hello all,
Nikki1978 - I havent noticed any change in my energy levels, and have been feeling slightly more energetic than usual these last 2 days. But I have been on a more or less pasta, bread, potato free diet for the last 4 months, so my body must be ok with low carbs now anyway. Not sure how your body would fare if your used to a lot of carby foods, then doing loads of exercise on not many.
Janieann - its so disappointing when you put the effort in, and you dont see results. I have the book, and he says if you have eaten a salty meal, or something like smoked salmon, something with more salt in, then your body can retain a good few pounds of water for a few days. Maybe try no salt for a few days then weigh again? I havent felt rough, but I have been on a low carb diet for some months, so am used to being deprived! hope you feel better soon.
Uggmum - you seem to have good results which is spurring me on. Im upping my exercise tomorrow when im on my first PV day, so we'll see how that goes. I literally cant wait for some salad (very sad). Am dying for a bit of cake, chocolate etc. Sometimes I think I was more happier fat than what I am now, as the thought of chocolate and all the nice things I could eat infront of the tele would light up my day. Have finished the attack today, am not sure whether to leave it another week to weigh, as I dont want the disappointment of putting on during the PV days.
Insertexpletive - how are you finding the diet, have you lost anymore?
