Alpaca's stream of consciousness - IS BACK ON THE WAGON!

[cokes]

Well done!!! Really chuffed for you. Great achievement. I hope you are going to reward yourself, some clothes or pampering or something x

 

[Alpaca]

Thanks so much Lisa - I know it's unbelievable when you think of it in bags of sugar!!

Hi Rach ... not sure what to do about spoiling... I feel spoilt already that I've stuck to it so far!! I have a really euphoric feeling today :bliss:

 

[Quak]

Thats really brilliant, love that feeling, and the loss!!!

 

[ladyfelsham]

Woohoo, well done Di! Your first mini target - big tick

 

[Alpaca]

Thanks Bren... Feels really good!

 

[Alpaca]

I know Susie! Such a rush! can't wait to hear about your weight loss! Enjoy kitty... She will be a great little friend

Not a great day diet wise ... have had the 'munchies' all day - so I've been grazing almost non-stop.

Now I feel bloated and sick! ha ha ... serves me right!

Although... I've not had any 'bad' food - it just feels a lot.

B = 3 thin rashers of pancetta fried with 2 mushrooms, a clove of garlic and an egg - fried in coconut oil. plus a cup of coffee with cream.
S = cup of coffee with cream plus a small wedge of cheese
L = 90g piece of poached salmon from Tescos with one bok choy, about a 1/3rd cup of celery a tbsp of mayonnaise and lime juice
D = 2 slices of belly pork, 1/3 cup of celery, 2 mushrooms a garlic fried in coconut oil and a sliver of butter. Seasoned with what I had in the herb department - thyme, rosemary, oregano and star anise

Actually, looking at what I've had, it doesn't look too bad. I think it's because i didn't have breakfast until after 10 and have finished dinner before 6 - so I've crammed a lot into a short day. Feels better when I'm up early for work and then stretch the day out longer! lol

I'm really pleased I decided to spell it out on here... otherwise, I'd be beating myself up about going off the wagon!

 

[ladyfelsham]

Sounds like a great food day to me - like the lunch, lime and coconut mmm

And anyway if it's all legal stuff, then don't worry - the cornerstone of doing well on low carb is to eat when you're hungry!

 

[Alpaca]

Thanks Susie! At least I'm now too stuffed to eat anything else today! Lol

 

[ladyfelsham]

Me too, I've been snacking on too many low carb sossies and couldn't finish my dinner

 

[Jim]

Morning Di

 

[Alpaca]

Morning Jim! I hope you're well? Enjoy the day

 

[Kat1e]

Morning Di

Sounds like you are doing really well - no beating self up allowed! Remember the idea that you are supposed to eat when hungry and start dreaming up lots of treats for yourself as you smash those mini goals
xxx

 

[Alpaca]

Thank you so much Katie! It's really hard not to do the 'beating self up' though.

I've had years of practice!

But, I know what you're saying and am working on it! xx

Afternoon hun - what's today's menu like?

 

[Alpaca]

Had an Atkins shake for beeline...

Not sure about lunch as am meeting a friend in 10mins... But hopefully protein and salad ...

How's your day going ?

Lunch... ended up having chicken and iceberg salad with mayo with a few olives - so everything legal!.

I have just been to Holland and Barratt and bought a carton of almond milk and also some golen linseeds - which I'll have to mill in the coffee grinder when I get home.

 

[ladyfelsham]

LOL snap on the lunch, I had chicken salad too.

U going to make some Mims? Try both savoury and sweet, but put lots of herbs/flavouring in the savoury one. I also made a sweet one with golden linseed which had no carb maple syrup (LCM) and lots of ginger in it, was really scrumptious

 

[Alpaca]

I'm dying to have a play with the linseeds - although I need to gen up on the recipes on the stickies. Quite fancy the cheesy mim... but perhaps a sweet one as well!
