Start weight.. 17stone 11lbs.
Ok today is the day, the first day of the rest of my life. The start of my journey, the new inner or should that be thinner, me.
The breakfast eating, fruit and veg eating, green tea and water drinking, me!!
One day and one pound nearer to my Jasper Conran couture dress, me!!
I have decided to try the dietchef diet, they send you all your food in easy pop in the microwave pouchs and all you add is fruit and veg. Not cheap at £210 a month for the dietchef 1500, but easy and quick and hoping easy to follow.
Having ME and fibro, I find it difficult to cook, so we have really lived the last 18 months on take aways and ready made meals, dont get me wrong..I was a big girl to start with..but being ill certainly hasnt helped and I guess (im guessing as me and scales dont tend to get on) I have put on 3 stones since becoming ill.
Anyway.. breakfast... treacle and pecan granola with WW lemon and lime yogurt.. 146 cals
Lunch (dinner)...Minestrone soup and one slice of wholemeal bread.. 225cals
Dinner (tea)... Coq au vin and veggies.. 384cals
Snacks... Tomato snacks, 1 plum.. 202cals
Grand total... 957 cals.
2 x green tea and three glasses of water.
OK, I am thinking the Cals should be higher, according to the DCwebsite, I should be on nearer 1500 then 1000 cals aday but apart from a fruit snack I have missed out, that is pretty much to the letter of the diet manual so to speak. Mmmm will have to see how that one pans out I recon.
I have never been on a Calorie controlled diet before, I have done WW and SW but never CC..so it is all new territory to me and I guess I will be learning fast, when my tummy starts rumbling!!
So at the end of day one, I feel slighty hungry (I think thats because my mind is shouting out. arrgghhh i'm on a diet, give me chips, give me chips) but I dont feel like I have missed out on anything in perticular. I'm going to the loo every five mins (drinking water), have chronic heartburn (acid from fruit) and wind..(yes I know) but other then that its all good.
Well if things carry on like this, we may well just be OK.
Here's to day two!!
NO mind, we don't need chips...GO AWAY!!!!!
