Fast number Three

I feel as though I was putting off fasting for most of this week.  I 'thought about' doing it on Tuesday but didn't, so I decided to do it yesterday.  I find it works better if I don't plan it!  Once half ten arrives, if I've not had breakfast then that's it - fast day sorted!!!

I found yesterday really tricky for some reason.  I was hungry when I woke up and the feeling never really left me.  It's not the hunger that's the problem though it's just the feeling of wanting to CHEW something!!!!!!

I met some buddies yesterday morning for a dog walk which was great, (our new dog = my exercise machine, loving it!  I've never walked so much and the kids are feeling the benefit too - all good!).
Sadly, I totally forgot that I was fasting and downed a carton of apple juice.  I know, what a total and utter waste of calories!  It's not like it was nice Copella either, it was Tesco value!  I was gutted when I realised that I could have eaten a chicken breast instead of swallowing the sticky warm apple juice!

Never mind!

The day progressed and I got more and more agitated and wanted something to eat so I had a tub of pease pudding which is really light in calories, two boiled eggs and a couple of small organes.  I'm not sure if I went over 500 cals or not but it didn't feel like it!

I was glad when it was bed time but I really didn't sleep very well and, as on other post fast days I woke at about 5.30 ready for the day.

I've had eggs for brekkie with a slice of toast and the thought of having anything else makes me feel a bit ill so I hope today's going to be a good day where food's concerned.

I ate A LOT last week in between fast days, and not good food either but my mind gave itself a kicking after I spent a bit of time looking at the lovely fashions on PInterest.  I WILL be slimmer and I WILL go to the ball!!!!

The dog is the best thing to have happened to this family since Annie was born.  She's a jack russell puppy - a bundle of fun and love.  She's helping to keep us healthy and active and she's showing us how to fall in love again because she's just magical.

I didn't weigh myself before fasting last week but I did weigh myself yesterday so this time next week I'll know if I've lost anything or not.
