Good morning!
Day 3 of my low-carb - I feel like I've been on it weeks already! Meals will be:

B - 2 fried eggs & half tin chopped toms (have already sneaked a bit of yesterday's stewed apple!)
L - salmon salad (same as yesterday)
D - homemade garlic chicken (might roll it in oregano as someone has previously suggested) + garlic mushrooms/leeks

Well, I think I was a bit optimistic when I said I would read the previous posts in a couple of days!! Sat down last night & read for 3 hours - only got to page 20!! :eek: Only over 100 pages to go!! Some really useful information so far, & lots of support & encouragement, will try to nibble away at the rest of the posts over the coming weeks!!
PS-going to try & do a sig today, as other people have done, to show what low-carb I'm doing.

Morning, folks

Yesterday for me:

B: none
L: sausages and mushrooms
'shepherd's pie', cabbage; strawberries and cream
S: chunk of cheese

Today:

B: none
L: sausages and mushrooms
moussaka (I love this so much, but I shall have to stop eating it so often, or I'll get sick of it!), vegetables

Well done for getting to Day 3, sweetserendipity. That's the hardest bit over.

I too am a Savoy cabbage lover. Adore cabbage and bacon too.

Have a great day, all.

PS. Perhaps I'll do a LC sig too. Don't want to tempt the hubris gods, though.

Fingers crossed I manage to do something similar.
Also noticed when I was reading the earlier posts that Shykins, Ted, Tinkerbell & Vik6525 have lost loads. Well done everyone!!

Morning all. All happy little campers today?

I am. I've just has 2 sausages, 2 slices of bacon and 2 fried eggs. *sighs happily*

I'm going to force myself to go for a walk in a while. (I hate exercise I'm afraid.) It's either that or I go on the kids trampoline for 20mins.

Wonder if the neighbours would think I'd finally lost it.......

Have a good day.

Thanks, sweetserendipity. When I read your post, I thought 'oops, that's a mistake - I can't have lost that amount of blubber!' I had to work it out again - but it's quite correct. Plus no hunger, more energy and almost no problem when going out for meals (Zizzi, please take note: your menu is crap for low-carbers...:mad:).

I've low-carbed before, but never as successfully as this, partly due to this lovely thread. I've now got to the stage where I look fine in normal (January) clothes, i.e. trousers and a top, but I'd like to lose another stone so that I can feel comfortable wearing shorts in the summer.

It was Tinkerbell who set me off this time. I was very miserable and rather ashamed that I'd let myself get into that position. I knew I finally had to take action, and Tink's posts on another thread mentioned her fantastic weight loss and the IPD in her sig. I made the decision to begin the day after my birthday and, like you, I've been inspired by Shykins, Ted and all the others who've done so well. I feel so much happier and more confident, no longer self-conscious and thinking how people must be saying, 'Goodness, HC's put on a lot of weight over the last few years!' - which they must have been doing, as I really was overly plumptious (actually, I was just into the 'obese' category). I no longer dive for cover if someone gets out a camera, I can wear my wedding ring again after two years and I no longer feel like 'the fat one'. :j

So go for it!

WOW well done HC!

you make me feel newly inspired (again!). decided that i have to shift this weight once and for all this time else i will spend the rest of my life feeling miserable about my size. only want to lose another stone and a half but i have so little willpower and when granny gets her cake out each morning and says fancy a slice..well i dont have the heart to say no!

had three sausages and a banana for lunch...lmao all a bit..um..shaped..but was on the run. Am now going to make a casserole up for tea which i shall have with cauli and broccoli and just do some spuds for the kidlets.

shykins

aww thanks to both of u glad to inspire people to do the same

well laptop still dead and now ???!! NO HEATING, maybe all the shivering willcount as exercise?
