I was amazed this morning. I woke up full of beans, high energy, more than 1kg lighter than I was 4 days ago and very clear-headed. This is working!! I feel different! I feel energised and raring to go! Who would believe that cutting sugar and carbs would give me more energy! In reading a bit about what I have called ‘High Protein Eatin’ (because it rhymes), I have discovered the emphasis is better on the Low Carb, High Fat (LCHF) part of the eating plan. So if you want to know more about how it all works, google LCHF and read all about it. There’s this website:

…which is LCHF for Beginners and has lots of advice and tips and even recipes. I am getting a steady flow of emails and questions about what people should be eating. I keep saying, “I’m not the expert!”, so google up on it and on 13th November we’ll have Professor Tim Noakes back on Rise and Shine – 107.5 CCFM, Cape Town wide between 7 & 8 for more info!
Today, I found some really yummy low carb, high fat snacks, which were a worthy lunch snack…
Oh, these were ‘moreish’! I can imagine going to the movies and instead of eating a box of popcorn, polishing a bag, like this off…but after about 1/4 cupful I was really full. Being toasted and salted they were particularly yummy. I ate some of these too…
Nice! I also bought one my all time favourite foods…
Avos are high in fat and are also filling. I’m busy working on a LCHF food list which eventually will appear on this blog. Tonight we are having…
Lots of people have asked about ‘Granny’. She is still in hospital, awaiting physio. Once we have assessed her mobility it will be decided whether she comes home or gets referred to Living Hope for a while. I have always wanted to keep Granny at home, but if she is bed-ridden, we won’t be able to cope and may need to make another arrangement. I’m wrapping up this blog and then going to the hospital to see her.
From the Bible -Galatians 6:9 – “Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.”
God bless and have a fab Low Carb, High Fat evening!
