Food

I think a few people wonder what I actually do eat, given I currently don't have any dairy, eggs, nuts, soy, gluten, sugar (other than what's in fruit or raw honey) grains or starches and heavily restrict fish and seafood. I'm breastfeeding so I need to get some calories! For me right now, it means vegetables, fruit, lentils, meat, bone broths... and even sauerkraut. Hmmm. So I took photos of breakfast and lunch today (PS the plates look so full as they are side plates, not dinner plates)

Breakfast: Henderson's Dry Cured Bacon (no chemicals or preservatives) with mushrooms, guacamole, sauerkraut and a tomato on the side.

Morning tea: A small banana at home followed by a Grande Starbucks Chai Latte made with hemp milk while catching up with a friend. I am not actually allowed this - but it means I can still feel somewhat normal occasionally. I'm phasing these out which will be much easier as we start moving into summer. But goddamn, I miss my skinny flat whites!

Lunch: Munched on leftover lamb shanks from last night's dinner (which went into the pot to make a bone broth) with a side plate of tomato, cucumber, guac and mushrooms again along with that good old sauerkraut!! (Not really a fan but it's an important part of the eating protocol, especially the juice, so I mix it in with anything else on the plate I can until my taste buds learn to love the bloody stuff.)

Dinner: still only mid afternoon here, likely it will be salmon with asparagus!
