What are we eating today?

[LVLLM]

for jessie.......looks good. You should only have 120g of cheese per day and 2 tsp of double cream really. so looks ok on that front. Ok with the diet coke, if you start stalling maybe check if it has citric acid in it cos that can cause stalls, but really dont worry about that now unless you dont lose for a couple of weeks.
make sure you measure your salad and greens etc by cups or by the packet, you should have most of your 20 g of carbs (15g of it) from your veg/salad.
Just check everything to start to look for carbs i.e. sausages - some can be really high. you will get used to checking for carbs and not cals!
protein pretty much unlimited, make sure you have plenty of fat too, so maybe cook your omelette in butter
sorry if you know all this x

Jessie, blood glucose monitors don't work like that. I'm diabetic. I use mine several times a day. You need to do the test 2 hours after eating and even then it may not be accurate for ketosis.

You too It's going terribly thanks for asking! Regained 4 of the 7 stone I lost...finally settled in a new job and now back on it. I think i'm back into ketosis and i'm hoping to crush a couple of stone quickly. I saw a picture of myself at my lowest weight the other day and I wanted to cry! 4 stone!

You got to goal? Well done that's awesome!

 

[Alpaca]

Hello James... Hard to diet while stressing about a new job! You sound like you're back on track now so the weight should melt away once you're in ketosis!

 

[Kat1e]

Hi James. Sorry to hear it's been tough. Well done for getting back on the wagon and indeed you will crush those stones

Pleased to hear you have a new job too.
Good luck and keep posting
