So I've re-read the book over the last week or so (2nd time now) and today, without even thinking about it, I am fairly sure I have come in under 15 carbs!

B - 3 egg omelette (shouldn't have had 3, 2 was sufficient, but somehow my egg/cream ratio was off so had to add an extra one in) made with a little half an half (maybe 2? carbs) + 3 for the eggs
with 3 slices bacon (0 carbs)
mushrooms (about 6 pre-sliced ones) - ?1 carb
grated cheddar cheese

L home made cauliflower soup (I estimate around 4 carbs?)

S two slices "natural" ham rolled up with one slice havarti cheese 0 carbs

D small chicken fillet with stir fried vegies - few mushrooms, about 8 snow peas, little onion, little broccoli, red pepper - unsure of total carbs - guesstimate maybe 4?
a little soy - not sure if that has carbs

treat - whipped cream with sugar free raspberry syrup

Is that ok for a first day?
Comments appreciated

Don't yell at me if I haven't calculated correctly, I wasn't really trying, but I think I did pretty well for an "unofficial" first day?

Actually Jo, I just did.  She looks amazing!
I hope to be able to post before and after pics in a few months time!

Hi Umpa,

Thanks for all the warm welcomes.  Mmmm what foods do they eat in Australia?  Well, mostly fresh stuff, made from scratch.  When I moved to North America I was sucked into the "easy" preparation of my meals and even though I found all the bread VERY sweet, I have slowly become addicted to it, I'm sad to say.

I am determined this time and feel like I'm on the right track with FTS.

I don't get on here too often, but will try to make it more regularly, because I think talking about it is something that really helps.

I plan on getting my ticker going too, so that I can share with you all on how well I'm doing - Positive, positive, positive!

Hi everyone,
I've been reading lots of topics on the forum and learning a lot.
Just wondered though - cheesy broccoli or broccoli with cheese sauce or something similar seems to be popping up in the meal plans and I can't locate a recipe for it.
Can someone please help or point me in the right direction. 
Thanks,
Ausgirl

Hello Katary and thank you....I wish I could be in a bikini this summer, but I think it will take a little longer than that.

I am an Aussie, but not living there at the moment - going back for a holiday in June though!

Hello everyone, new member here, just working my way around, read the book a while back, fell off the wagon, am about to read again and get on here to discuss with you guys.

Looking forward to a new me sometime!
