Day 1 of the Low Carb Challenge

Well, it was a crazy day but I made it through day 1. 
Day 1 called bacon mushroom cheese burger lettuce wraps, using lettuce leafs instead of buns.

This isn't my picture; it's from the diet doctor website.  Doesn't it look good?

 My Dad was making chicken on the grill so after I made my patties he grilled them for me.  I added some cheddar cheese, and also grilled a portobello mushroom (delish).

I didn't have a chance to take photos because I was so hungry; I skipped breakfast and lunch due to circumstances beyond my control.  So no picture, but they pretty much looked like the ones in the photo, except I used romaine lettuce instead of iceberg, and portobello mushrooms instead of white. 

Taste wise, I didn't miss the bun, but mess wise, I sure did.  I meant to make some oopsie bread to use as buns. The pic below is not mine; it's from the diet doctor website.

They're a kind of low carb "bread" made from eggs and psyllium fibre, but I didn't have time.

I also made way too many burgers; I ate 1, my dogs split one, and I have 5 left for tomorrow (3 for me, and 2 for the dogs).

Here's the recipe for the burgers.
