15th October - Day 22 -

Feeling tired again.  Hardly surprising considering what I ate over the weekend!

Breakfast - Banana, slice of Leerdammer... I think I'm addicted!

Lunch - 1 x sausage and some guacamole + another banana!

Afternoon - I was cooking Coquille St Jacques and only needed half the wine so drank a small glass of white wine! (Naughty!)...  You are allowed wine in moderation but it's meant to be red!

Dinner - Coquille St Jacques (scallops, potato, egg yolk, butter, nutmeg, salt, pepper, cream, cheese, celery, thyme) with carrots, broccoli and brussels sprouts.

Also tonight is the Great British Bakeoff which always makes me hungry so I made some coconut macaroons based on this recipe.  I didn't make my own jammy stuff though, I just used 100% fruit wild blueberry jam from Holland and Barratt (it's sweetened with fruit juice rather than sugar).

23rd September - Day 1 and coconut macaroon recipe

Last night I binged a bit because it was my 'last night' of conventional eating!  No surprise then that I had stomach issues and couldn't sleep...

Breakfast - scrambled eggs with red pepper cooked in butter with frozen peas (cooked of course!)

Lunch - Tuna mayonnaise with basil plus mixed salad greens and cucumber.

Dinner - Lambs leg steak (fried), boiled beetroot, sprouts and carrots.

Snacks - 1 banana, 1 coconut macaroon (recipe found in 'Paleo for Beginners: Essentials to get Started' published by Rockridge Press or there is a similar alternative here.

Despite my new eating plan going okay my stomach is still playing up :(
