What to drink? Ideas please am about to fail!!
Hi all
DH and I started Atkins induction last Thursday. For me no weight loss yet but it's early days, also feeling very sleeeeepy and finding running much harder work than usual, workout virtually impossible but I've been told this will pass and I don't have any headache or feel ill at all so not bad No sugar cravings (only sugar intake previously was from fruit which I am really missing but not to the point of failing), am missing rice and potatoes but not lusting after them. Generally all good and mighty easy!
My problem is that DH can't use artificial sweetener and I won't use it and we are bored sh*tless (literally in my case) with water! Our normal drinks are fizzy water mixed with fruit juice (1 pt juice to 10 pts water), tea with milk (him), black coffee (me, which I'm still having) and the occasional full on fruit juice as a treat! DH also normally drinks a smoothie a day made with yoghurt. Neither of us take sugar. The lack of milk and artificial sweetener means we are reduced to water and black coffee and it is DULL! We are both so bored with water we are struggling to find the motivation to drink it .. usually I drink at least L a day at work plus another L during my workout, because it is all I can drink I can't face it
HELP!!!
