesting to see how u get on with extra carbs....I've done my two week induction ....think I will move onto owl once I'm down to a stone to lose ....got another 7lb to go until that time ....sticking to 20g is pretty hard going some days ....what sort calorie intake are u having now on owl ? In still sticking to roughly 1600 which is really suiting me ...just wondered if going on owl u have noticed that u are eating more calories ?

Evening all
@ML ok have used 60 ML cream, kept within carb allowance, prob won't do it very often, it really ups the cals.
@ Alpaca, I agree with you re the nuts, I have really only used nut butter so far, I definitely would not trust myself with a bag of nuts, not too sure I would ever trust myself tbh!
@Ange when I have the nut butter I tend to reduce cream and mayo, at the moment I am mostly upping the veg, which has very little affect on the calories, pure carbs only have 4 calories per gr. so 5 gr of carbs is only 20 cals.
Good day today,but.....I am going away for the weekend, a surprise from the OH, so hopefully I will be able to stay fairly low carb. J know all the places we are going to so, tomorrow should be ok and breakfast sat and sun ok, but sat night could be a disaster.....
Weighed in this morning and I have lost last weeks 2 lb gain, taking this as weeks weigh in as I won't be able to weigh in on sat.
