    Is this ok?

    Hi all!

    Here is todays menu - how am I doing? I'm on day 5 of induction and I think i'm doing ok..but you guys are the experts!

    For breakfast I had 2 eggs scrambled with a touch of cream

    Lunch was a small greek salad - no tomato with some prawns marinated in chilli and corriander

    Snack is some Olives

    Dinner is going to be Pork Chops, A Stuffed Mushroom and some courgette Chips (deep fried strips of Courgette really!)

    Lots of water and a diet coke.

    How is that? x

    So are those deep fried strips of Courgette good? I would love to try them.
    I liked your menu. Did you have some oil in that salad for lunch?
    The only "maybe" is the diet coke. Aspartame is supposed to be one of the sweeteners we avoid. Also caffeine may interfere with some people's losses.

      I hope theyre nice as tonight is the first time i'm gona try them!! I'll let you know!

      To be honest I've been ok with Caffeine, but i only drank a few sips of the coke anyway - it was too sweet for me! We have a breakthrough!

      Yeah the salad had had basil and mint infused olive oil on it..Lovely!! x

        sounds delish
        And 'legal' too

        Those courgettes (zucchini in USA in case anyone was wondering) sound great as well - are you coating them in mayo & dipping them in parmesan before deepfrying or cooking them 'naked'?
        Wondering how to get 'most' of your net carbs from your induction veggies?
        Take a look at the thread from the latest Veggie Challenge to see how others manage it!

          I did them naked and to be honest I wasnt all that impressed.

          I think maybe they have too high a water content to deep fry...they were a little soggy - tho they did taste nice and sweet..
