Oh honey big hugs re the scan, sorry to hear you're having trouble with your jaw!
Did you get to have the steak stones (whatever they are)? And maybe try doing a low carb 5:2 approach if you want to up your carbs a bit?

Ouch. It's pancake day in France tomorrow so I thought I'd have a go. 5 : 2 requires that old willpower thing unfortunately, unlike our beloved low carb (speaking for myself perhaps here but am feeling pretty angelic having sat next to and easily refused choc and biscuits when visiting a neighbour earlier).
Salmond and cauliflower for dinner. You?

Looks lovely!
5:2 (the original) is where you eat normally for 5 days and 500 cals per day for two days, and they suggest you keep the carbs under 50g on those two days - The Fast Diet » the secret of 5:2 intermittent fasting: lose weight, stay healthy, live longer
Here's another interesting page on it - http://www.marieclaire.co.uk/blogs/542291/5-2-diet-recipes-what-can-you-eat-on-the-fasting-days.html
My head isn't in the no carb fly zone so I might give it a go next week xxx

I tried 5:2 before Atkins but I couldn't manage it. I just don't have the willpower needed.
i did look into carb cycling a while ago which looked very interesting and a lot of people seemed to have good results on that.

Dinner looks great! I did the every other day (JUDDD) instead of 5:2 and the first week was hellish but after that really good.

Hi Vicky
I mentioned on another post that low carb is really a fat loss diet not weight loss. So if you are exercising then i bet you are transforming your body really nicely from the inside, which will show up on the outside whatever the scales show!
Also you asked about chorizo rapido recipe - it was on the original recipe thread but i also have on my website of recipes which i think is in my signature. Shout if you need it
