Day 26 and 27: Cinema and Junk Food

Day 26

Breakfast: Coco pops

Lunch: Mash potatoe and a chicken and mushroom pie, with a taste of chips and cod.

Dinner: A pot of chicken paster

Snacks: Junk!

Drinks: Water

Day 26 was a really bad day. But it got worst when I went to the cinema. I went to see “Woman in Black”, and I really didn’t want to eat the popcorn so I brought myself a pot of pasta and a bottle of water. Even though it’s a 12A, I never realised that it’s quite scary that I kept covering my eyes. I realised from yesterday that I find it easier to watch scary films while eating, maybe it’s comfort eating.  And the only foods that were available to me were what members of my family were eating these included, popcorn, doritos and skittles.

I felt like Michael Jackson in the movie theatre in the Music Video Thriller, where everyone around him is scared to death and he just sits there munching on the popcorn while enjoying the movie. Next time I might have to bring more pasta or salad with me.

Day 27

Breakfast: Coco pops (Not a great diet)

Lunch: Tuna sandwich

Dinner: Chicken, rice and peas, sweetcorn and salad.

Snack: Chicken and sweetcorn sandwich, a hot cross bun ( I really fancied it, I think it’s because of yesterday).

Drinks: Water

Day 22: Too much pancakes

Breakfast: Pancakes and beans.

I thought if I was going to have pancakes, the best time that I should have them would be early in the morning so that I could burn it off during the rest of the day.

Lunch: Salmon salad

Snacks: Left over pancakes

I had 3 pancakes in the morning, but my mid-afternoon, my sister and mother had some pancakes and I could not control myself. I ate 2 pancakes and they weren’t exactly thin.

Dinner: Hot and spicy chicken, salad and wholemeal pitta bread.

I had 2 hot and spicy chicken breasts and took my sisters other half, which I shouldn’t have, but they were sooo nice I couldn’t control myself.

Snacks: Orange

Drinks: Water

Clearly I still need to work on myself control, but I feel that I have cut down a great amount since I’ve started this diet again. I’m weighting myself again tomorrow, so I’m a bit nervous. But I’m hoping I’m around 13st 2lbs so that will mean I would’ve lost 5lbs (Hopefully).

My water diet so far is going very well, and I’m not often thinking about fruit juices.

Day 18: Set back

Lunch: Caesar salad

Snacks: 2 boiled eggs and 2 slices of bread. 1 slice of bread and a yogurt

Dinner: A very small portion of chicken and rice (It was more the portion of a snack)

Snacks: Homemade chocolate cake and banana cake. which equalled the portion size of one slice of cake. ( I couldn’t help myself it was just the smell that was coming from the oven..yum.)

Drinks: Water

It’s not one of my better days, I don’t think that boiled eggs and toast is really a snack. I need to get my act together and work out my meal and snack sizes. And the banana cake and chocolate cake, I don’t really no what to say about that, but hopefully with time, self control will come naturally to me and it will be easy to refuse certain foods.

Too much white bread!

I think I’m eating way to much carbohydrates. So from tomorrow I’m cutting down on white bread, pastries and switching to whole grain bread. I never was a fan of brown bread but if its more healthier in carbohydrates then I’m going to eat it.
