Well, I did mention in my previous blog that I had a wobbly start to this, what with plans of going out etc., and that I had in fact put on weight five days ago.
Despite this, I stuck rigidly to the diet (certainly didn't eat any MORE than I should have, although I may have missed a couple of pieces of fruit here and there!)
I actually quite enjoyed this diet. Although sometimes it said 'rice and mushrooms', I personalised this slightly by making the thai rice that I enjoy so much, and pasta was 'pasta bake' instead. It really didn't make much difference in nutritional value, but made it much tastier. I also really enjoyed being able to eat bread, and having nice sandwiches for lunch.
I weighed in this morning at 15 stone and 3lbs! So despite putting on a lb half way through, I did in fact lose weight after that and lost 2lbs from last week. I'm thrilled with this, as I still didn't show any motivation to do workouts, so this is purely sorting out my diet now, and I'm much happier with this. I only need to lose 5 more pounds to have got to the 3 stone mark. If I manage to continue the way that I am, I think I can do that in about two weeks.
Today is my day off, full of sins!! We are having a Chinese takeaway tonight so I might try to fit in a workout so I don't have to feel quite so guilty about it, then I'm starting back up tomorrow, back on the zero hunger diet, and see how it goes.
I start work next Monday, which is towards the end of my diet, so that will change things entirely. I will have to review how I get on when being back at work, and what I can do to try to sustain all the good things that are happening here. Other things that are happening this week whilst on my diet: tomorrow night I'm going out for a meal with friends, and next Tuesday I'm going for dinner with friends as well, most likely a curry! I may try to change plans so that I cook at home instead, so I'm a bit more careful about what I'm eating, and cook from home instead.
