Feeling yucky.....but then again

[Solenne]

Someone else cooking lunch sounds like heaven. I feel like I may as well move into my kitchen for the duration! Good job my energy levels ae up for all the grocery shopping and cooking I'm doing.
As for the atkins bars - the chocolate orange one is the one I had and it was lush. Only ate half the bar and felt full.

I'm not too worried about the sleep thing. I keep waking up naturally and feeling refreshed so I figure that my body is getting the rest it needs. Not so sure I appreciate it so much on the weekends when I really have no reason to get up so early! But it may help during the week when I have to get up at stupid o'clock to get the kids to school!

Hope you have/have had a good lunch out. We are about to have our evening meal here. (Time differences are so weird!)

Speak to you soon.

Hi Solenne!

Make sure that you take the multivitamins (without iron) for the first few weeks - they really do help you get through those grotty days, I found the first 3 weeks I was having 'light headed' moments, but soon realised it was the days where I didn't take the multivits! I think all the extra water flushes your body of those important minerals and vitamins.

Very best of luck to you all with it - I am enjoying this WOE. - even better is that I dont have food on the brain all the time like I did when doing WW.

Thanks UK Girl. Does iron have an adverse effect when doing atkins? I ask because I'm anaemic and my doc keeps threatening me with iron tablets. I don't want anything undoing what I've achieved already.

I believe it is due to it making you constipated - but I could be wrong - that is just what I assumed!
