Day 2 of Our Low Carb Diet

Well I was a bit better prepared today so it was 2 rashers of bacon, 3 lincolnshire sausages and an egg for breakfast with a cup of coffee for around 2 net carbs.

During the day I had 4 small chicken legs that I cooked up yesterday, a small pot of nuts, some cheese and 20g of 85% Cocoa Fairtrade Chocolate (just 3.8 net carbs in 100 gram bar!). For drinks I had some caffeine free teas. So thats about another 9 net carbs.

I also had a packet of pork scratchings which turned out to be a bit of a disaster as I managed to crack a tooth whilst eating them and the NHS Dental Surgery near us was closed for lunch when I went up there!

For the evening meal I had a fish pie which comes in at around 20 net carbs.

So with a glass of wine and a few more nuts today will come in at around the 35 net carb mark.

I must admit that I have had a headache this evening and I had one yesterday afternoon too. I know this is because of the lack of caffeine so I'm going to have to have another coffee this evening. It has been a big jump going from 6 or 7 cups a day to 1 so I think if I have two a day then I have a better chance of weaning myself off the caffeine.
