Default Day 4 of LC, Just want to share my experiences so far...

Hi all! Well, here I am on day 4, and this low-carb lifestyle is ... *interesting.* I've been eating a lot of chicken breasts, some ground beef, cheese, eggs, I've found that dill pickle spears make a good, flavorful snack. Any tips for mixing it up and keeping the food interesting on induction? I've felt a *tiny* bit pf boredom creeping in, but I have staved it off...any good, *really* simple stuff you can reccomend that won't make me fall off the wagon? I'm single, I cook/eat by myself, so I cook very little, and I keep it extremely simple. I don't get fancy.

These carb/sugar cravings are KILLING ME!!! I have held my ground so far though - I guess one good thing is that I have never felt a real difference this early into a diet before! I think I have lost a pound, so *yay!*

All in all, I think this is a great, positive change. I have written down all of the reasons why I am doing my body a favor by changing to this WOL. When I am hit by cravings, I grab a bottle of water, go over my list, and it helps.

The only downfalls so far? Lets just say there has been a lot of tummy upset ...

Please lend any tips/hints or share your experiences here!
