Just done my shopping and bought so many green vegetables I felt virtuous packing my bags. So much meat, eggs and avocado though - it’s expensive! I’m starting on Saturday and I’m working Sat and Sun so hoping being busy will help. I’ve got my meals planned for week 1 and loosely following Diet Doctor’s 2 week challenge (swapped a couple of recipes I didn’t like the look of).
I’m scared of failing and of feeling out of control, hungry, cravings etc. I don’t know what to expect as I haven’t been able to go without carbs ever. I really want to do this and i’m going to focus on what this diet will give me long term. My ‘why’ is to not have to think about food all the time and thinking about where my next sugar fix is coming from. I want more energy, better cognitive function and a healthier body that will be stronger and leaner than ever before. I want my kids to grow up in a low sugar/no sugar environment and listen to their bodies, enjoy real food, so they don’t end up obese or diabetic like so many children are these days. I have about 10-14lbs of fat I would like to lose, which I know may not fall off but it would be great if my clothes fitted me again!
How did you all find the first few days and then weeks?
