DAY THREE

Weight: 99.3kilos!!!

I am really pleased with this start as my period commenced on the same day. I retain water like a reservoir so it is always swings and roundabouts each month as my cycle progresses. And yes, I am a 50 something, but showing almost no signs of being menopausal as yet..........a hint of deviation from the usual 30 days but they still show up like clockwork most months! I do get down in the dumps pre periods and can be weepy and fragile and not at all the happy bunny I chose to believe I am 99.9% of the time. But nothing more than that (so far).

I had a good day yesterday. A few polos were irresistible in the evening because I stayed up later than normal waiting for a phone call, and my tummy was rumbling. Apart from that I stuck to the diet well.
And this loss is encouraging!
So todays plan looks like more of the same:

breakfast:         mixed plain & activia yogurts. huge mug of milky decaf with skimmed milk. I whizz it up so that it resembles a latte and makes it more delicious looking. Tastes fine too.
mid-morning:   I got up late so this is my mid morning already!!!
lunch:                cottage cheese with tuna.
mid-afternoon: skinny latte.
dinner:              cottage cheese with tuna.
evening:            coffee or tea.

I have a very low budget for my food each week so it probably all sounds incredibly boring, but it helps me to stick to simple sameness for a few days before I progress to the next stage of the diet when I can add in  the necessary veggies. My first goal is to have lost some weight before next Tuesday when I have a meeting and Thursday when I will be working. If my jeans are less tight by then I will give a loud yey!!!
