We are going to do this but we need no distractions or temptations, we go through the cupboards and fridge and get rid of everything that does not fit in with this low-carb lifestyle.We bought Ian's starter guide and shopped to that for the first week or two.
The results were almost instant. Greatly reduced salt, no aspartame no processed or packaged food and incredible results in a short time.It is great to be cooking with and eating real butter, omg I forgot how good it tastes and I am now a huge fan of avocado after eating my first one in 44 years.
We are cooking again, real food with real ingredients and enjoying every minute of it.We cook extra to have in our lunch boxes every day and none of it is difficult
We included exercise slowly at first but now after 9 weeks we are running 10 miles a week and home workouts as well. We started running with an Ipod app Couch to 5K and it has been great.
The important bit is that my weight is down from 17st to 14st 12lbs and my BMI is from 39.5 to 30.9 and all this has happened over 9 weeks. it is amazing, one of the best perks is that I can still drink red wine. This is a win win situation.
We have a number of Low-carb cooking books that we use and we will give details of soon and a great cook book by Julia Child which is inspirational. These books include great things like waffles and chocolate mousse and a great simple omelette.
Remember we are only 9 weeks into this eating lifestyle imagine what we can achieve in 9 months ?
Welcome to my blog, varied,strange and sometimes downright odd but hopefully everyone will find an interesting snippet or two. Sometimes radio sometimes spiders and often whatever I am thinking about, take a look.
