Triage is at GOAAALLLLL!!!!

I'm with you completely in the cereal for brekkie thing, Jo, I could never get used to hot savoury stuff and would crave museli or something like that after a few days. Now, on my non Atkins woe, I have spelt cereal with some soya yoghurt and fruit

Those strawbs look lush!

They were extremely nice!!!

I had smoked salmon and scrambly eggs for lunch and I've just got back from an hour and a half at the gym before they shut!

Now having a coffee with cream whilst catching up with OH laying on the bed as he's on nights

Bought a lush book in TK Maxx today, I've wanted it for ages, it's by Tessa Kiros and she writes really beautiful cookery books...they alway look lush on my dresser in the kitchen!

I've got Falling Cloudberries and Apples for jam but today managed to find Foods from many Greek kitchens, I refused to pay £25.00 for it but got two of them today for £7.00 each...Greek is my favourite food as I grew up in Cyprus...

The other is for my mum, she's doing Easter lunch tomorrow for all the family and is also an avid cook and lover of Greek food! So I thought it'd be a nice gift.

Shower time shortly and then foraging for tea I think!!!

Just love Greek food, is there a recipe for low carb moussaka ?

 

[triage999]

I love moussaka....! I'm sure there are loads of low carb versions, I will find it in my book and attempt to tweak and report back

Stuffed vine leaves are my favourite! Although they contain rice so a definite no!

It's where I also get my octopus fetish lol

13th Aug near Bodrum, can't wait either!

 

[triage999]

We shall stay on the wagon!!! All that swimming/walking in the heat and Atkins friendly food should be a breeze....!

Then there's the alcohol lol...! Thankfully I made myself mega ill on Ouzo years ago so I shan't be touching that!

Have you been to olu deniz before? A work colleague has been several times and absolutely loves it there

 

[ladyfelsham]

What about replacing the rice in the vine leaves with cauli rice?

Just looked up the Tessa Kiros books on Amazon, Jo - they sound fab!

 

[slaj]

Good idea Susie, got to be worth a try

 

[triage999]

I love Tessa Kiros and her books are fab! And yes, Cauli rice is a possibility!!

We were meant to go last year but our holiday got cancelled due to the airline going bust, so no, but everyone we know goes every year now, they wouldn't think about anywhere else....

Oludeniz got the Daily Mail Number 1 holiday destination this year too...

Saved....!!!!! Went to snaffle a glass of vino to go with my Greek lamb chops and feta salad but OH has drunk both bottles whilst I've been at work this week!!

There was a bit of a domestic due to this however!!

But now I can polish my halo!

I make the cheeseburger pie a bit moussaka like - does not take a lot of tweaks really, a bit of yog in the topping, some nutmeg in the mince and aubergine in the mix........does not add too many carbs when you think how much it makes xxx

 

[triage999]

Morning and Happy Easter to all....

Yum!!! Will deffo have to look into the moussaka thing! I love moussaka!

I'm now wide awake at 4am.....after dreaming about a murder! Awesome....

Now I can't get back to sleep

Morning all.....1lb up this morning...and I've stayed clean and green 100% and gone to the damn gym, so, so frustrated with this one up, one down Malarky!!

I can only put it down to 3 days worth of food including flax porridge and no bathroom activity!
Which is surprising considering flax is one of the most fibrous food groups! But I'm not touching Epsom salts again!!

I'm feeling so bunged up and bloated!

So 10.7 this morning I should have just stuffed myself with chocolate eggs n hot x buns at least I would have justified the gain!
