Reply With QuoteI generally find with low carb that I am just as full, or sometime fuller just by eating the ok part of the meal and not the carby bit. I remember when I used to get a 1/4 chicken and chips, I would be still hungry. When I went across to eating the quarter chicken, no chips, I found I was just as satisfied and for longer. So I sometimes do the same thing with things like spag bol. Just have a small bowl of the meaty sauce with a sprinkle of cheese and I feel satisfied, I am just substuituting the pasta for an extra serving spoon of the sauce.
I did my measurements a few weeks ago and plan to do them the same time next month so that should show me any chnages. I have my fitness test tomorrow night at Step into Life but not sure if they measure / weigh you.....however, I actually read the other day that you should only weigh once a month that way you will see a proper loss or gain not the fluctuations over a week ir AF time, fluid retention etc.......I think it makes sense. I am with you on the not stearing too far from a 'normal' diet.....only makes everyday toooooooooo hard! I also don't deny myself stuff. the other night we ate at the inlaws...and they ordered pizza! Thankfully it was thin and crispy and I allowed myself two slices, one each of my favs. The next day I drank 3L of water to wash it all out! lmao
