  • A bit of a throw together salad - rocket, bacon, tomato, avocado, egg & parmesan - lemon/mustard dressing.
  • Low carb salad for lunch using fresh rocket growing like a weed in my garden.
  • This week I made muffins using coconut flour, walnuts and sweetened with banana - they were so good - I ate them as my running out the door breakfast. About 160 calories for a small muffin. I just googled a recipe and tweaked it.
  • Yes I've read that intermittent fasts each day of 16 hours can put your body into fat burning mode - what hours do you do?
  • I totally hear you and I have the same problem after the kids go to bed. I find if I brush my teeth when they do or drink herbal tea sometimes it can help. I guess mine is mainly due to stress - I'm not hungry and maybe I should try doing some mindfulness activities - meditate or something?
  • I acknowledge that there are many diets you can follow to burn fat and I might be wrong about my belief for the need to go low carb to burn fat but I will be happier and healthier on my low carb Mediterranean style eating plan than anyone following an Atkins style lchf (which is nearly a no carb diet) or a low fat raw…

I also think you can learn to love your veges if cooked/prepared the right way - I personally don't like my veges in a smoothie - I love…
  • Yes you're not eating enough vegetables and you know it! Try different recipes because you may not be cooking/preparing them in the most delicious ways. You can always make recipes that hide veges - like burgers with grated zucchini and carrot or mashed "sweet potato" with cauliflower mixed in it.
  • I'm doing the 8 week blood sugar diet by Dr Mosley - I'm at end of Day 1 in Week 4.
