Low Carb Diet (atkins)

Mercy

Tis truly great news, shykins! I'll join u in another

Having a great day anyway then your news! Onwards and UPWARDS!

Spent the day in idle housework Getting things done, vaccing everywhere, including the newly home cleaned sofa, mopping bathroom, dishwasher, 3 lots of washing so far (a surprising amount) but doing it casually.

My mum's just had her 2nd hip op in 5 months, says she's glad she's not a spider :rotfl: Doin well so worry over

Eating a surprisingly small amount but have had a glass of wine already
no doubt the rest will follow but can't have another one til I've wiped and mopped the kitchen, including fridge cleaning! Mind you, I might need the glass early to give me the wherewithall to tackle the fridge :rotfl:

Hope you have all had a good day! Here comes the weekend! Yipeeee!

Yep, that may be so

Need a full day when I'm motivated to do any housework at all. Tackling painting the skirting boards and doors in the bathroom and kitchen tomorrow! Got all waterbased paints as can't stand the smell of gloss cos I work with it all the time. Probly deserve that wine!

Enjoy your night out, but how could you not?! :j

Congratulations Shykins!! Enjoy your celebrations.

A typical day for me Shykins would be:-

B - 2 egg omlette with a bit of stilton on top

L - Ham sandwich (made with flaxbread), maybe a small lump of cheese or boiled egg

D - Pork chops or chicken with broccoli, cauli.

If I fancied a treat I would have 1 cream cheese pancake (your recipe Shykins). I wouldn't have this everyday though.

Do you think I've been eating the wrong things? It's not TOM, I'm baffled why I've put on 2lbs. Do you think it's because I only had 5lbs to lose?

alm - where's your salad?

bit too much flaxbread maybe as well.

have you been drinking plenty of water?

alm71

I've been drinking 7-8 glasses of water a day. I alternate one night of salad with one night of vegetables. I'm a district nurse and I find that if I take a salad with me for lunch it doesn't cope very well with the heat in the car (it looks quite wilted by lunchtime, lol). I find the flaxbread sandwich easier for lunch. It may be that the flaxbread has caused the weight gain. I've felt so fed up today I gave in to my carb cravings and have had a very bad day. :mad:

Thanks for the ideas for tonights turkey! Ive just panfried it with mushrooms and onions plusa couple of spoons of hot chilli powder. Near the end I added approx 15g tom puree(1.5g carbs)and 2 100ml packs of LLoyd Grossman tomato and chilli(14.6g carbs) so approx 16 g carbs total-serves 4.
Kids will have theirs with spaghetti-mine will be eaten either on its own or with green beans tomorrow. Tonight I bought a lot of Atkins style bargains and ended up with 2 pure beefburgers with chilli butter and leeks for tea.
280ml pots of cream were for sale at 20p each-after Id bought a fullprice one elsewhere. However-I bought 2 as they last way past their sellby date.
I went to the market today where I bought leeks cauli and brocolli. Wheres my medal?:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:
I also parked as far away from my car as possible when I parked-no bad weather as an excuse after all.
Im going to buy myself a reward for each half stone I lose! Nothing edible-I think-a cheapish pair of earrings from Argos will fit the bill!
"Because Im worth it". Hope everyone else is behaving???;)
