Well that's day 2 cracked and apart from towards the end of the night I didn't particularly feel hungry. The Aloe vera shots get easier and to be honest I don't find them that bad. Every time I shot one I just remind myself of the good it is doing for not only my insides but my skin, hair & nails.
Had the morning tablets with an apple which is actually quite filling. The rest of the day da was quite easy cos I was out on the road so kept busy. The hardest part isn't feeling hungry its habits. I'm used to walking past a Greggs and nipping in for a sausage roll or pie of something. I just have to keep reminding myself that I am doing this because I want to make a change and I'm not happy with how I feel at the mo.
I had some sugar snap peas for one my snacks which filled a gap I guess. Not as enjoyable as a pie or a bag of crisp but I can make do as I know I can have proper food tomorrow.
I can't believe I made arrangements before I started this to go to the theatre and go for dinner first at Tattu in Manchester. I had to cancel dinner and arrange to go straight to the theatre. Gutted. The food there is gorgeous (as my friends remembered to tell me). I've been before and I will go again I had to have willpower and just carry on to achieve my goal. Before I went to the theatre I had a bowl of my free food soup to fill me up, I made it will all the green free stuff that you can have as much of as you like so that I am not going out hungry.
Just looking at the colour of that soup you just know it has to be good for you with all the bright green colour. I purposely didn't over cook the soup as I knew I would be blitzing it anyway to a smooth texture. That way I would hopefully retain more of the goodness. I guess in hindsight I could of steamed the veg?
The one weak point I had today was on the way back from the theatre I felt a grumble in my stomach and my first instinct was to think 'Oh I'll grab a MacDonalds'. I did stay strong however and just drove straight past. It was about 11pm by the time I got home so I just went straight to bed so I wasn't sitting thinking about being hungry lol. I think with me boredom plays a big part in my bad eating habits. If I am just sat watching TV I find it easy to just keep nipping in the kitchen for snacks.
Roll on tomorrow as I can have a protein shake for breakfast as well as I free fruit. PLUS It's 600 Cal evening meal time starting tomorrow. Onwards and upwards.
Oh and I am NOT weighing myself until the last day of the day days. I don't want to obsess over every pound up and down. I will then not weigh again until I complete the next 15 days and reach the end of the 24-day shred. Fingers Crossed I will see a difference and want to take it to the next level. If I make it that far I am going back to the gym again. I know I can get up early as I am up at 5am every Thursday for a my BNI meeting so I will make it a habit and go the gym in the mornings too. I know for sure I do not have the motivation to go at night as I get in from work late some nights and then have about an hours admin to do. I'd rather go first thing and get it out of the way so I don't have time to think up all my excuses why I shouldn't go. :-)
G'night.
