For those of you who haven't seen celeriac, here is a quick Pic. As you can see I've used half of it already. It has to be the ugliest veggie around.

hey all - love reading this thread for ideas and see if i am on track.
here goes...
breakfast - bacon omlette with about five mushroons
lunch will be ham salad with just leaves and a bit of that cardini low carb salad dressing
tea will be steak and bit more salad today

i am on induction and this is a fairly typical day for me.
i also have 2 or 3 tick tock teas with a splash of cream and as much water as possible.
my other fav meals are sausages, bacon, eggs and maybe mushrooms or chicken wrapped in bacon with salad leaves.
does this sound ok only i am not loosing a great deal at all (2lb first week and 1 lb this week) oh and i do snack on cheese sometimes....

Hi Sarah,

Doesn't look too bad to me.

Sausages can contain a surprising amount of carbs, you'll want to check those and see if you can get the 100% Toulouse sausages from Tesco or Sainsbury's I think.

Bacon can be very salty and can lead you to retaining water.

How much veggies are you eating daily?

 

[jules75]

Maybe you aint eating enough??? Sounds crazy but strangely iv found im eating more than ever and the weight is shifting nicely!

[Jim]

Point, yes Jules, good point for Sarah there.

 

[sarah j]

thanks guys ...
i have the debbie and andrew 97% sausages for now (no breadcrumbs or rusk 2g carbs each) but will def look for those tolouse ones. saw some in waitrose but the girl serving wasnt sure what was in them.
about 3 handfuls of salad each day - size of my fist on the plate (will have to get some proper measuring cups i think!)
great point about the salt - i do have lots of ham and bacon!
feels like i am eating plenty - i am not keen on being hungry at all so will fill any gaps!!! not cheating though, as far as i know and others seem to be getting weight off a whole lot quicker....
thanks for the tips - i will keep trying and keep lurking around here!!! i understand you are on maint jim, are you too jules?

 

[Jim]

Sarah,

I just used a big coffee mug, not need to buy anything. I worked out that the American cup measure is the size of our Mugs. No surprise there I suppose.

 

[sukie sue]

day 3 already feeling jaded (as in not hungry ) but had a very rich creamy sauce day yesterday, ready for a break :0)
brekki , 2 venison sausages at 0.9 g carbs each , (not bad ) and scrambled egg and some mushrooms
lunch crab and prawn mayo with lettuce and cucumber and a little tomato , sugar free jelly,
dinner will be roasted chicken and some salad leaves ... simple !

 

[Jim]

I like the sound of them venison sausages, can you get them in tesco Sukie?

 

[woof]

Dobbins the garden center sell yummy venison sausages... They have a lovely food hall MMMmmmm
