What a weird week was week2. Didn't stray off plan and second week without bread, sweets, biscuits, cakes and other refined foods. Am I happy ?.....well yes. Lost 10lbs in first week and set myself up for more pressure this week for 7lbs weight loss. What are the things I notice already? More energy walking the dog and already feeling better. Not as lethargic as before. Some old clothes fitting already. Some people noticing weight loss already.
Now onto struggles - feeling hungry between meals more so than week1. Still making right food choices though. A slight bit of boredom with food and repetitive meals - but that's my fault really.
Depressed that it's my mates 40th tomorrow and they are all going out on the piss all day and I can't join them until after they have eaten and then I will be on diet coke.
But overall I feel better and motivated. My mind has finally been switched on. I Wang quick results but know that I will lose weight but need to keep it off. The behavioural triggers will need careful addressing.
Top tips. Concentrate on the mouth feel when you are eating. Dont just shovel the food in when hungry - instead enjoy the mouth feel and flavours.
Top tip2....unpeel a bananna, wrap it back in it's skin. Cover with foil and put in freezer. It is like a banana lolly and feels like a treat
