Right then, I have made it through day one. Got a slight headache, but nothing unbearable... not done too well on the water front - I am notorious for not drinking enough... I've probably managed a litre at most, plus my shakes. MUST do better. Don't want to get into any sticky situations 'toilet' wise!
Had a bit of a close call this evening when I popped to the pub to meet my mum after work, only to get there and find her chomping on ham, egg and chips. OH GOD, it was tough. Took all my willpower not to nick a chip. I talked about caving and starting again tomorrow and mum said I should - basically by calorie counting against my shakes and have a meal as I'd been so good all day. Could have shot her! It made me really defensive, so I launched into a monologue about getting into ketosis, and me having a meal would just make each day harder in the long run. It's difficult because she lost about three stone on LL and has put it all back on, so I wonder if part of her is a little - not jealous perhaps - but subconsciously doesn't want me to succeed so she doesn't feel as bad about losing her way. I dunno. Feel awful saying it. Anyway... I made it.
Today I had - just so I can look back and see how my taste buds change:
12pm - Strawberry Shake - 4/10... drinkable but only just, made me gag!
7pm - Mushroom Soup - 8/10 - Yum! Really nice with a bit of black pepper
11pm - Toffee, Nut and Raisin Bar - 5/10... not a fan, but got it down - eventually!
Three new flavours tomorrow - trying to work out what I like and what I don't. Might have a coffee vanilla latte for breakfast!
Night all... HONK!
