I planned for today to be over on calories, I planned to have more food today. I did this because Sundays have proved to be my downfall. I'm usually on my own after dropping Andrew off to go home in the morning, so maybe it's boredom or cause I'm a bit down or just because I'm greedy and I'm looking for an excuse. Being on my own can't really be the issue, cause I'm on my own Monday to Thursday til her turns up again on Friday evenings. Guess I'm just a greedy pig.
Anyhow, to break this and take charge, I decided today could be extra calories, or at least extra volume of lower calories, but within the carb limit, and not too far over calories cause I'm doing great so far. So this is how it went... Breakfast was an oatmeal pack, all fine and dandy. Then I had a notion to have swede cubes with a processed cheese slice melted over the top of them. It was ok, nothing to get excited about, and to be absolutely truthful, a waste of calories!
Decided tea would be swede cubes again (they are my saviour veg!) with leeks - did them both together in the actifry, gave pretty good results. Then a 70g pack of honey roast ham and 45g of grated cheddar. All this with a cheesy pasta pack. It was too much. Way too much. But, as a lesson to learn, I ate it all, and felt bloated and sick and bleugh.
So, it's not far from 9pm, I've had 2 packs and all that other guff and have had 592 calories. I will have a shake in a mo too - so that'll be taking me over 700 for today.
In comparison to my "regular" days intake - tiny. On a VLCD - a waste of way too many calories that could have been had on something nicer.
2 more full days to go then it's week one weigh in. My aim right now - to do better than I did on my very first week ever on a VLCD - so I need 11.5lb to top that - BIG ask!
