    Looks good also, just not over keen on peppers.

    I'm thinking that next time I will make it more on a Mexican/chilli theme and add grated cheese on the top and pop it in the oven to melt. Drools!!!

    Thanks for sharing these awesome low carb recipes. I was looking for such recipes to lower my carb intake.

    I've been Money Tipped!
    Well I've officially lost 2 stone since January 2016. Slow and steady and into size 18 now. I was verging on 24 :eek:

    Problem now, is that I'm off to Dubai on Monday with Uni. I have no idea what to eat. I've put dietary preferences on the plane as diabetic and lactose intolerant in the hopes that I get a lower carb meal. I know there's a lot of Indian food available so I can pick my usual Tandoori mixed grill style dinner (basically lots of meat) and breakfast shouldn't be a problem at the hotel. But I dint know what's available at lunch.

    Has anyone been?

    Congrats on the weight loss! Really well done. :)

    No, I haven't been to Dubai, so can't help you there. Have a great time though!

    My friends I've been a very bad boy this week, pigged out, ate loads of carbs, put on 2lbs but enjoyed every moment of it 😈

    I'll start again on Monday 😇

    Wow congratulations on your weigh loss.

    I have been low carb for a few weeks now and had lost 5 ponds but gained 2 this week but I have not changed my eating pattern. I am having less than 50g of carbs each day. Should I cut this down more?
