Ok so I went to my parents this weekend and that is the place where dieats go to die. Everyone had a kebab on Friday evening but I opted for tikka chicken and chips, thinking I'd eat the chicken first and then eat some but not all the chips depending on how I felt. Didn't enjoy it at all but was so hungry that I ate the chicken as planned and half the chips! Bad me. Didn't put on any weight though, as checked on Saturday morning but that was only the start of the temptations and I gave up completely trying to count calories as I went to the pub and had steak and ale pie and buttery cabbage and mash. Sorry if this is tempting anyone but I couldn't help myself but eat and eat. So all in all I put 2lb on this weekend, but lost 4 last week in all so got away with it.

Monday 15th April (3rd fast day)

Today I woke up determined to put the weekend behind me. I had a fruit corner yogurt (175 calories) and a pint of water. I'm a teacher so next time I thought about food was break time at 11. Had another glass of water and didn't feel hungry which I was pleased about because I normally have a cup of tea and 2 biscuits at this time every day. Go me! At lunch I kept busy and didn't have anything also, still not feeling hungry. I had a cup of tea as soon as school finished, with very little milk and started to feel hungry at this point. Managed not to eat until 7pm when I had a small bit of chicken curry from last night, instead of the tin of soup I'd planned to have. That definitely won't be over 325 calories if you'd seen the amount I had and I didn't have any rice. Brushed my teeth fifteen minutes later to stop myself being tempted to eat anything else! We'll step on the scales tomorrow (fiancee and I and see the real results of our third fast).
