thats a good day hun, what jam do you use ?

[suregena]

Right now I just have regular, sugary jam... (it's got sugar but trace everything else.) My husband ate the weight watchers one because he only has part of his brain in the mornings and was grabbing at that jam like it was the normal one!

You can get jams made without sugar, though. But as far as I know, sugar isn't a big deal on this diet?

[suregena]

Are you in the UK?

There is SuperJam (though those may be packed with nutrients as they are made with "Super fruits" and St. Dalfour that have no sugar added. Yummy.

[littlemissnaughty7]

yeah hun im in the uk, west midlands, where are u x

[littlemissnaughty7]

hey the weightwatchers lemon slices have 0.01g sodium in yay !!!!

St Dalfour is lovely, we always have that in our house!

We love the St Dalfour too. It is so yummy.

Can I just share something with you, ladies? I asked the lovely atomic a few questions the other day and got the following reply from her:

"You can safely eat as little as 40g protein but I don't think anyone needs to go any lower than that.

Do not drop the sodium any lower (than the recommended 700-1000mg). That is the level of sodium that is required for your health and this is true on all three diets, IG, FGD, and LE."

That's important info to share, GeCon! Thanks!

VERY bad diet day today... but it is a sensitive anniversary for me as it's 2 years ago that I lost my precious first baby.

morning:
massive bar of chocolate (literally a 120-ish gram bar!)

lunch:
tuna pasta salad with mayo (two bowlfuls - it was delicious)

tea:
we'll be going to Toby Carvery, and I plan to have roast gammon and turkey with all the trimmings



then back to "normal" boring diet tomorrow until either my BFP next cycle or the associated AF
