Day One, off to a cracking start...

So that's day one over with, how do I feel? Well it was a lot easier than I thought it would be in some ways and harder in others. For starters breakfast was lovely, I had bacon, eggs and mushrooms, and I even managed to sit down at the kitchen table to eat it! Lunch was tuna nicoise salad and after it I did feel really tired and whacked out but I drank lots of water and that seemed to help. Dinner was rump steak with avocado salad and blue cheese dressing. If I'm honest I think I over did the dressing a bit, well actually quite a lot, and the recipe in the book seemed to make tons or maybe I just made enough to feed a small army as usual! I've saved the rest, hoping it will keep until tomorrow. I completely failed to do my walk so will have to do twice as much on day two. I also did feel a bit hungry in the evening, mainly due I think to having dinner early with the boys as hubby was home with us. So I had a small snack of some cheese and a handful of nuts. It really doesn't feel much like a diet at all, in fact I felt quite shocked at the amount of calories I must have consumed just by lunchtime and I have never eaten so many eggs in one day! It was made worse by catching a reflection of myself in the window of Next today, something that I avoid normally. Was having a fat day as it was, really didn't need that! Coming home and tucking into a big fat steak with creamy peppercorn sauce didn't help really. Hubby is moaning about the lack of fruit and is missing his Activia yogurts (apparently) I have told him several times he can't have fruit but he keeps asking for it. I too missed it a bit today, I was actually quite glad I didn't get asked to cut up the fruit at pre-school this morning as I think I would have found myself salivating over the children's apple and banana and may well have wrestled one of them for it! I am keeping the faith though, bring on day two...
