My Diet - Day 58, 59 & 60

Wednesday 14th November 2012

Breakfast: Ham & Egg

Lunch: Cinnamon Oat Bran Pancake

Dinner: Chicken Curry

I went for an early walk today, I'm getting boring as I only seem to go walking en route to the station with my son these days. However, it's a walk so ...  35:47 minutes, covering 2.02 miles and burning off (hopefully the rest of the birthday cake I stuffed yesterday) 146 calories, yes I couldn't resist yet another piece of birthday cake, but on the other hand it has now all been eaten so no more temptation.


Tomorrow is my marathon cinema day when I go to see all the Twilight films finishing with the new one starting at midnight, I can't wait, but it will be a challenge to see if I can decide what snack foods to take with me.

Twilight Day :)

Breakfast: Scrambled Egg

Lunch: Left over Chilli Con Carne/Shepherds Pie

Dinner: Sticky Chicken Salad

Snack: Oat Bran Chocolate Brownie

Although I was working 1st thing this morning, I still managed to get a walk in before my marathon cinema day.  I was out for 38:45 minutes covering 2 miles. Then I'm afraid the rest of my day and night was taken up with Twilight.

Friday 16th November 2012

Well yesterday went really well, I ate exactly what I'd planned to eat.

Amazing night

It was a long day/night, watching all 5 Twilight films on the trot, but so worth it.

Breakfast: Cinnamon & Goji Berry Oat Bran Porridge

Lunch: Grilled Peppered Mackerel

Dinner: Asian Meatballs 

Snack: Low Fat Yoghurt 
 


I didn't manage to get a walk in today, I've had the time it's just I'm pretty tired from getting in at 2.45 this morning and then waking up at 7am, 4 hrs sleep really not enough.

My Diet - Day 54 & 55

Saturday 10th November 2012

Breakfast: Vanilla Oat Bran Porridge

Lunch: Natural Yoghurt, with Vanilla essence

Dinner: Mustard Salmon

Snack: Chocolate Mousse

Today I am doing a 2nd, on the trot, day of protein only, this is not in the hope of losing extra pounds (although that is always welcome) it is because next week I need Sunday, Tuesday & Thursday to be Protein & Veg days. I am going for an Indian Meal on Sunday evening, so a lot easier if I can have veg too. Tuesday is my birthday so I don't want too much restriction & on Thursday I am going to the cinema from 2.45pm to 3am (honestly) I am going to see the Twilight Films, all 6 of them, one after the other, finishing with the new film starting at midnight. I did this last year also and it was great, but you do need to take food with you, hence wanting the day to be PV.

I wanted to have reached my 1st goal weight by my birthday, I don't think I'll do it but I wont be far off, so am reasonably happy with that.

I have to say, I have never had any bad reactions to this diet, I haven't felt bloated once. It definitely does me good to not eat bread, I',m sure that is what was bloating me out before. I haven't missed potatoes at all, I love my shepherds pie with different "mash" on top, so far I've had mashed Swede, Pumpkin & Butternut Squash - all very tasty. On the whole I have not felt hungry between meals, there has been the odd time but usually because I've had to delay my meal time because of work or some other commitment.  I don't miss alcohol, but then I've never drank an awful lot of it anyway, my OH has had some now and then but has reduced his intake of alcohol significantly. He is looking so much trimmer now it's actually wonderful to see.

Sunday 11th November 2012

I had a busy Sunday, but unfortunately nothing much that would burn off calories.

Breakfast: 2 x Boiled Eggs, Turkey Bacon (cut in soldiers)

Lunch: Shepherds Pie with Swede Mash

Snack: Chocolate Brownie

Dinner: Indian Meal (Sheek Kebab & Salad to start, Chicken Shishlak (skewered chicken with peppers, onion & tomatoes)

Dessert: Very small slice of my birthday cake, which was carrot cake, with kitkats around the edge & M&M's on top. (The picture is of what was left after it was shared amongst 9 of us)

I know I shouldn't have had the cake but it was made especially for me so I did and I don't regret it. My sister had already brought me a birthday cake over earlier in the day and I did not have any of it, so overall I think I did well & it's not even my birthday yet :)
