Decided to use the six week holidays to get into good habits generally. That includes eating better and exercising more. After a bit of reading I think low carb is a sensible way to go for me. I eat masses of carbs normally. Bread with every meal plus potatoes, massive helpings of white pasta etc. I'm not going hardcore about it as that is always a sure fire way to make me fail. I've got about 2 and a half stones that could do with shifting but really I just want to feel better and have more energy. So I went out this morning to stock up on the right stuff. So far today I have had deli meats and cheese for breakfast/brunch after shopping. Then I have just made a delicious lunch of scrambled eggs with broccoli and asparagus cooked in a bit of garlic butter and some blue cheese mixed though it all. To stave off any sweet cravings I had a small helping of melon with some Greek yoghurt after. I've also drunk plenty of water. Later I'm planning creamy tarragon chicken with green beans and I'll do some rice for the others to go with it. Looking forward to it already! So have I totally misunderstood this or can I genuinely eat such delicious food and be healthier?!

Either this is the best diet ever or I'm doing it wrong!?
