Re: Dieting/Low Carbs


No eggs for me. I am trying to eat healthy and now I have the juicer I am juicing loads, but it won't be low carb as I will be juicing a lot of fruit.

Re: Dieting/Low Carbs


No unfortunately not at my ideal weight, I am about 10 stone (and going down ), but as I am doing a lot of exercise and in a couple of months I will be back to 9.5 stone, and I will be happy

Not sure that fruit is the new low carb, but I did a lot of juicing about 4 years ago and loved the way it made me feel. Just have to be careful it doesn't set off any cravings.

Breakfast has been a juice (fruit or veg)
lunch - Jacket potato and coleslaw
dinner - meat/fish with veg, or low carb pasta, low carb lasagna, curry.

Re: Dieting/Low Carbs


I must admit I do miss fruit on the low carb diet. I have snuck back to 10st5lbs (not completely put it all back on, but not far off) so decided to get things in order and lose it before I end up where I started!!

Re: Dieting/Low Carbs


Good idea Donna I am hoping that having loads of fruit and veg and more exercise I will lose a bit more, soon it will be summer and low carbing is then a doddle (salads etc )

I must admit it hasn't helped me being so busy at work, I tend to grab a quick sandwich/roll and bread really doesn't agree with me !!! lol

Re: Dieting/Low Carbs


Yes agree its too easy to grab a sandwich!! Am doing ok so far this week and the food I am eating is very nice. Will be harder once the novelty has worn off I guess!!!

Chicken with brocolli and cauliflower florets and cheese sauce tonight (if I can find the cheese sauce recipe!)

Re: Dieting/Low Carbs


Cheese sauce recipe....cheese (grated), cream, butter, cream cheese (if you have some) throw all ingredients into a pan and heat on a moderate heat until cheese has melted

I have got chicken and bacon and veg tonight and some juice
