Time to shape up!



Yesterday at the Ploughmans supper, I didn't do too badly. I steered clear of all bread, and ate all the celery and grapes (with a little pate). However, I did also snack on some crisps and cheese, and it was pretty late. Despite this, I stuck to water all night. So there were ups and downs. However, I snuck onto the scales today to see if this affected me at all, and I seem to have put on 2lbs! I'm really disappointed in myself. I really wanted to lose that second stone before I left for Italy (6 days away), but it seems an impossible task now.

I really have to sort myself out. I started this diet really well, and I'm not even three months in, and I've already been struggling. So from tomorrow, I'm going to do the 7 minute workout every day, and for the next 5 days, I'm steering clear of all bread. I'll have a yoghurt for breakfast, banana for a snack in the day, and a lettuce, cucumber and tomato salad. Then for dinner I'm going to have a couple of pieces of chicken (chicken dippers would be easy), perhaps a bit of bacon, with salad. No potatoes, no pasta, no bread. No dressing. Unfortunately, I can't do this today. I've started with a banana and green tea, but I'm cooking Sunday lunch for 6 people. I'm bulking it out with leeks, carrots, runner beans, broccoli and cauliflower.

I really need to stick to this and try and make a difference.
