So yesterday was no where near as bad as I thought it would be. I never felt starving, the worse effect was that come 6pm I was so tired. I picked a sheperds pie meal pack to have as my evening meal yesterday but found it quite tramatic! I had hoped for more than the pack could offer. I was hoping that my late evening hot chocolate would be a nice enjoyable end to the day but found that I had to knock it down like medicine.
I only had one temptation yesterday and that was a big slab of cake in the cupboard at work. Normally on a night shift I would have said 'oh I will have a bit of that later (with a big grin)' but I had to stop and think that I can't always say yes to everything!
I was just about to go to sleep last night when I stopped and thought 'I've done it!' day one is over, and even with some manky food packs, it wasn't even that bad!
Day two had a great start as I normally wake up feeling slow (to say the least), but this morning I was up, alert and off! I think some of this has to be because my stomach isn't full of food it's trying to process. I had a banana shake for breakfast which was ok and minestrone for lunch which was rather enjoyable! I've just had my evening food pack of spicy curry, and although lovely, I don't think my tummy can take that much spice very frequently.
But the best part of this post has to be that, when I went to see my LL counsellor to get rid of the dreaded sheperds pie, she encouraged me to get weighed. I was so happy to see that I have lost 5.2pounds already! Onwards and upwards now.
