Ok! on to week 2! this is my third fast and I have just eaten my lunch of ham egg and goats cheese salad.

I hopped onto the scales this morning and at first was dissapointed as I had just lost 1lb - then I remembered I ate like a pig for 5 days and had beautiful home made fried chicken last night so its not all bad and a pound is ok. I thought as it was my first week I may lose more but that pound is more than I have lost in the 3 weeks previous as I had just hit a plateau

Lunch
Salad with finely chopped olives, ham and goats cheese
255

Dinner

Courgette pizza boats topped with olives, goats cheese mushrooms and red onions with spicy butternut squash wedges and salad

248

snacks/drinks
highlight - 40 - need chocolate and also having mega hunger pangs - hoping this will calm them down.

Total - 543 - averaging 1,600 - 1,800 calories on a feed day so not concerned about going slightly over today.

Went to my mums for the weekend, I didn't eat like a pig but I am definatley looking forward to my fast day today - which is weird I didn't think I would start looking forward to these days. somebody last night was surprised I was carrying on with 5:2 over Christmas but why wouldn't I? its flexible and it fits in.

couldn't weigh myself in boots today as the machine was out of order AGAIN!?! I did weigh myself at mum's and i'm 7lbs lighter than when I last weighed myself on her scales so its all good

* today is going well so far (3pm) I decided not to eat breakfast and had my lunch at 1.30 - I ate it slowly with a big glass of fizzy water to wash it down and I still feel nice and full.

* im sitting as over on my calories today but i'm not too concerned as I was under my 2k yesterday and plan to be so each day by aiming to eat 1,800 kcals a day.
