I kind of knew, but not why.
It is so ridiculous that vital information in what is good for you, how to loose weight etc etc is not available freely and honestly.
If you search on the web, half of it is just untrue and the other half just wants to make money so they only tell you half you need to know.

So if it breaks down the vitals what does that mean happens to your body? Stores more fat or ? and How Long Should You Not Drink For Before and After You Eat!

I wouldn't drink for 20 minutes before eating if possible. If it's not breaking down properly then the nutrients aren't getting to where they should be going and it would just be empty calories

Oh! Thanks For That! I Was Always Drinking Water With Food, Thinking It Was Good For Me!!
To wrap up my day.
I lunched again with a wholegrain sandwich with mustard, a little ketchup, margerine, lettuce, tomato, cucumber, gherkin and 3 self cut slices of cathedral extra mature. I have half a pack of blue berries and an apple with it.
Around 3-ish I got hungry and ate my other sandwich. Same topping only tartex instead of cheese.
For dinner we had adzuki bean dal and a mixed vegetable stew with 4 chapati's. I had a 20 minute evening workout. Just now at 10pm I was hungry again so I ate a slice of ryebread with philidephia spread and some dill.
I think I am full up now.
I had a massive craving for crisps right after dinner. I was lounging on the sofa watching Dr. Phil
and I couldn't stop thinking about crisps. I actually got up like I always do to search for things.
I realised I was very cold, not hungry so I got back to the sofa, covered myself with a comfy blanket and waited 20 minutes if I would still crave the crisps. I didn't.
Another junk food victory for me!

Hi there
Just wanted to say good luck with your journey. You have a good attitude to start. And well done resisting the crisps. I am calorie counting, but also doing a cognitive behaviour therapy programme which is called the Beck Diet solution, and basically she gives you a task every day that you work on, like for instance, not eating standing up!! (you wouldnt believe how much you do eat standing up!!) but the reason Im saying this is not to sell the book (lol), she talks about cravings, which are a huge problem for me, being an emotional eater, and she says the more you resist a craving the more you are strengthening your "resistance muscle" and the more you will be able to resist junk or cravings, so you did that last night with the crisps.
Anyway, will keep up with your journey, you can do it.

Yesterday,
For morning and lunch I had half a baquette with my usual topping (tomato, lettuce, cucumber, ketchup, mustard, cheese)
I had one for lunch and I had one for breakfast.
For dinner I had the same thing but as a sandwich with some patra and a puran puri.
Overal I have not been really hungry all day. I started listening to that Paul McKenna cd. Perhaps that's working. I had no cravings at all yesterday, not even when I went to the supermarket.
That usually is a MAJOR problem for me. I was very thirsty when I went shopping at it had been over 5 hours since I last ate. I got a lot of diet soda's but didn't even think about cookies or crisps. Well I did think about them later, but only because I did not think about it in the store.
No exercise yesterday. My mother in law is here and I am not ready to let anyone else but my husband see me work up a sweat.
I feel good today.

Yeah I Dont Think I Will Reveal Myself Til Xmas
I am planning on weighing myself tomorrow morning. I still need to buy a measuring tape, so that will be next week until I have hopefully some results.
I have always avoided being photographed. I have 1 picture from October 2007, my wedding puctures. I so hate the way I look on those and according to my husband I am even heavier now.
I kind of never notice how big I really am. Had a discussion with my dearest about that the other day. I think I have a distorted body image. Just like those annorexian girls only the other way around. I don't really see myself as fat as I really am. Only when I look at pictures of myself, knowing that's me, I realise just how bad it is.
Odd right?
