I have previously done Dr Cohen's lifestyle diet and successfully lost 30kg now that I have had my first baby (9months ago) I need to lose ideally 50kg but I would be more than happy with 30kg.

Has anyone else starting a low carb diet?
I will record daily to keep my self accountable.
Day 1 Food diary
B coffee + 2 slices of cheese
L lettuce 120g + tuna 120g and 1 tbs mayo
S sunflower seeds 2 big handfuls
D chicken 120g and salad 105g and yogurt dressing (full fat yogurt, chilli and lime)
10 little crackers
S sunflower seeds 2 big handfuls
Kiwi
2 oranges
1 coffee.

Does this look OK to you guys?

The kiwi by itself has 11g of carbs which is over half the allowed carbs on the induction phase of Atkins. Add in the two oranges, 4 big handfulls is seeds and crackers then it's not low carb at all.
If you want to eat low carb then you can't eat fruit or seeds.

No! That's not a low carb diet.

Fruit and seeds and crackers will add way too many carbs
