14 days Low-Carb Diet

This is a 1^st day of my low-carb diet program with a group of Facebook friends. For 14 days to stop taking carbohydrate and sugar, we only take protein and fat, and this week it’s also the week I suppose to don’t take meat (vegetarian) but still want to start to go on diet plan with them.

Thinking of what food I should take no meat and no carbohydrate, I only can think about salad and hardboiled egg. My fridge got fresh white jelly fungus and dried black jelly fungus. I soak both in boiled water and add slice tomato, onion, and coriander.

To make yum/Thai salad, I put fresh chilli and garlic into mortar and pound a bit, add a bit of fish sauce and lime juice, normally  I will add a bit of sugar but because this time can’t take sugar, so I need to cut it down. Stir into my salad and mix well, eat with hardboiled egg.
