Well, after an absolute horrible past 4 days on 810 i have decided to move on upto 1000kcal.
There's good reason i think...i had been getting dreadful dizziness and insatiable hunger. I was miserable and snappy with my family, which is very unlike me.
The crunch came last night in bed when i couldn't sleep because of hunger pangs, i really felt like crying because i felt like i'd failed:cry:
So came downstairs read a few threads on the 1000kcal plan and started to feel a lot better. I ate a banana which tasted like heaven after 13 weeks of no fruit. Job done my hunger was satisfied and i snuck back in bed and slept soundly.
My plan was to continue 810 until goal but i think my body had just had enough of it. It wants real food!! My Bmi is currently around 26 and ideally i'd like to lose at least another stone to get to my goal weight of 10 stone. I'm hoping that i will succeed with this step.
Will inform my CDC on Monday, i know that she is away this weekend and i don't want to disturb her.
So today's meal plan is something like this
AM: Choc Orange Shake
Mid AM: Banana with strawberries
Lunch: Green salad with a small dollop of L/FCottage Cheese
Mid Afternoon: Cranberry Bar
Dinner: Grilled Chicken breast with new potatoes or cous-cous (not sure yet) veg and small amount of L/F cottage cheese. Piece of fruit for dessert.
Also 1/2 pt Skimmed Milk which i've added to coffee.
Can someone read over it and tell me if thats ok.
Also if somebody wouldn't mind answering. I saw in the book that we can have Zero calorie drinks. I've had a glass of Coke Zero today...is that ok?
And can i add a fat free dressing to salads?
