Week 2, Day 12 (Sunday)
Well Sundays, I love em! A chilled start to the morning. Had a good sleep.
I always used to get up a couple of times a night to pee. Never really drank particularly late so never pin pointed why. Well interestingly enough, although I was on a huge amount more water through abstinence, I stopped peeing through the night. Well, now that I am eating again, I am back to getting up through the night to pee - interesting!
Had my usual this morning. Ramekin of fat free yoghurt, crumbled warm peanut bar and skinny latte - lovely!
My nephew & I then walked to Next and Matalan to do some bits and pieces of shopping.
On my return I made a salad bowl and finished the lil bit of mushroom salad I made for last night's dinner and a teaspoon of tzatziki on top.
We watched Twilight - I do love that film! I had a vanilla/coffee shake - 1000mls of water in those certainly fills me up now. Difficult situation as I cannot do them thicker but it fills me up too much! Really looking forward to dropping down to two foodpacks a day on Weds. Will be peanut bar for breakfast and shake mid afternoon.
Rik got home and sister & bro in law arrived to collect nephew. Had a skinny latte and a chat with them. When they went home Rik & I went shopping to get some bits for the week.
After shopping I sat down and had a chat with Rik and enjoyed a green tea with orange & lotusflower - really enjoying these teas.
I made a huge bowl of salad for the next couple of days. A real good mix of leaves: rocket, baby spinach, romane lettuce, iceburgh lettuce, watercress, pea-shoots, white cabbage and red cabbage. Shredded it all into the bowl and gave it a big mix up. I put a portion in a cereal bowl and added chopped red/green & yellow pepper, celery, radish, courgette, cucumber & mange tout - looked fabulous - a real rainbow salad.
I made a fresh bit of mushroom salad (from week 1-4 book) I used fresh coriander this time - made the world of difference - added a good spoonful to my plate.
I then topped my salad with a fresh smoked trout fillet (85 cals), some fresh prawns (64cals) mixed with some l/f thousand island dressing topped with a pinch of smoked paprika and a dessert spoon of l/f cottage cheese.
Tonight's dinner looked lovely!
I shall shortly have some s/f jelly & a 150g pot of of Total Greek 0%. I have been much better with my yoghurt today. Have decided not to have it at lunch time and portion it in a ramekin for breakfast and after dinner.
I have had two cans of diet pepsi today. Enjoyed them both but would like not to have that much so shall not do that again. It isn't something I really had that often before so think it is just the novelty.
I have my long day working in London tomorrow so I have measured out my yoghurt into a small tuperware box and will add my warm, crumbled peanut bar in the morning to have on my train journey. I have prepared a salad box to have at lunch time. I will take a shake to have before I leave there late afternoon. I will have to have my other shake and dinner when I get home which is rather late on a Monday but it will all work itself out.
I have my shake to have tonight. Going to try a chocolate one again - first time in ages. Will whiz it up in my Kenwood - that may make it better!
I feel back fully in control today. Not that I really felt out of control for the last couple of days but felt a lil obssessive about yoghurt! Got over that and adult is back.
