17 Day Diet - Day One

Woo Hoo! Diet Starts TODAY!!

Today will be interesting with only 4 hours of sleep under my belt. All Blacks beat Australia in Rugby World Cup Semi Finals. Too amped to sleep!!

Breakfast:

2 Whole Eggs - Microwaved
1 Green Tea

It was a rushed morning, it's all I had together at the time, because I didn't actually do my shopping till the night time.
30 mins later I was STARVING!! So I drank 750ml of water, so thats 3 glasses. Each glass filled me up till I decided it was lunch time.

Lunch:

1 small can of Chicken
1TBS of lite mayo
1 TBS of lite dressing
100g pack of salad (leaves, 2 tiny slices of cucumber and capsicum and bean sprouts)
1 Green Tea

It was a good salad, a bought one as I still hadn't done my shopping. I added the can of chicken. But again about 30 mins later I was starving again! So down goes another 750ml of water - total 6 glasses.

Snack:

100ml Probiotic Drink
1 Apple
1 Orange

I had to do it all in the snack cause I was sooo hungry. Drank another 750ml of water. I was peeing so much! So that is 9 glasses today plus the 2 glasses of Green Tea.

Finished work and I head straight to the grocery store to get my groceries.

I was stunned at how much of the grocery store I didn't even enter, because I didn't need to get food from there! My groceries for the week cost me about $130 (not ideal) especially because I am so hungry, I hope my body gets used to the meal plan fast!!!

Dinner:

1/4 head of Broccoli
1 Carrot
1/2 Capsicum
2 large Butterfish Fillets

This meal I couldn't even finish. I ate all my veges but only one fish fillet. I WAS SOOO FULL! I was thinking "Oh Yeah So Awesome! This isn't going to be so bad!!!"

I needed something sweet after dinner because I don't like having a savoury mouth.

Dessert/Snack:

1 serving tub of Probiotic Yoghurt

All was well, I have church group on Mondays where there is always goodies to munch on so I shoved the yoghurt down to fix me for the sweet even though I was so full.

ONE HOUR LATER - STARVING!!!

While everyone around me was eating all of my favourites. It was mental, like seriously how did this happen! Did they secretly plan the menu!!!???

Supper of which I did not eat:

Banana and Walnut Cake
Ice Cream
Fruit and Nut Chocolate.


Seriously anyone who knows me KNOWS they are my favourite foods!!!


Alas, I was asked if I wanted any, I politely said no and I got some quizzical looks (Courtney.. Not eating Cake Chocolate and Ice Cream!?! Is she on her death bed?)

So I told them "Nooo, I'm trying out healthy eating, plus it's too late to be eating now (10.30pm) It's OK :)"

And you know what, after telling everyone and making it public I could not have it, it made it easier not eating it because I wasn't having an internal battle with myself "They don't know I'm on a diet so I can eat and no one will know but me... You have been so good all day!!!... It's your favourites so its a sign!!!"

After telling them I was thinking "Well it's out there, if I ate now I would just look weak and like a fatty, I have too much dignity for that!... :|"

So I drank more Green Tea and Water and went to bed feeling full and fine

Till I WOKE UP!
