Hello! Apologies for non-posting! The untimely death of my laptop was the cause..
SO - been on the low carb bandwagon for a wee while now - Ive finally lost about 4/5 pounds! There has definatley been some cheating going on - totally threw the rules out the window last week I must admit!
BUT Ive been totally carb free (not even low carb) for a whole week now, and Im feeling much better for it!Finally back at uni too, so have been forcing myself to the gym rather than the apparently useless wii fit!
Im finding energy levels are back to 'normal', and Im able to gym for a good hour without my past habit of thinking that I needed something carby to keep me going!
*TIP* I've learned from a wisened low carb blogger recently that bananas really are as bad as bread and pasta :-( I had been having one chopped into my yoghurts for breakfast - and after the last post when I hadnt lost any weight, I sought her out for advise! Coffee with a sugar is really rather naughty too, but I feel when I get to the point of cutting that out, I really am just being rather obsessive!
REALLY interested in anyone elses sucesses (I need motivation!) and tips :-)

I have heard that bananas (depending on the size) have about 26 grams of carbs each! That's way too much. Bananas are filling, and they taste good, but it's because they are one of the sweetest fruits. And that's exactly why they have so many carbs --- sugar.
ReplyDeleteYes I was gutted to find this out - but I do think they were part of the reason I wasnt shifting much weight! Havnt touched them since I found out though! Hows your low carb eating going? I miss pasta! J xx
