Well, i thought it was time I started a diary - should have started on day 1 and its now day 26 but hey ho!
Well, I'm now well into SS and have lost 13lbs in 3 weeks. I am hoping for another couple of pounds this week when I get weighed on Tuesday.
I'm 35 years old, married, with a 2 yr old boy. I work part-time and currently dont have much spare time for hobbies!
Anyway, I must say that this diet has definitely got easier over time- I now think much less about food and it has become almost a way of life.
I start aam on Tuesday evening and I'm so looking forward to eating something! Not just for the sake of eating but also the social aspect - it means I can join in with the family and not tell my toddler that "mummy ate her tea in the kitchen" every time he quizzes me about why i'm not eating with him!
Went to McDonalds today with my husband and toddler for a treat (well, their treat not mine!) I had a black tea while they tucked in and it didnt really bother me. I dont try to avoid situations like that as i want to carry on as normally as possible!
I've also been cooking more than nigella lawson! I've made things from scratch such as meatballs and pasta and baked muffins, chelsea buns, chocolate chip cookies! I dont know what is wrong with me! I dont feel tempted by them its almost like i'm vicariously eating by cooking them! lol
Like most of you, I've done every diet under the sun and yo-yo ed most of my life. However, this really is the first diet i have done where i feel confident that i will reach the end. Its absolutely fantastic and the best thing is that you really dont feel hungry with it. With other diets i have always felt hungry.
Another positive point for me is the psychological aspect of this diet - it has really broken the destructive relationship that i had with food previously. i really feel that when i do return to a "normal" diet, it will be exactly that.....normal!
Thanks for listening.
