Do you get half and half in SA?

Nope.
Make your own with half full cream milk and half cream

Yes make my own.
Nice if it were available here though.

Don't follow this thread too closely but saw these ice-creams earlier at Organic Zone in Tokai. Thought of this thread. Was about R90 I think.

Looks good. Trouble with this, and every other low-carb ice-cream I've found, is they all use Xylitol, which turns my GI tract into a race-course.

Does this seem accurate? Seems a little high to me.

Seems about right. That is about 2200 kCal per day.

Just checked on MyFitnessPal and it gave me a number of around 7000 as a target... That's quite the difference

From my personal experience MyFP is crap with those estimates.

It is always way out compared to other calculators. Either giving people crazy low or high numbers depending on their goals.

I only use MyFP to log food. Don't use any of their recommendations. I enter my own manually and adjust monthly.

7000 and 1500 are the most common numbers I've seen for low loss. 5000 and 1200 are normally higher.

Yesterday I only had supper and that was lamb curry
Today I only had lunch which was chicken mayo, cheese and a cheesegriller

Eating 75% less than I normally do when not on LCHF.

Still think I'm dying?

I haven't had bacon in over 3 months Clearly I'm doing this lowcarb thing wrong...

It's nothing to worry about too much. Just readjust for tomorrow.
