And Today I weighed 16stone. Not surprising with everything I've eaten and drunk recently but amazingly enough even though I'm half a stone heavier than this time last year I don't measure as big!
Well I’ve got 5 and a half stone to lose I’ve pretty much tried everything and what jumped out at me doing my shopping in Tesco on Friday was Paul McKenna’s “I can make you thin.” I don’t want to be thin thank you very much but I do want to be healthy.
It’s so simple
Eat when you’re REALLY hungry
Eat What you really want
Eat consciously
Stop When You’re Full
Drink Water
So I have officially resigned from the clean plate club. (Yup I was indoctrinated with starving kids in Africa)
I start today but have been practicing. It’s very difficult to concentrate specifically on what you’re eating. Meals around the table in our house are always filled with chat and banter. I had a bacon butty on Saturday – in front of the telly but not watching it. Concentrating on every mouthful and chewing really slowly it was the best bacon butty I’ve ever tasted. I had veg curry and a baked spud Saturday night. The texture of this meal mad it difficult to chew but I did appreciate the flavours more. Yesterda we had a carvery lunch for my Mum's birthdayI really struggled – to finish – in fact I didn’t which is a first and progress.
There’s a lot of psychological stuff in the book that explain lots of my reasons for overeating. I’ve loaded the CD onto my phone which basically translated is my ipod.
There’s a big thing about not weighing yourself for 2 weeks which I will find hard. There’s also a 90 day journal which I intend to post on here.
Feeling very, very positive.
