So far the food is lovely, i had the thai prawn curry last night, again more like a soup but its nice, could do with some more prawns in it though, left me feeling a little hungry later but follwed their instructions and snacked on one of their snacks.

Had the broccoli and blue cheese soup for lunch, it was ok , this one is def one im going to swop out for in the next order.


I'm Generally not finding it difficult at all, not missing carbs yet, BUT  i know they are my enemy.


going to try one of the chicken dinners tonight and the fish soup for lunch.

29/7/10 day one

Howdee

well it's my first day on the Go-Lower diet and so far so good.

I have to say that the so far its very much like Atkins, from the food I recieved, it's very similar to the induction phase of atkins.

Having said this I think its better than Atkins, specially for a single person because its easy, the food is lovely and tasty not grocery shopping so far.

I had the granola for breakfast, tex mex soup for lunch and beef in thyme gravey for dinner and i do believe that i am already transitioning to ketosis, as i have the symptoms as uncomfortable as they are they make me smile. Had 12 glasses of water , nothing else.

I took my measurements this morning
Breasts -136 cm
waist 128 cm
Hips 144 cm
and the worst part is 133.6kg's

Tomorrow morning to i'm going to test my sugar level, i forgot to do that this morning .
The pain in my feet today on a level of between 1 and 10, you know 1 being good 10 very very bad.
They a 7.

I woke up in a rather crappy mood but I am feeling much happier

sorry its so erattiv i promise my next post will make more sense ;)
