Yesterday was a fast day, and I managed to stick to it during the day. I did snack a very little around dinner though, so while still a very low calorie day I did slightly exceed the 500 - not by much though.
Today was a food day, and I was determined not to go off the rails. To help myself I have a few strategies:
1) no change in my purse so I can't raid the vending machine - this technique worked out today, as I got as far as checking my car for change and didn't have enough to buy chocolate with, a fact I was pleased about later.
2) no going out shopping so I can't make change, buy food on my credit card, or be tempted by all the takeaways on the High Street.
3) bring planned meals & snacks so there's no reason to feel hungry or have to think about what to eat.
Breakfast: gf oats & buckwheat flakes, Goji berries & raisins soaked overnight in a mixture of water & skim milk then mixed with whey, flax, blueberries, dessicated coconut, and flaked almonds
Snack: raw smoothie of strawberries, kale, avocado & mint
Lunch: raw soup of bok choy, kale, romaine, cucumber, avocado & miso
Snack: same as lunch
Dinner: basil tofu with salad (cumin slaw in coconut miso dressing from Ani Phyo's Fat Blaster book)
Plus an apple & a pear in the morning, and a few nuts in the evening.
I also need to incorporate some exercise, which I've been very very bad about lately... so today, in sets throughout the morning, I did 81 pushups.
