Day One: 219

So the first day hasn't gone so badly. It's tea time and I'm a little peckish, but that's alright. Wouldn't mind a beer, but I really overindulged in the past couple of days (in preperation, haha!) so my total abstention, for at least the next couple of weeks, has to be a great thing. Man, I feel so upbeat about this, there must be something very wrong!
I weigh more than I've ever weighed. Even when I was pregnant I was never this big, and sometimes, depending on what I'm wearing, I do look pregenant, which is not a particularly good state of affairs. I'd love to say that I don't know how I got here, but I do. Big portion sizes, drink, a bit of a bingeing problem, no attempt to control what I put in my mouth - I know exactly why. But I suppose there's no point getting upset about that today, I just have to try and do something about it.
I choose low carb because:
1) I've lost weight on it before - even though I put it back on, lots of people put back on weight that they lost, whatever the diet.
2) I like the food.
3) I'm no good at calorie controlled diets. I get hungry, angry and cheat.

I'm probably not going to follow one particular plan. But its going to be atkinsy, I think, for maximum success.

Day One Menu:
B: Bacon, Egg, 3 grilled cherry tomatoes
L: Roast Chicken, Broccoli
D: Snacky things - Cheese, frankfurter, couple more cherry toms
Drink: Water, Mint Tea
