5 days in and I'm feeling good. I had a meeting early this morning so I packed up my little lunch bag with everything I needed including my mid-morning/lunch stuff etc in case the meeting went on for longer than an hour or so.
The is now my packed lunch bag that goes everywhere with me....
I've also found these water bottle in M&S and I think Boots also sell them. They have been created by Jayden Smith (Will Smiths son) and are made of paper but the lid is made from plant-based plastic. Not only do I like the face that it is helping reduce all the plastic bottles going to landfill or polluting the world's oceans, it also means you don't get all the chemicals from the clear plastic bottles leaching back into the water.
My friend Jenna has started on the 9 day cleanse phase of the programme with me (is it program or programme? is there a difference, I never know. I think I do program cos its shorter lol). Anyway, I promised her I would make out 600 cal meal tonight and have it ready for her when she finished work at the salon. So I whipped up a chicken dinner with lots of the free veg and ONE potato each and a bit of chicken gravy.
I know I made it and I'm not blowing my own trumpet (now THAT would be a party piece lol) but it DID taste amazing. I think that was more to do with the fact that I had been looking forward to it all day.
I had forgotten to have my protein shake at lunchtime because the day ran away with itself and before I knew it I was prepping dinner. SO as a treat to myself for my bedtime drink warmed up some skimmed milk and hard my shake warmed with some cinnamon on top (a little Emma Cooper tip).
Day 5 DONE !
