2-3T flax mixed with lots (I use about 150 mls) soya milk. Microwave 1.5 mins - stir,
add sweetner and serve. I also add cocoa powder and a capful of vanilla and top with 1T double cream. Heavenly!

Morning all
Just making flax porridge for breakfast and courgette soup for lunch.
Had a lovely day yesterday at my Aunts surprise 90th birthday lunch. Great to see family from around the country, ate a little off plan but generally not too bad, had a bit too much wine but plenty of water for me today

 

[ladyfelsham]

Wow how fab that your aunt is 90 and still doing well

 

[shrinki]

Sounds like you had a nice time with your aunt. 90 and still having surprises!! How cool.

We are eating the same food today:
Flax porridge (I make mine chocolatey)
Courgette soup

Tonight will be baked salmon with spring onion/cheddar/mayo topping and runner beans x

Morning all
Work Christmas meal last night, prawn cocktail for starter, salmon for main and a clementine pudding for desert, which was a bit naughty but very nice. Kept off booze cos I was driving, carb wise not too bad apart from desert.
Have decided to up my carbs to approx 50g in run up to Christmas and then have a week of eating what I fancy( hopefully I will make wise choices) then back on induction after Jan 1st for a couple of weeks. Should be doable
B flax porridge

Hi

Sounds like you made good choices last night (apart from the pud LOL).

I think your Christmas plan sounds good. I think it's better to have a plan In place!

Have a good day x

Your so focused Sandra. Great choices and pud sounds lovely.

The week of having what you fancy will be fun. x

Morning all
Not feeling very well, sore throat and difficult to swallow. Need to liven myself up as having visitors for the weekend and will need to be sociable, also want to put decorations up before they arrive.
Food yesterday was:
Flax porridge
Tin salmon with salad and Mayo
Quorn hotdogs, scrambled eggs and one carb ketchup
Had a few throat lozenges so that increased my carbs. Happy Friday all

 

[coffeelover]

Sorry your feeling poorly Sandra. The sore throat thing is doing the rounds up here too.

Hope you feel better later and have a good time with your company. x

 

[moonlights]

Yummy quorn hot dogs - having some myself later.

Hope you feel better ASAP. Have some soothing veggie bouillion maybe?

 

[shrinki]

Sorry to hear you're not feeling well. Have lots of warm drinks - no cold water?

Get well soon xx

 

[ladyfelsham]

[shrinki]

Evening all, feeling much better thanks , gone a bit off the rails foodwise I'm afraid, all my good intentions have fallen by the wayside. Given myself a good pep talk and hopefully we be back on track tomorrow . Hope everyone has had a good weekend,

 

[ladyfelsham]

I'm so off the rails I'm taking up the entire siding

Here's to getting back on it tomorrow!

 

[shrinki]

How's it going Sandra?
It's been very quiet on here so think lots of people are struggling to keep on track. I am veering on and off myself..

Morning all
Well yesterday wasn't too bad, about 50g but then I went to give blood and ate the packet of biscuits afterwards, still I think I needed to eat them otherwise they don't let you leave !
Making a mim for breakfast
Courgette soup for lunch
Probably fish later, it is a bit of a struggle keeping on track at the moment, chocs, mince pies, cake everywhere at work and at home

 

[ladyfelsham]

Well done for giving blood, and hope you enjoy the soup
