look at the stickies above i think you could eat more veg, upto 3 mugs a day, the book does explain in detail or look at the atkins website

Yes I agree with Stephen - more leafy greens - they help you stay regular (sad but true).

The headache could be from caffeine withdrawal - but you're having 5 coffees a day, effectively. Just monitor it and have lots of water. I went from 5-6 a day to 1-2, and do honestly feel much better for it.

Looks great but do try to get some green leafy stuff in there. It really does help.
