I am quite embarrassed about my food diary today - although my stomach doesn't appear to be any more bloated (although I do feel full to bursting_pale_)

# 1X coffee
# Cadbury flake mouse thing
# cheese and onion square crisps AND cheesy wotsits (totally unnecessary :wall:)

I have coconut oil and cream ... I sometimes have coconut cream though :-)
But yep regular coffee and a wee dash of cinnamon cause its meant to regulate blood sugar levels
Wonder what I've done wrong then .... Mine is as flat as a flat thing hmmmm0 -
It's not too bad natty honest ... I have eaten and seen much worse0

I do like cinnamon, so when coconut oil arrives, I will give that one a go :T
I think you need to catch up with MWC to check her quantities, as her hooch was definitely gassy this morning - have you heard from either Butti or skint spice regarding their ginger beer?February13 - £74990 (or thereabouts)

No not yet ... Will have a chat on Facebook with them hopefully
When you get the oil put a spoon of coffee in the cup a spoon of oil and a splash of cinnamon mix it then add hot water and cream ... Yummy :-)
I use the coconut oil with my omelettes etc ... In fact I only ever use olive and coconut oil now ... Coconut oil is great for Indian, Thai and Indonesian foods ... I got a 10kg tub for £125 ... Will no doubt cost more when I buy the next lot lol0 -
I wonder if you put a spoonful of granulated sugar in each bottle would you get the secondary fermentation needed for fizz?0

I thought I'll start posting my food entry for today :-)
Bowl of cereal (Frosties - the box needs to be emptied) with whole milk, a salad wrap for lunch, dinner, 2 cups of milky coffee (cafe au lait, if you want to be posh but then mine is 95% milk) and umpteen cups of Ribena and water. My weight now is 76kg, hope it will come down in the near future.
My MIL used to feed me bullet-proof coffee with raw egg in it or with ghee (clarified butter - 100% fat :eek:) when I was carrying my older son and I weighed around 45 kg then so that I would put on weight. May be I am feeling the after-effects now 22 years laterMortgage: @ Feb. 2007: £133,200; Apr. 2011: £24,373; May 2011: £175,999; Jun 2013: ~£97K; Mar. 2014 £392,212.73; Dec. 2015: £327,051.77; Mar. 2016: ~£480K; Mar. 2017 £444,445.74

But with coconut oil and cinnamon as well
Bleurgh I feel sick after reading that.
Melon, yogurt, cereal
Banana, apple, grapes
Pasta, roasted veg, cod & tomato sauce x 2 - couldn't be bothered making something different.
3 little cereal bars.
1oz low fat cheese.
Tea x lots.
A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effortMortgage Balance = £0

I think a special mention to should go to US for also including a photograph of her evening meal in her food diary:T
MWC and GG - your healthy food intake is showing up my poor Scottish diet no end. I'll make certain I start with porridge this morning, then take it from there....
By the way, I have moved on from kiddie porridge to proper adult porridge!!! One day at work (breakfast time) 3 colleagues were making porridge and arguing whose was best, and I was able to play goldilocks and try all 3 to settle the argument. As a result I actually like proper porridge
I have my boss, and two senior work colleagues over for lunch today. I thought I'd go all fancy so have purchased kettle crisps :rotfl:February13 - £74990 (or thereabouts)
