So how was day 1. Hard. I have finished dinner and to be honest while not ravenously hungry I need something more. Today has taught me I need to have healthy snacks available. I hit the wall at 3pm and had a small packet of chips. Less than a 100 calories but lots more smart choices out there. So some shopping on the agenda tomorrow.
The food was mostly good. I had toast for breakfast which is my usual start to the day. Today however no butter. Mixing up breakfast will be something I work on in the coming weeks.
Lunch was a wrap made with Mountain bread.
I have to say the bread didn't rock my boat but I will keep with it for a week or two to see if I get used to it.
Dinner was heavily modified. It was meant to be vegetarian but we added some chicken tenderloin. Laurie marinated it during the day and then used a griddle pan to cook it. Lovely. The couscous salad was much better than I expected. Dressing was a bit too lemony for my liking but I will fiddle with the proportions in the future.
I have managed to drink 1 1/2 litres of water, Not bad when normally I drink none.
Walking is my exercise for the moment and the rain tonight has put a stop to that thought. Not a huge concern as I will just do more later in the week.
Last thing I have noticed is a strange taste in my mouth. Not unpleasant just different. May just be the change of diet. Time will tell.
