Well done James, think I am going to start following your menus! I can't lose to save my life 
B - usual flax porridge and cream
S - celery soup - 2 mini cheeses
L - tuna mayo and green salad - am using Sainsbos French Mayo - very low carb (can't remember if it was 0.7 or 0.2 which is a lot less than Hellmans which I normally use) and it is quite nice - wow it is only 0.2g per 100 which is fabtastic !!!
D - got duck legs out of freezer - roasted probably - green veg which I need to pick up this afternoon, although I know I have some courgettes in fridge. oops not thawed so went to wetherspoons for dinner - bbq chicken with bacon and cheese but without the bbq sauce and with about half the chips and all the salad - one wine and one large whiskey and a black coffee for pudding
W - Usual 4 litres plus coffees
E - really should do something
A - not sure - maybe a small one

Never give up
Evening, posting and running again, sorry.
B - two fried eggs
L - 2 sl corned beef, lettuce, caesar dressing
D - two sossies, small piece of steak
Then it all went pear-shaped
S - atkins bar, another different atkins bar, another different polyol-laden bar, 50g almonds, 3 bags scratchings
A - none as once more I don't deserve it, even though OH is having some
E - 6 mile run - pretty fast too!
Maybe tomorrow I'll finally have my first glass of wine of the week - only if I stop eating crap though, have to get it through my thick skull that I can't have it all!

Thanks everyone.
Trying to switch to more natural foods with vitamins and minerals in them so for now (it will probably only last a day) i'm going to drop the pittas and Atkins shakes.
B: Carb Sense Shake (contains vitamins and minerals, although i'm sure created V+M aren't as effective), 25g Almonds
L: 2x bunless bacon double cheeseburgers from Burger King (well it is Saturday!)
D: Bacon, Eggs, Mushrooms
S: Berries/Cheese
V+M info here: meat-protein chart | Nutrient chart | Vitamins and minerals in common meats and proteins
Surprising amount in cheese! Any excuse for some cheddar.

Hey hey Saturday Club,
B: Quite large bowl of flax porridge, followed by some cheese
L: 'Big Tasty' burger (minus bread) and some chicken nuggets
D: Thai beef salad, some olives and some deep fried camembert.
W: Probably not enough
A: I think about 5 glasses of dry white wine
E: Not sure, but basically alot of walking. Maybe 5 miles?
Popped up to Edinburgh for the day yesterday. Was hungry so went in to McDs. Looked a total clip eating a burger with knife and fork! Didn't eat burger bun but chicken nuggets were battered so probably not that good. Deep fried camembert also had a breaded crust (didn't realise until it came). Salad also had alot of onion. Hoping all the walking counteracts it!

I think they use Isomalt/Maltitol syrup?

Yeah I think if there's one polyol to steer clear of it's Maltitol.
Mind, I'm no expert and I'm mostly basing it on the table at the bottom of this link:
What Are Sugar Alcohols - Blood Sugar and Sugar Alcohols
Maltitol seems to have a high GI.
That said, I had some Thorntons toffee last weekend and I don't think it stalled me. Maybe a bar or 2 won't hurt.
