Day Twenty Eight

I set my alarm for eight o'clock this morning so that I could get up and ready to hit the supermarket when it opens at 10am :)

8.25am Breakfast
Bacon, scrambled egg (made with one egg) and three mushrooms with a mug of green tea.




13.20pm Lunch
Chicken Mayo salad with cucumber, lettuce, tomato and celery. With a glass of cranberry juice. I had it in a cereal bowl to try and cut portion size down.

15.00pm Mug of Green Tea

I've done my 55 minutes with Charlie Brooks and now need a shower!!! I'm sure I did more of the work out than yesterday too. :) I will take some more Senokot tonight as I haven't been since Thursday!! Took some before bed last night and will take some tonight, then hopefully I will go before weigh time tomorrow!

18.00pm Glass of cranberry juice

19.00pm Dinner
A practically zero carb dinner of cauliflower cheese :) (recipe posted yesterday) with a mug of Green Tea.

Day Twenty Seven

Wow! Day twenty seven!! not long until I have been back on low carb for a month now. Well, it's Saturday again, so something other than yogurt for breakfast! :)

While I was preparing my breakfast, I felt a bit thirsty so I poured a glass of fresh orange juice.



10am Breakfast
2 rashers of bacon (cooked in the George Foreman), fried egg, and some mushrooms cooked in the microwave with butter with a mug of Green Tea.



Photo shows it fits on a small plate lol


14.00pm Lunch
Prawn Mayo salad with lettuce, cucumber and fish sticks with a mug of Green Tea.

Small Prawn Mayo Salad Lunch

55 minutes on the Charlie Brooks workout!! I'm sure it is getting easier, did more than I usually do in the High Intensity and Pilates sections! :)


I need to do a food shop tomorrow, I am thinking of doing the low carb cauliflower cheese again so I'll need some milk or cream and I will use up the last of my lettuce tonight. I got a few things in on Friday ready for the Cabbage Detox Diet next week :) I'm actually looking forward to a good detox, I have never done one before :) I'll change the title of the blog post to 'Day blah blah CDD Day 1 of 7' (CDD = Cabbage Detox Diet, in case you were wondering lol).


Low Carb Cauli Cheese Recipe again: :)
Break up the cauliflower into florets and cook (steaming for 15 minutes is a good way. I use a collander type steamer over a pan of water.)

Beat 2 eggs into half a pint of milk or cream. add a teaspoon of made English mustard and mix in an ounce of grated strong cheddar cheese. Season. Pour this custard over the cauliflower in an oven proof dish. Sprinkle some more strong gated cheese ove and bake at 190 C for 35 minutes. The cheese topping should be bubbling.
Carb count is negligible.


I had 2 pieces of hollumi cheese and a glass of fresh orange while I was preparing dinner.

19.30pm Dinner
Chicken breast stuffed with dolcelette cheese, and wrapped in bacon with half a red onion, lettuce, cucumber and tomato with some French dressing. I actually forgot about the chicken in the oven so it's a bit well done and I think all the blue cheese has gone lol

Day Twenty Six

Friday again!!!! Wooooo :D No plans again though, except for trying to figure out why my washing machine didn't come on last night (its on a timer plug as I'm on Economy 7). My washing was still dry and unwashed this morning. :/

Breakfast 6.30am
Natural yoghurt, mixed nuts, and linseeds with a Mug of Green Tea.

8.15am Pot of Green Tea

13.30pm Lunch
Cheese and pickle salad with lettuce, cucumber, red onion, tomato and celery. Glass of cranberry juice.

Cheese & pickle salad

I got home and cleaned the flat, I must have burnt a load of calories doing it, but I will also do my Charlie Brooks workout today. I picked up some fibre supplements from Boots, so I shouldn't have any more problems there! The washing machine is working again, I swapped the timer plug for another that I had, then I realised that the time one the plug was out by a lot, so it would have come on about 8pm tonight! lol


16.40pm Mug of Green Tea


I've done my 55 minutes on the Charlie Brooks workout DVD, I manage to do more and more of it every time, its the 'High Intensity' section that I struggle with as it involves a lot of jumping around, then the press ups in the 'Pilates' section in the end, but I am doing more than I did when I first started, so its going well :) Dee Thresher says to march it out if it gets too much, so I do still move when I start to struggle, I don't just lie on the sofa lol :)


18.00pm Dinner
Prawn Mayo salad, lettuce, tomato, cucumber, celery and fish sticks. And a glass of cranberry juice.
