I've just had my first meal! I have to say I really enjoyed it..really really really 
The only thing was I couldn't tell at what point I should stop. I tried to eat slowly so that my body could tell me when I was full. I think it must have been the right amount as I feel full-ish now but not over-full. I was also worried about the amount of food as it looked like loads but I followed the refeed sheet. I did substitute half the tuna allowance for an egg (I read here that it's okay to do that) as I had never actually eaten tuna in my life before and 110g(4oz) of tuna just seemed daunting. I decided a long time ago that after I finished LT I would try the foods that I never eat, which is really only fish. I figured if my first meal included tuna then I would eat it just because it's food and that my new taste buds might welcome the new flavour....they did..I loved it!
Here's my plan for the week:
Monday
L: Maintenance bar
D: Handful lettuce, 2 cherry tomatoes, 3 thin slices red onion, 1 red pepper stick, 1" cucumber, 1 boiled egg, 60g tuna, juice of 1/2 lemon, s&p
(can 7-up free - couldn't resist it and it tasted really good, really lemony)
Tuesday
B: Choc shake
L: Handful lettuce, 2 cherry tomatoes, 3 thin slices red onion, 1 red pepper stick, 1" cucumber, 1 boiled egg, 60g tuna, juice of 1/2 lemon, s&p
D: 110g Chicken breast, 2tbsp mangetout
Wednesday

L: Handful lettuce, 2 cherry tomatoes, 3 thin slices red onion, 1 red pepper stick, 1" cucumber, 110g chicken, juice of 1/4 lemon, balsamic vinegar, s&p
D: 110g White fish, 220g potato, 2tbsp magetout
Thursday

Friday

D: 2tsp lf soft cheese, 1tbsp chutney, 2 slices bread
Saturday
B:Choc shake
L&D: Christmas day with the girls, not sure what we'll be having yet but I plan to stick to rules of refeed sheet -ish!!
Sunday
B: Choc shake
L: Handful lettuce, 2 cherry tomatoes, 3 thin slices red onion, 1 red pepper stick, 1" cucumber, 1 boiled egg, juice of 1/2 lemon, s&p
D: 110g brown pasta, whatever is in fridge after week.
Does this look okay? Is it too much? Will I be back to a size 16 at the end of it? I am terrified of putting the weight back on, although I know the theory behind why I won't, my mind just keeps saying that I will. The feeling I have after just having one meal is so nice but this feeling of having food in my stomach makes me feel like the fat is creeping back on...
I really hope this plan is okay. I'm going to go to weight watchers on Wednesday night and then next week I will probably follow ww but still have a shake every morning or at least once a day. Does anyone know what the points are in the shakes?
