Oh, i couldnt cope with 6 a week...what would i have for breakfast everyday? Lol

Thanks! I will try to cut down to 2 a day....

LOL Jim did hardline Atkins - meat and veg for brekkie, lunch and dinner

 

[Broox159]

Oh....I couldnt imagine eating vegetables for breakfast! It obviously worked well for Jim though!

Evening Natalie... I read somewhere that eggs aren't as harmful as they make them out to be - another myth I think - menus sound good! X

 

[Broox159]

Thats good to know!

I made some oopsie rolls and a mim when i got home...oopsie rolls taste good ( i had a nibble) but they are quite small, couldnt fit a burger in one! Lol

The mim was nice too, i might slice my next one (not today!) and grill it to have it toasted!

Dinner is in the oven, looking forward to my lamb and cabbage! Mmmmmm

Hi Natalie, no proven research data showing link between dietary cholesteral and cholesterol readings - it's one of those statements turned into dietary advice :sigh: so enjoy them

 

[ladyfelsham]

Yaye, good to know - thanks Katie - and let's face it, eggs are a little power pack full of nutrients

Thanks Katie! Thats good to know! I shall look forward to my 3 scrambly eggs tomorrow! Hehehe

I just had some sugar free jelly and cream, i think i might have gone slightly over my 20g of carbs today....shall have to be more strict tomorrow!

Hi Broox

This is my first time posting here and I'm jumping in because I can so relate to your story. The first weeks on Atkins are the pits! Once you get solidly into ketosis you will find it easier, but it took me about three weeks until I could exercise at all without feeling like I was walking through treacle. It helped me to read the book thoroughly (New Atkins for New You) and to understand that it takes the body several weeks to switch from burning carbs to burning fat for energy, but once this happens you will feel great. So please hang in there!

^ agree agree

although i got into ketosis in two weeks (at least i checked after two weeks)

 

[Broox159]

Mornig natalie, it'll be water retention, are you drinking plenty of water love?

 

[Broox159]

I'm tryin to drink lots, i having about 2 litres a day, maybe i need to aim for 3 or 4? (i hate havig to pee! Lol). I really hope if i up my water ill have lost a few lbs by friday!

 

[Jim]

Morning Natalie, I'd aim for 3 myself, that should do it, the other thing is to look at carb creep and how much cheese you are eating love.
