Had to be done. I stick to grape jelly but strawberry is a good change of pace. Typically I use reduced sugar jelly too because what with the milk and bread, carbs become precious and I love me some carbs. Also venison is legit. I need to track down a butcher so I can get some gamey meats. All these fat cows do is sit in a barn and get fed, deer are lean as hell because they have to work for their meals (berries and nuts? it all comes full circle on the PB&J, taking over the world, circle of life bro).

My jams have grape juicve to sweeten them instead of sugar. It's called meridian, the wild blueberry is awesome! Gotta love the carbs. Venison is good the burgers taste great and are only 154 cal per burger so its all good. Can seriously see ben and jerrys being prescribed as standard nutrition by doctors soon (not srs) haha

1 custard filled doughnut
2 slices hovis wholemeal bread with 30g pickle and a cheddar cheese slice
3 belvita crunchy oats biscuits and 3 wholegrain ryvita crackerbreads

Another good day on point aiming for a good weekly deficit and definately on track to about 8400 weekly deficit by end of week. Next week I'm going for a 10,000 weekly cal deficit at least to bring things in and get as much fat burnt as possible.
More tanning tomorrow. I'm liking the tanned look, also I won't look like a white beacon for my holiday!
