Third of the way there!

I have not felt deprived in any way doing 5:2. I quite enjoy the fast days, and skipping breakfast and lunch to save all my calories for dinner suits my lifestyle. I find I enjoy chocolate and cake a lot more now because I don't eat them all the time. In general my food choices are better too. On non-fast days I have a fresh fruit salad for breakfast (something I was already doing before 5:2), usually a sandwich for lunch and whatever the rest of the family is eating for dinner. I seem to have lost my desire to snack (I guess seeing the weight come off provides pretty good motivation!) but if I do, it's usually raw unsalted nuts or dried apricots. I do have treats as well - in the past week some delicious chocolate raspberry cake that my daughter made, and a big chunk of my favourite chocolate. Also salmon prawn pizza and a good half bottle of my favourite Sauvignon blanc. And I lost 0.8 kg (1.8 pounds I think)!
