Day2
Started on atkins yesterday. i used a low carb approach a couple of years ago and lost two stone in four months, which i kept off for the best part of a year before falling pregnant. i was advised not to follow a low carb diet during pregnancy (i'm diabetic) and ended up having a lot of carbs and becoming very insulin resistant in my pregnancy and putting on a lot of weight. So far i have lost 1.5 stone using a combination of low cal/shake diets but i've had enough of the hunger and also found myself going on carb binges now and then which i need to get out of. So it's back to Atkins!
yesterday went ok, ate mainly meat and salad and also cheese (mmmm) which i missed during my low cal diet. Today I started with a low carb shake and almond milk. Had some parma ham for a snack mid morning then gammon, cheese and rocket salad for lunch. Another low carb shake this afternoon, now I am getting a bit peckish but it's not far off tea time. Gonna try and recreate a meal my oh had at the weekend, goats cheese wrapped in smoked salmon, toasted and served with salad. Not been too bad today, not too many cravings. Luckily i like meat, cheese and seafood.
