Did my first shop for the diet yesterday, just look at my fridge!
It was quite a simple shop, the trickiest item to buy was ham. I initially decided to get meat from the deli counter but on closer inspection found that the third item on the ingredients was sugar. I am actually shocked to discover that what I had always considered to be real food had what I think of as an unnecessary ingredient. I ended up buying a packet of top range ham which doesn't list any sugar or other -ose. It does however contain nitrates so I need to check if they are ok to have.
The shopping wasnt cheap so once the diet is up and running, I need to find cheaper places to buy meat and veg. At the moment offers in Tescos will have to do but I will be sourcing from more economical places eventually. Well, this is it....the last day of junk and processed foods. Going out with a bit of a bang, making a quick curry from a jar with pilau rice and poppadoms with a sponge pudding and custard for dessert. I'm feeling very positive and excited about these changes to our life. Fingers crossed we survive the first 5 days
