We had a trip to York for 3 days to see family this week. In the past, we have always come home to a 4-6lb weight gain. This time we were determined to stay on track, and not to gain.
We cooked a lot of our own food to combat this. We made a Bacon & Goats Cheese Frittata, a shed load of boiled eggs, chicken thighs and some ‘clean’ corned beef (Ships from Tesco).
Our first meal and final day included what we had brought with us but then the middle day, my Mother wanted to go out for lunch, carnivores will know how difficult it is to eat out. To find a middle ground we suggested Nando’s.
Both myself and Jen ordered Mozzarella sticks (without the dip) and for our main course, I ordered a Whole Chicken, I asked for plain chicken. Jen ordered 4 chicken thighs and Chicken Wings (plain)
Coming home on Wednesday morning, we were putting wagers on how much weight/inflammation we had put on. Really looking forward to some fresh carnivore food of salmon, prawns and boiled eggs with Hollandaise sauce.
We thoroughly enjoyed our freshly cooked lunch. Then it was time to weigh in on Thursday morning.
Incredibly, the weight was a maintain, we were so relieved.
It turns out Nando’s is our place to go for an occasional treat.
