Day 5 of Stuart's Low Carb Diet

Ok we started Sunday with the cooked breakfast (pictured and posted yesterday) and then it was Sunday roast for lunch. No yorkshire pud here but roast beef, swiss chard, 3 small roast potatoes (you just got to have them on a roast!) and some small pieces of parsnip. - say around 40g net carb altogether for the whole meal.

In the evening I had the same ham and cheese type sandwich that I pictured a couple of days ago so that was a zero net carb evening meal with a few nuts snacked on during the day.

I did a shop yesterday so I bought some fish (pollack fillets), a pork joint, some bacon, cheddar cheese and 3 packs of sausages with low carbohydrate contents which I hope to start on when I've finished my current pack.

I also bought a packet of Miso Soup with Sea Vegetables which has 2.6g of carbs per serving and 1.1g of fibre so a net carb position of 1.5g per serving and I also bought a couple of cans of Sainsbury's Parsnip,Butternut Squash & Ginger soup from their 'be good to yourself range'. A whole tin of this is 14.4g of carbohydrate yet there are 20g of fibre in each tin!!

I shall probably have the first tin on its own to see what it is like and then if it is suitable then I may use the other tin as a sauce for a fish and vegetable stir fry (maybe add a chilli or two!).

And one final thing it was Sunday so I'd best declare the 3 or 4 glasses of red wine that I had during the day.
