Re: Starting low carb eating again, anybody want to join me?


Welcome Smudgley, it is very easy once you know what to avoid.

Well done Donna!!!!! I just need to catch up with you now!!! lol

Popped to M&S to check out their food, got some nice low carb bits in there, prepared fresh burgers, lamb kebabs which were very good. I also got a dressed crab pot which is lovely (if you like crab) - crab meat with mayo, then chopped egg and then white crab meat on top!!! yummy!! fairly low carb as well.

Going to have liver and bacon tonight with Cauliflower mash and green beans

What are you going to have Smudgley? and Donna ?

I am not that hungry so just had some cheese and coleslaw for dinner.

Had egg/bacon breakfast and some Materson chicken bites for lunch - dunno if anyone has seen these or know what I am talking about but little handy snack bags of chicken pieces.

Yes I have seen those Donna, excellent snack!!

Chicken kebabs for me lunchtime (ran out of sausages) and a 50g bag of salted peanuts

I haven't been hungry all day today, makes a change from when I am not low carbing when all I can think of is food.

I am not even tempted. This time round I am doing so much better as well. Not yo-yo ing up and down. Just slowly going down. Think my meal planning is better second time round as I am a little bit more aware of how the diet works.

Re: Starting low carb eating again, anybody want to join me?


I think you are right Donna, I have found it far easier this time, especially when I know the key is to plan and make sure I have enough food I can eat in the fridge.

I would prefer it to do down steady and for at least the next two weeks I have got nothing that can get in the way.

Re: Starting low carb eating again, anybody want to join me?


I can't have potatoes & bread

I better start tomorrow, I was really late home from work & hubby had done me a very big Jacket potatoe.

Oh, but then I'm out for lunch tomorrow, can I start officially on Wed please?

Right now, if I can have dairy stuff, why can't I have milk in my coffee? My job involves visiting people & every house I go in, I have a coffee

What do you girls eat for tea? Give me a few ideas? I'm willing to give it a go, I'm desperate to loose a few lbs. More than a few really....
