Day 10 - Lost 8lbs in weight.

Firstly apologies for not posting in several days. My 20 month old son needed to be admitted to hospital, so my priorities have obviously been with him. At one point I was extremely worried for him, but luckily he is now on the road to recovery.

I have been working exceptionally hard to stick to my low carb diet. I have been doing well with the exception of "Carb Day", when I ate a high carb Ginsters steak slice. I decided to have 1 day a week where I would consume a normal quantity of carbohydrates, I call the day "carb day". I am finding not eating carb quite hard at times, as most foods I enjoy contain a high carb content, Pasta, Pizza, Rice, Potato etc.

I have noticed some psychological affects since starting my diet. I felt an overwelming feeling of guilt on my carb day, to the point where I didn't finish the meal. I was very anxious and thought that I would put weight on from eating the carbs.

My fears were unneccessary as I have now lost 8lbs in 10 days, which I am extremely pleased about. My BMI is now 30.72.
