Day 12? (losing track of days now)
Weight - down half a pound, very happy. So that's 2.5lbs so far this week and 3 days until official 2 week weigh in.
The diet is going well still, keep having very real dreams about eating food! Usually very high carb with cheese
always feel guilty in the morning until I realise I'm still 100%. Not cheated once since starting the diet, and feel like the longer I go without a cheat the harder it'll be to cheat. Let's hope that theory works, I'm determined this time!!
Spent most of yesterday looking at clothes on the internet, can't wait for the spring/summer!
Back to Uni in about 2 weeks, so I'm very nervous that it'll create more stress and I'll crack. But in 2 weeks I'll have been on the plan for around 1 month, so I don't think it'll be an issue. Also, I'm in on Monday & Friday for 2 class, 2 hrs each and no break in the middle, so it's ideal for not snacking etc. I'll just have a coffee and a S&S bar between classes. I'm certain I can get through it, Uni is a big trigger for me to snack as I really put so much into it, especially in the evenings. I work full time and am at Uni full time, so we get a lot of coursework that I do in the evening.. usually I like snacking as I'm doing it as it helps my anxiety about getting a good grade! arghh, will have to munch on cucumber.
Not had Zero noodles for 2 or 3 days now, just not too bothered for them. Might cook them and dry fry them to give them a crunchy texture? add a little spring onion and pepper.. might be a nice snack.. It's wierd, I say all that, but then in reality I'm just not that bothered. I'll just eat my 4 packs a day and hopefully get to the end quickly.
Going to go for another walk today, I want to try and keep fit as I lose weight, just so I don't have a massive fitness thing at the end and because I'm quite a sportY person, I want to get back to doing things sooner rather than later. Walking is the only thing I can fit in right now, might go swimming once a week soon as well, but I can burn just as much doing the Wii fit etc and it's free!
One thing I did get at the beginning was 2 very expensive water bottles (£15 each!) called an Eco Vessel. They are a 750ml plastic water bottle but they have a large straw in them, so I can drink water really easily and quickly. I now have around 6ltrs of water a day! I glug one of these bottles before every meal and I'm sure it helps my hunger. If I'm peckish, I glug one and the hunger goes!! I really like them! Also use a water filter for the tap water, just tastes a bit nicer, £5 from Asda.
I feel a bit slimmer, but nothing major so far. I think I won't feel it until I lose 2 stones, then hopefully every stone will feel like a big step closer to the real me hiding inside.
Hope everyone had a good weekend!
