New year new thinking new weight
Yup
Here i am again a stone and a half heavier than my last post over 7 months ago!! its scary to think i have put on almost all the weight i have lost.
So yes i guess you could say things have not been going too well.
What has happened to me in the last 7 months? well i lost my job (again!!) was out of work for two months and sat on my ass feeling sorry for myself. Got a new job and a payrise (wohoo finally) and continued to eat like a heifer. So here i am. heavier. unhappy with my weight and determined that this is the year!
I turn 30 in January. i want to lose a stone by my birthday so i have 22 days. If i can do this i know i can set myself up to continue to lose weight steadily through the rest of the year.
so extremes
I am on a 3 day diet with the girls in my office
it is an extreme diet approx 700 cals a day. I know this is not a healthy longterm diet. BUT the whole point of doing this is to prove to myself that i can stick to a diet plan. It is also to see how little i can eat and to determine to myself the difference between eating due to hunger and eating due to boredom/stress/because its there.
If i can complete this diet i will cleanse my palate, get rid of my sugar cravings and give myself a quickstart to eating healthy and excercising
Diet today
Breakfast
1/2 grapefruit
1 slice wholemeal toast + 2tsp low fat peanut butter
Cup of black tea 
Lunch
115g Tuna in springwater
1 slice wholemeal toast
Cup of black tea
Dinner
2 slices cold ham
250g runner bean
1 small apple
115g vanilla icecream 
Cup of black tea
2l water
Planned excercise
30 mins Wii fit (yup i've dusted it off)
30mins walking with the dog
So here it goes
Wish me luck i will need it!
****UPDATE****
it is no 4.30pm and i am starving. i feel lightheaded and fuzzy. I have drank 2 litres of water so i know its not dehydration its hunger! Not suprising considering according to TDP (the daily plate) i have only had 17% of my recommended daily calories.
Still i am going to persevere. I know that 3 days of this is not going to ruin my health permanently. I also know that after 3 days of practical non-eating i will have a healthier respect for food that i do choose to eat! Roll on Thursday.
This plan claims to aid weightloss of 10lb - mostly water probably - but we shall see
