| Thank you Mandi, Dietqueen and Bless you slinkytobe!! Your comments were really supportive, Day3-- and I went to my local mini Tesco and bought some turkey steaks. It was a great feeling to go food shopping for myself again. A lady who works there commented on not seeing me recently and on how much weight I had lost!! Yipeee!! I felt fantastic!! I have never cooked turkey steaks before so it was a bit of a challenge. I also bought a bag of baby spinach and a variety of lettuce. I decided to concoct my own recipe. I placed the Turkey steak in an oven proof dish and covered it will chilli powder, black pepper and water and cooked it in the oven for 30 minutes. Once it was cool I cut it into small pieces and placed the chunks on top of a bed of lettuce and spinach. I then added balsamic vinegar and more black pepper. It was divine!! The baby spinach had so much flavour!! I enjoyed every mouthful. It was so nice to sit and eat a meal from a plate using a knife and fork!! It was also great to eat a delicious healthy meal!! I have still drank about 5 litres of water today and decided not to add skimmed milk to coffee and tea or lemon to my water. I feel more confident about management today and back in control. Starting management made me feel anxious and panicky!! Roll on day4. It will probably be turkey again but cooked in a different way!! xx Hi AJ I have just seen you lovely message. Unfortunately I wear my heart on my sleeve and truly felt that I could not possibly do 12 weeks of management!! But I feel differently today. I know I need to do this to succeed. You have done so brilliantly on this diet. I bet you hardly recognise yourself anymore. You are a true inspiration to so many. Your diary is great too. I wish I could feel as focused as you are!! My hope is that I will only get stronger as the days pass. Keep posting. |I love reading your entries. xx
