Thanks, I like this diet I think it suits me, the only thing I find difficult is breakfast. Id love some porridge or berries and yogurt - is there any yogurt that is low carb??

I had a minor disaster yesterday - I ate a chapati with a lamb madras and some ice cream - just a couple of spoonfulls, and 3 beers . Im very annoyed with myself but I am not going to dwell on it, plus it could have been much worse. But I am totally back on track today! I am going to re read the book for added motivation!

Thanks Claire - I love Petits filous, it will be such a treat not to have to cook breakfast. I like plain natural yogurt too so ill check the carbs on it just to see. Well today was good, a few niggly cravings but nothing too bad. I am starting my christmas challenge - 22 lbs off from now till xmas!

I found a yogurt that is 4g of carbs / 100g, it plain natural greek style and a little bitter but I really like it. Its called Clandeboye estate - not sure if you can get it outside ireland though??

Well I had a sneaky peek at the scales and I have lost nothing so far this week, but I am not disheartened - still 2 full days to WI and I def need to drink more water and eat less snacks

Right I am trying a little modification - I know I shouldn't mess with the formula - if it aint broke etc. etc. but I am getting lots of spots and I really miss fruit a veg - so here is my plan - a little more fruit and veg (the lower GI ones) and a little less dairy (I dont think it really agrees with me). SO ill see what friday's weigh in brings and if I gain or STS im back on induction with a vegence.
I never really managed to get in ketosis anyway so Im not too bothered about that, its just if I get cravings back ill be v annoyed

Well I had a terrible weekend - I was very badly behaved :whoopass: Im not even going to begin to tell you what I ate.We had guests up for the weekend and I just ate all round me. I think I was annoyed my friend didnt notice I had lost any weight - I saw her about 8 weeks ago so just before I lost any weight.
Now two things bother me about this -
1: I was so weak when I had no cravings
2: how easily the 'I have failed, I might as well binge/eat loads mentality' came back - this worries me for the future:sigh:
On a brighter note I did lots of exercise over the weekend and I am strictly back on Induction tomorrow!!! I hope I have not done too much damage
