Hi all , hoping someone more experienced in LCHF eating will be able to reassure me...
I am on Day 5 of strict LCHFing and have been really strict , also no dairy as I want to see if it clears up my skin. I have been having :
Breakfasts - eggs/bacon/mushrooms/ lc sausages fried in coconut oil
Lunches-
Spinach, cucumber, cherry toms, avocado, olives, hm olive oil dressing, salmon/smoked mackerel/ prawns, hard boiled egg
Dinners-
Meat/fish with veggies fried in butter, salad with oily dressing
Snacks- chorizo, olives, few berries, kiwis, nuts
So today my period started and I was feeling tired and pissed off in the evening and had a binge of a mug of hot chocolate , a pain au chocolat, a small choc bar, a handful of kiddy sweets and a few small mint chocolate thins. As you can see, sugar is my downfall!! Soon after I felt really quite nauseous and really thirsty . I then had to rush to the loo for a number 2(sorry, tmi)
My first question is, have I messed this up? I really want to do this to lose about a stone and conquer my sugar addiction but I seem to have fallen at the first hurdle.
My second question is a bit gross so apologies in advance. It's about poo! I didn't go at all for the first couple of days but since then I have an, ahem, urgent urge once or twice a day and it is rather like diarrhoea . More worryingly though, it is rather like an oil slick and I can literally see a film of oil on the water . Is this normal ? Sorry again!
