Re: Dieting/Low Carbs


lol

Tesco Finest pork and stilton sausage
Tesco Finest Pork & Herb sausages are 1.9g each

I have been told that a lot of Tescos finest sausages are fairly low carb, but you would need to check the label to be 100% sure, I think finding a sausage of say 8g or less per 100g

Re: Dieting/Low Carbs


As I thought sausages were meat I never thought to check the carb levels. Will let the kids eat the ones I have in the freezer and when I go to Tescos next week I will have a good rummage in the sausages to get better ones! Will look out for the ones you mentioned Emma. Thanks for looking for me. Where do you find the info like that??

Re: Dieting/Low Carbs


Donna I had a look at the Tescos website, although they did not have the carb levels listed, but I have eaten their sausages before and remembered that they are not too bad.

I also searched "tescos sausages" on the lowcarbfriends.com forums and a lot of people were recommending the finest ones as they are low carb (ish), that place is an amazing resource for info, and although it is US based there are a lot of us UKers on there

Used to have them when my mum cooked them, but have never had them since!!! Cant remember even how she cooked them. Dont think I could stomach them for breakfast tho - or the smell.

Will just have egg/bacon for brekkie. That will be enough.

Re: Dieting/Low Carbs


Not a good day. I have had a blip.

Brekkie - egg/bacon/grilled tomato.
Lunch - Mars bar
Dinner - tuna and salad.

I have put today behind me and will be making a major effort until Monday to get the scales moving again. Had a bad day with Sean at school today and got really stressed and the Mars bar kept telling me to eat it cos it would make me feel better about Sean and his school.

Re: Dieting/Low Carbs


lol Don't worry about it Donna, it happens to all of us, just pick yourself up and onwards and upwards, you WILL lose this weight

Just to make you feel better I had a packet of crisps today As I am not fully recovered from being ill on Saturday I took some fish into work today, started to feel sick again, couldn't face the fish, and the only thing in the office that wasn't chocolate (they have a massive box here full of chocolate which they keep topped up) was a bag of ready salted crisps. I will have the fish tomorrow

I am now back to low carbing this evening, meatballs with tomato sauce and roasted veg

Re: Dieting/Low Carbs


Was feeling really bad Emma, but you have cheered me up! Sorry to hear you are still feeling ill. Must be a bug either from what you have eaten, or just a stomach bug. HOpe it goes away soon.
