I now weigh 15st 6.75lb, which means I have lost 5.25lb in just 2 days and yet I've never been hungry and eaten real food the whole time. The diet seems to be what it says on the tin so to speak.
Today is a Saturday and usually that is where any diet we do goes to pot but we had planned this weekend carefully knowing that we wouldn't feel good but also because we didnt want to put temptation in our way. And guess what.....we survived it! And that includes an unscheduled visit to McDonalds, aren't we doing well? Already watching people eating burgers and drinking fizzy drinks were stomach turning, reading Zoe Harcombe's book Stop Counting Calories and Start Losing Weight explains what processed foods do to your body and it really makes you think. I found it hard to even buy the food for my 4 year old daughter but as much as we would like to have her eat the healthy food, I think it best to do it a bit at a time. I would like her to eventually choose healthier options for herself.
We have to be very careful when we talk about diets as our daughter often talks about what she can and can't eat and I worry that she is too young to be focussed on food. So we try to talk about healthy eating rather than diet and hope she learns by example.
Today's food
Scrambled egg and bacon
Ham salad with olive oil and herb dressing
Roast chicken with roast parsnips and mixed veg
Natural full fat yoghurt for desserts (yummy, I'm serious I love it)
No cravings at all and don't even feel hungry, just need to break the habit of eating whenever I feel like it. Still feeling tired but hard to tell if that is a cold, or poorly child or diet.
What will tomorrow's weight be? I'm stupidly excited about getting weighed in the morning.....think I need more of a life!
