Just made the creamy tuna from that website, didn't use carbalose flour , it was lovely, melted a slice of mozzarella on top of the tuna, yummy! X

Hi Tamzy, well done on an sts while swapping over. I'm sure you will get in the swing of things. I stayed on induction level carbs ie 20g for 6 months but did start working my way through the food groups as per owl. Useful to identify any triggers too - i can eat all nuts except peanuts when the carb monster comes out of the closet

 

[Tamzy1989]

hello everyone, thanks for checkin in on me. im finding the atkins way of life easier now, i also find that i get so full from breakfast that i lose my appetite for lunch and dinner. i went into holland and barrett and saw a lot of meat free stuff that i can try and their all low carb high protein chorizzo and meat free pepperami ect, i had a big smile on my face lol. ive also passed a lot of food places and didnt feel tempted once!

katie i love nuts especially salted cashew and peanuts, its always been my downfall along with cheese, atleast now i can have a bit without the guilt.

[Kat1e]

Doesn't look like too much to me. Can you get rid of the protein shakes...i'm not really convinced by them and worry they might might stall people (no data yet..just a feeling!)

 

[Jim]

Morning Tamzy, I don't see too much there, I'd ditch the shake and have a proper breakfast, also I don't see enough green leaf veggies there either.

 

[coffeelover]

Looks good Tanzy. The shakes are good in the morning if your in a rush and can't face eating, but not too often. I know your veggie, so it's a bit tricky. What brand is the smoke meat free sausage and where did you get it, sounds really good. x

 

[Tamzy1989]

Thank you guys for the advise, i just think im lazy why i drink the shakes, though it does make me feel full literally all day! its just an easy option for me to take into work as im running out of lunch ideas, but if its going to stall me then i will forget about it and try a different option for brekkie .

jim - i'll get my greens in today, i really do need to eat them as im feeling so bloated.

Coffeelover - I tried the sausage yesterday an it tasted fairly good considering its meat free, i got it in holland and barratts, its in a single packet and 89p each, think ill stick to 3 a week, wish they were in bigger packs and a bit cheaper lol. i think the brand is called grano vista " pepperoni style"

really cannot wait for fridays weigh in, my stomach is looking flat! think ive lost something lol
