Im starting a diary but I am notoriously bad at keeping diarys....but here goes.....
This is my second time doing Atkins, last time was around June last year, I gave it up as I fell pregnant but that did not happen in the end, hubby asked me not to carry on with it as he reckoned Atkins made me grumpy (personally i think it was hormonal due to the pregnancy) so here I am again.
So been on 'induction' for a week now and lost 3.5 lbs so far - i just stay below 20g carbs and eat what i like - no dairy no caffiene, plenty peppermint tea, a square of 85% chocolate every day...
Today I weighed 10.8. And heres todays menu...
(no brekkie as woke up late)
L: 5 chicken wings
D: beef stew with red wine, leeks, carrots, garlic, onion (worked out 12 carbs per serving) cauli
S: 1 square85% chocolate (2.2 carbs)
Thanks for reading.
