Hey! Thanks for asking, I've been so busy with uni work I'm reading but not commenting on diaries.
Another brill day with day 2 of the shred done and all legal foods still with very low carbs - not having anywhere near my allowance of veg, it just doesn't work for me. Although, I'm doing a roast today and I am going to have a fair bit.
But I feel better - the exercise is making me happy!!

Yesterday went well
Day 2 of the shred
B - 2 egg omelette with cheese and 1 large mushroom
L - ham spread with pesto cream cheese
T - roast chicken, broccoli, cauli and gravy (made with juices, stock and water)
Dessert - my family had cake and custard so I had 150g raspberries.
Snacks - 2 chilli cabanosi sausages.
Carbs were at 22g for the day but I'm ok with that - usually at 11/12 when I'm on track.... More of the same planned today

I got a personalised card and boots gift voucher through the post today from slim and save. I was one of the weight loss finalists in a recent conpetition!
I'm made up- made me feel really proud!
Oooh!
So today I've started well with bacon, eggs, 1 mushroom and I've made my first sweet mim. Added cream cheese and it was delicious!
Feeling very full up now!
Will do shred later and update food too!
Have a great day everyone

Ah thank you!
It's got pride of place on my kitchen dresser!
Today has been another positive day.
Breakfast - bacon and egg with 1 large mushroom
Snack - sweet mim (amazing!) with bit of cream cheese!
Lunch - tuna, mayo, 5 silver skin onions, lettuce and chili sausage - oh, with cheese!
Tea - chicken breast stuffed with garlic cream cheese and wrapped in prosciutto - possibly with some spinach or courgette.
Exercise - 1 hour walk
Day 3 of 30 day shred. SO glad I did it even though it was at 6pm.
Feel GREAT! And I have taken measurements of waist, hips so the scales don't have their usual hold over me!!

It was a quick update as I was in a rush. Yes I've measured my lumpiest bits!
I did days 1-3, rest and 4 this morning (early before work is the best time for me - sets me up for the rest of the day!)
Food has been good although been on a course yesterday and today and have had some of that cheese with cranberries in (my god that's amazing!)
I helped myself to buffet of seafood (teeny bit of seafood sauce) and salad (little bit) and 4 crab sticks. If I'm over carbs I'm over but I did take mim today and cream cheese and chicken breast yesterday.
Feeling upbeat and positive. Still not been on the scales!
Hope everyone is well x

Yeeee hahhh!!!
Feel great! Day 5 shred done! Body changing already and clothes feeling nicer!
Eating atkins food but adapted to me, less veg when I don't need or want it. Tesco do these sticks of cheese with pepperoni wrapped around - 4 for £1 and for all 4 sticks there was 1.6g carbs!
I nearly cheated last night (cake in the kitchen) but my friends helped me through, I resisted and I am so glad I did. Cake has now been eaten by colleagues!!

Hia Kellmo,
well done for passing up the cake as for veg don't ever worry about not eating enough, I do honestly believe that some people do not need as much and usually if we listen our bodies it will tell us when we need it. I stopped beating myself up over it because some days I just want to eat like you, cheese and meats snacks.
I know the sticks you mean and they are delish!

Thanks Goldi! This is just like Dukan for me but with the (essential I now realise, fat!) I don't know how I survived so long on that diet. I do sometimes really want some spinach, courgette or tomatoes and so i will have them but the 75% ish of carbs from veg just doesn't work so well for me. I nipped to tesco for my lunch and I thought I'd try on a skirt I liked. It's a little bit short to wear with bare legs or even nude tights BUT it was a size 12 and was gaping a bit on the waist! I think I might try a 10 tomorrow and see how that feels. Felt really good today and got lots of compliments - all these things motivate me! Eating crap and feeling low just send me into a vicious circle. Thanks for all your replies and support. - means a lot! Here's the skirt.... and my pins!
