Step away from the cake..
I've just spent nearly 2 weeks doing slim and save, and then fell off the wagon. Getting back on, I made a list of the pros and cons of carrying on with slim and save. Some of the cons, including feeding my children junk because I didn't want to cook, and not eating with my kids led me to look at other diets. I've concluded that I want to stay low carb and I love the convenience of packs, so I'm going to try combining them in a diet of my own. If this doesn't work m heading back to slim and save!
So, my diet: this will be a ketogenic diet so I want to restrict my carbs to less than 60g a day and my cals to less than 1200 (where possible, I'm not that bothered by the calories as long as theyre lowish...
I've bought the Dukan diet life plan and Atkins cookbook for motivation and recipes. I'm aiming to feed the kids what I'm eating for evening meal, with carbs as appropriate (tonight they had the same as me but with mashed potato). Back to school next week so lunches will be less of a problem!
So, day 1:
B S&S cafe latte shake
L S&S soup
S 12 almonds, 10 button mushrooms, small soya latte from costa
D fillet steak with homemade tomato, courgette and red pepper sauce
S Galette (recipe from Dukan)
Exercise: run / walk on treadmill 30 mins
Water: 2.5 litres
Total cal: 929
total carbs: 49g
