After having some success with Calorie counting and Slimfast, I have hit a wall. Therefore starting today I'm embarking on a super healthy eating regime, to finally get a body I'm proud of - here goes

18/9/11- Sunday (I really eased myself in I must admit)

*Two slices of Bergen toast, with low fat spread
*Bowl of shreddies (large) with skimmed milk and honey
*Half a pot of onion soup
*Three thai chicken breast mini fillets
*A small salad of cherry tomatos and cumcumber
*A large portion of brown rice, with sweet chilli sauce
*A small portion of choc drops

*5 cups of tea, three with milk

Exercise:

*Unless I can count walking around the shops: none
 
Day two - Monday 19/9/11

Breakie

Small bowl of porridge made with water (bleugh)
Portion of raspberries

Snack

A dozen almonds and handful of sunflower seeds

Lunch

Small tin of tuna in spring water
Salad of cucumber, tomato, pickles onions, sweetcorn, boiled potatos and balsamic vinegar

Snack

Small banana

Dinner

Salmon Fillet
Brown rice
Cucumber
Cherry toms
Soy sauce

Snack

6 shreddies (yes really)
Glass of orange juice

Exercise

Walked for an hour
10 mins of swimming (i hate swimming)

I found today quite hard. I am trying to eat 'clean' at the moment which involves cutting out all processed foods, meat and dairy. The hardest part though is cutting out caffiene - today I was plauged by intermitent headaches and extreme tiredness - I'm hoping this will pass though.

Tomorrow isn't going to be a perfect day as I am on a work 'away day' so there will be sandwiches on offer but I've planned a healthy breakfast, snacks and dinner so I hope the damage will be minimal.

I know it's wrong but I do think that if I don't finish the day absolutly starving then I've eaten too much in the day and therefore failed! I don't feel hungry at the moment, but I'm hoping I'll be proved wrong by a loss on friday. Anything 9st 7 or below I would be over the moon with...however after a disgusting weekend (Burger King anyone? no, what about chips, fishcake and mushy peas? you get the picture) I'm a little bit nervous.

So I guess on reflection these last two days haven't been great. I'm getting quite good at controlling the amount of food I eat, but what with the cake/fruit gums/celebrations, I'm not really developing healthy and sustainable eating habits. Nevertheless, onwards and upwards, going to try and have a chocolate/cake/sweetie free day tomorrow, and see how I get on.

One of the things I have found quite positive this week is giving up caffeine. Now I am a bit of a caffeine fiend, so have suffered quite badly this week with headaches, tiredless and generally being a grumpy mare - what I have found though, is that I am a lot less hungry than I was - plus I'm saving money and calories on my daily venti skinny latte. Now just to kick my sugar habit, and i'll be there. Addictive personality much?
