Wotcha Fellow Fmuckers
WARNING - GUSHING RAVE ALERT!!
I've been out by myself on the bike again this morning. Yes, I braved rain and major mud splatters on my (mudguardless) machine because that is how committed I have become to kick starting my diet. Impressive or what?
I did the same 22 miles as the last two days, but I started at the other end, to make it seem like it was different. If nobody understands that last sentence I wouldn't be surprised. Just think B to A to B rather than A to B to A . Yeah?
.
They say "there is no such thing as bad weather only inadequate clothing" and I must say my inadequate shorts, top and mesh trainers were sopping wet in about five minutes flat. I pressed on regardless though - Once you are wet, you are wet! - it's not going to get any worse. I felt I was like Sir Ranulph Fiennes (but obviously with more personality)
I know this is going to sound crazy and self-indulgent (but in my current frame of mind, I certainly won't let that stop me!!
) but I could actually
feel that I had lost some body mass around my middle over the last few days - I got weighed when I got back home, and it was true. Yay! Ok just a couple of pounds shed, but I was impressed considering that it was just since last Wednesday.
To say that I feel elated at the moment would not be an exaggeration and I'm even more committed to eating sensibly now and getting back to where I was weight-wise in October of last year, and ultimately to try for even more.
Today's Meals - (I'm conscious that I basically have almost the same menu every day at the moment, but I really do like it!)
1. Porridge, skimmed milk, blackberries.
2. Crunchy Salad Leaves plus salami, tomato, hummus, celery, chopped peppers.
3. Beans on toast with HP sauce.
4. Something snacky - not sure what yet!
5. E G Tea, Toast and Preston's "Improved" Courgette, Basil and Feta soup. No peas or mint leaves were harmed during the making of this soup!
Copious amounts of Water throughout the day!!
Have a great day everyone! Oh hang on......was that the door?.......probably the postie and assorted neighbours back and pleading for more of my soup!!
And...I hope that you don't mind me mentioning this, but I was quite shocked to see how few calories your meals contained over the last couple of days. I thought 1200 was considered an absolute minimum and your's were less than that. I do hope that you are not starving yourself - you naughty thing!
Sorry if all that sounds like a lecture - it's just that ....well you know!!
I do take on board what you're saying and as you know me well enough by now I certainly won't be offended by anything you say. We will all get there together 
but my body will be cleansed 
as eating rubbish and not enough water - I could try and blame my hormones but in my heart of hearts I know it is because of the rubbish I've been eating
