15.04 Fast Day

by GMH on 15 Apr 2013, 07:52

Woken by dogs @ 2.50am and never got back to sleep...5am had veggie soup for brekky. I am seriously loving this soup and I must take to having it for lunch on feed days, filling, healthy & delish. Might add a slice of toast on feed days. Lots of black coffee throughout the day and an 8 cal hot choc with a dash of milk after work. Walked for about 2 hours today.

When I woke I was suffering from 'doubting Thomas'. Maybe my scales are weighing light, maybe I haven't really lost that much weight, maybe it's water loss, weighing after fast...hmmm even decided that my shorts were tight (straight out of the wash - by days end all most falling off me :shock: )I had tried on some clothes after the weekend and nothing seemed very loose. However the clothes I have been wearing, have been crying at the seams, so now they are sighing with relief. The 'old' clothes, well they are seriously skinny jeans, the fact I can even do the zips up is nothing short of miraculous, even if I can't sit down and bend my knees, but throw myself sideways and hope I land in the chair :bugeyes: As the day wore on I realised that not only were my shorts loose, but the truth about my 'fantasy dress up' over the weekend was comparing oranges & apples...or dumplings & skinny milk :razz: So now I feel better and look forward to weighing in, Friday.

Felt quite hungry today and I am once again a bit stumped as to what to have for dinner. I have had an entree of veggie soup (60 cals)...that means so far today I have had about 160 cals, so 340 left. Maybe a swiss brown mushroom & rocket omelette (1 egg)dash of cheese. Then dessert of either a choc fudge mini protein bar or some Gippsland plain yoghurt....hmm I think the choc might win out :grin:

Might finish the night off with another 8 cal hot choc. Looking forward to breakfast :oops:

DONT GIVE UP!...and eat more veggies

Me too. We're having boiled eggs with soldiers for tea. No butter for me. Bring it on. I'm starving!
