Hello all, well second bulletproof coffee again this morning and I must say I really enjoyed it, definitely suppressed my appetite as I didn't eat anything until 1.30 . I've abandoned sw and am back totally low carbing, tummy feels less bloated straight away, having salmon with a pesto crust later with cabbage fried in garlic butter

 

[dizzydelly]

Tea sounds good!

 

[Goldilukes]

Yum, your salmon dish sounds lovely. I've been really enjoying salmon lately with all sorts chucked on it

 

[Busybusy]

Hi Sandra good to see you doing well - menus sound good as ever. I'm curious to about the bullet coffee x.

 

[slaj]

Loving the bulletproof coffee, really fills me up and keeps me going til lunchtime. Lunch today Greek salad with feta, tea was fried cabbage with garlic and mackerel fillet.

Morning all

Damp and miserable here.
Still enjoying the bulletproof coffees although have stopped putting coconut oil in just using butter, they really do full me up until lunchtime.
Lunch today will be Greek salad with avocado, olives and feta
Later on will have salmon fillet with pesto and green veg
Snacks will be cheese and a few nuts, maybe some strawberries with clotted cream for later. Looking forward to the new series of Luther which starts tonight, love that programme

 

[Goldilukes]

Your menu sounds fab Sandra, I am thinking of dropping the co in one of mine as it can become a bit too much but the butter is just like frothy cream and filling. I can't wait for Luther and starlings
hope the weather cheers up for you ts same here

Morning all

Cheese and mushroom omelette with mayo, coffee with cream for breakfast today.
Lunch will be salmon salad, haven't decided what I will eat later on. Note to self, stay away from the big bag of Brazil nuts and almonds sitting on desk crying out to be eaten!!

 

[Goldilukes]

Lol @ the nuts Sandra your menu sounds so nice as usual. Can you not take meats or cheeses instead of nuts? Or half the bag of nuts out in to a separate sandwich bag or something? I know there will be part of you that doesn't want to do that hahah I'm the same.

Morning all

Went a bit off the rails yesterday ........3 chocolate hobnobs!!!! Why oh why did I do that, 1 lb back on this morning
B mim with cream cheese and 2 strawberries
L salmon salad
Not sure about later yet
Goldi , I tend to eat mainly fish, was vegetarian for 30 years , have just started to eat the odd bit of meat very now and again but very rarely.
Have a good day everyone, just waiting for the promised heat wave !

 

[Goldilukes]

Morning Sandra, don't beat yourself up about the hobnobs, I don't know why we do it either, wouldn't you think the body and brain would welcome the heathy changes and do everything in its power to keep you on the straight and narrow????? Just makes no sense, it becomes the enemy when trying to lose weight and get healthy..grrrr

your menu sounds gorgeous and naughty
I couldn't be a vegetarian, I wish for better ways for animals etc but I enjoy meat too much. What's your fav meat?

 

[slaj]

Morning all, not a bad day yesterday food wise until I stuffed three ginger biscuits in my gob!! I wonder if the strawberries that I have been eating are starting sugar cravings ?
Will try to keep away from the biscuits today just seem to be sabotaging all my efforts at the moment. I have been eating low carb on and off since Jan 12 with a break of three months when I started sw, weight is up and down at the moment and I am currently just over one stone less than when I first started which I suppose is better than being heavier but still rubbish!
It's 7am and the sun is shining , have a great Friday everyone

 

[Goldilukes]

Morning Sandra I too love ginger nuts but shhh don't tell anyone. You know I bet it was the strawberries that kicked the cravings back off, it's always something and maybe you are not yet ready for the fruit? I wondered that about myself too because they seem ok at the time but then the next day I'm craving all sorts, not good
being a stone lighter than when first started is brilliant and you know how this diet works, if we stick to it the weight falls off, it's just a wee bit hard at times

 

[coffeelover]

Hi Sandra, happy Friday. Still 1 stone under is great!

 

[slaj]

Thanks Goldi and Val just had a delicious meal of spicy mushrooms and prawns on a plate of buttered cabbage, wow it was delicious!
