Day Two Carb-free

Well yesterday went ok... Though I think I might have over-eaten slightly (all that cheese and salami in the fridge was just toooo tempting). Plus the novelty of being able to eat tonnes of cooked meat and cheeses went to my head a bit... Just weighed myself and I'm already 2lb down from yesterday, so SOMETHING seems to be happening...

Woke up feeling really potsy today though... I'm hoping it's not the diet. I had a broken night's sleep (a wasp broke in to my bedroom and held me at knife point) plus I'm due on... so the potsy-ness could be due to those factors, or just general unexplained potsy-ness that I get all the time... so not gonna blame the diet just yet.

Not much to report as I've not eaten yet... Am dying for my morning cup of tea again :-( Will just have to have it made with cream instead of milk.. it tastes a bit claggy made that way - I can't even stand semi-skimmed milk in my tea usually, so this is going to take some getting used to. But hey ho, it's a small sacrifice if it's gonna make me skinny :-)

So breakfast today is going to be poached eggs with smoked salmon (ambassador, you're spoiling us) with a small amount of spinach and mushrooms (will have to count the carbs there, but I can't go without my veggies).

One good thing about this diet, I've noticed, is that I'm so busy feeling sinful over eating tomatoes and spinach that I have no time to think about the REALLY sinful stuff like chocolate and cake. Psychology is everything when it comes to dieting and giving things up... so if it works that way I'm happy to go with that.

"Oh god, I've been really naughty today - I binged on tomatoes."

Surely this psychology has got to be good for my body?

More later (post-lunch no doubt).
