Bless they're generally very good as they've always had to come shopping just gets stressful if it takes too long!
A wee rice cake or 2 or 3 keeps them happy for a bit though!! x

Flutter, you're not eating enough leafy green veggies.

Hi Jim - sorry for being a bit dim but do you mean I should be eating more lettuce, cabbage etc or what other leafy green veggies should I be eating? .....

B - 2 egg omelette with sprinkly cheese
L - went out but think I did ok - chicken breast, bacon (didn't eat), slice cheese (scraped off barbecue sauce) then all you can eat salad so choose lettuce, 2 cherry toms, slices cucumber, pepper, bacon bits, blue cheese dressing (small amount), red cabbage, beetroot (small amount!) very yummy
D - didn't have anything feel very sick again
Exercise - none

Will try and incorporate more veggies - unfortunately I always used to get veg intake through soup so may have to come up with some Atkins friendly soup ideas.

 

[Jim]

Yes love, you should be having 3 mugs of chopped veggies a day, 2 of which should be green leaf veggies. Cabbage, Pak Choi, Spinach, lettuce of all types etc....

Ok will incorporate more into my diet, thanks Jim.

To be honest I feel rubbish this morning, had a headache since yesterday and felt sick since Wednesday not sure if I have cold coming on or whether it is carb withdrawal and the dreaded atkins flu but at least I know it's only temporary whichever it is.

B - 2 x slices ham spread with philly cheese
L - chicken mayo sandwich (no bread obviously small side salad, Atkins daybreak bar as starving
D - chicken fajitas (minus the tortilla) with baby salad, tomato, red onion, mushroom, pepper, sour cream, grated cheese - yum!
Snack - sf jelly,cream

I'd bet it's Atkins Flu love.

And the best thing is, it will lift in a day or so - then you're all set to eat lots of lovely food and enjoy it!

Morning flutter, how was the weekend then?

 

[flutter-by-us]

Morning Jim a cold but good weekend thanks - snow forecast this week apparently! Busy with the kids (who are full of the cold!) trying to keep them entertained as it rained all weekend hence need for comfort food!
How was your Chinese? Hope you enjoyed a lovely meal.
WI was good today down 1.5kg so glad I switched as definitely think too many carbs with Dukan and eating better food with Atkins!

[Jim]

The Chinese was. a total pig out.

Snow! dear god, a bit early for that even up your way I'd have thought flutter.

 

[flutter-by-us]

He he well if you're going to eat naughties then do it in style! Sept is very early for snow even here but there's been a definite change in the air that's for sure!

 

[Jim]

It's a bit Autumnal down here in the Midlands as well flutter.

 

[flutter-by-us]

It's a lovely season though with the changing colours etc and crisp (but hopefully dry) days! Wrap up warm!

 

[Jim]

Yes, nearly time to get my winter coat out I think. Time was when I was 25+ stone, I never felt the cold. LOL.
