Low-carb diets support thread

hi again everyone!:footie: (hey put this on cos hubby at the toon tees derby & feeling more desperate than me!!)

well i started yesterday & have had a headache since the word go! i guess that goes to show how much tea & chocolate etc (i.e [EMAIL="!!!!"]!!!![/EMAIL]) i was eating if got one already!

Anyway, I had:

scrambled eggs, bacon & mushrooms

tuna salad with cheese
salted nuts
homemade onion soup (2 bowls!! but loads of leeks in)
And water- no tea to drink at all- i usually have 10 cups a day easy.

Today= same headache!
rest of salted nuts
sliced ham & parma ham & couple of bits of sun dried tomatoes & 2 sausgaes
more onion soup (rest now in the freezer)
tried to eat the salad but couldnt face it.
for tea when the kids go to bed I'm having salmon/spinach omlette thingy i've made with cauli mash- speaking of which- can I freeze it if i've used fresh cauli?
still no tea (tho have decAFF in cupboard if need it but trying to avoid the whole tea & biscuits/choc thing.)

P.S- if you convert kg to lbs & stones, I have 4.5 stone to lose. thanks everyone for posts & recipes today

Oooooh, are you for the toons or the tees?! Boro for me!!

Good luck with starting low-carb, make sure you eat enough though, and drink plenty of water. I re-started last week & felt rough as a badger's for a good few days, lol!!

Lol, I don't know why but I always thought you were in Spain!!

Now that I know you're in France I'm sooooooooooooo jealous!! Love it, love it, love it!! All that wine, cheese & crusty bread!! I don't think I could stick to low-carb if I lived there!!

How about a meeting-up of low-carb friends in France?! Now there's an idea!! Do they do cheap Travelodge rooms?! :rotfl:

I love France too, we stayed in a small guest house in Royan, Western France many years ago, and the owners wife used to bake fresh croissants every morning.

Have been to Gay Paree a few times and also driven all around the south coast staying in small guest houses/hotels.
Fab times.

Sounds idyllic *insert dreamy smilie*

Have wanted to holiday in France for years but hubby has always said no because he doesn't want to drive

Have been to Paris three times (on a coach trip) but would love to explore other parts of France in a big old camper van. I can but dream.

BOO @ sweet!!! i'm a toon girl!! lordy knows what state he'll be in tonight, if the toon win or not! haha
