Day Thirty Nine

Well, its Friday tomorrow and I actually have something to do this weekend now so I have something to look forward to :) - a Jon Russell party!! But I sharnt be drinking though due to me being strict with myself on the Low Carb diet, even though I have reached the stone milestone, I still have about 19lbs to lose yet! Plus the fact I am skint again! lol

6.30am Breakfast
Natural yoghurt, mixed nuts and linseeds with a mug of Green Tea.

10.00am Snack
Granny Smith apple, and a small one at that!








12.30pm LunchPrawn mayo salad with lettuce, cucumber, tomato, spring onion.



14.30pm Pot of Green Tea


I didn't get home from work til 17.45pm today so no time to exercise as my belly was a rumbling!!


18.00pm Dinner
Chicken Mayo salad with cucumber, lettuce, tomatoes and spring onion.

Day Thirty Eight

Feeling pretty good as the 1 stone milestone mark has been reached, even though I still haven't been to the loo for a few days. I took some more Senokot Max last night, hoping it will kick in today!!! 

6.30am Breakfast
Natural yoghurt, mixed nuts with linseeds (extra today for extra fibre) and a mug of Green Tea.

I have brought an orange (soluble fibre) into work with me today as well as the remainder of grapes and kiwis that I brought for Day 1 of the CDD!


So, if you ask me if I would recommend having a go at the 7 day CDD after having dieted for a few weeks, I would say NO!!! No point!! I think with most diets you would lose 7lbs in your first week as your body gets used to a new way of eating, but as my body is pretty used to eating mainly fruit and veg, the cabbage detox had little effect on me!! :(

8.15 am Pot of Green Tea

10.30am Snack
One orange.

11.30am Pot of Green Tea

I have been to the loo this morning, but only once so I think there should be more to come yet :)


12.30pm Lunch
 3 kiwis and some grapes
  

Not quite the lunch you'd expect from someone that has had cabbage soup for lunch for seven days to eat!! lol but I don't like to waste food and I still had all this fruit left from Day 1 of CDD so I thought why not eh? I still have 2 more kiwis yet, but I can always have them tomorrow :)


I did 28 minutes on my Wii Fit today including a 'long jog', which I was knackered by the end of! lol The scales said I had decreased a little since last time lol so cabbage detox diet is still just a 2lb loss.


18.00pm Dinner
Cheese salad. Lettuce, cucumber, tomato, cheddar cheese, celery and primula and dolcelette cheese... Think I used up most of  the cheese left in my fridge lol I forgot to take a photo though, I think I was too eager to eat the cheese! I had this with a glass of cranberry juice :)


I know that not everyone that reads my blog is from the UK, so here is primula cheese spread in case you wondered.

Day Thirty Seven - (CDD Day 7)

Day Seven:
Brown rice, unsweetened fruit juices and vegetables all you want.
Be sure to eat your soup at least once to day.

 

Woo! Its Day Seven finally!!!!!

6.30am Mug of Green Tea

I know today is unsweetened fruit juices to drink, but I forgot to bring some into work with me, so I'll drink some when I get home

8.00am Breakfast

Cabbage soup. Yes, I went and had it for breakfast!!! I just wanted to get my last helping of cabbage soup out of the way so I never have to eat in again!!!! I have loads left in my fridge though, if anyone wants some??

8.30am Pot of Green Tea

I plan to weigh myself after work, in case you wondered what the scales picture was for! I figured best to do today as I will be back on Low Carb tomorrow, but I will only do it tonight if the blooming Senokot MAX I took last night hurries up and works! ;P

10.30am Pot of Green Tea

12.30pm Lunch

Brown rice and one tomato. I forgot that tomato is a fruit!!! Too late now...

ok, so I get home feeling all energetic, chuck the remainder of the cabbage soup down the loo and flush, happily watching it disappear, then doing the mountain of washing up and ridding my flat of any remaining cabbage soup stench!! Then its Wii Fit time, did 13 minutes today, but those 13 minutes included a 3 minute jog (which I never feel I have the energy to do). Then it was time to weigh...

Not exactly the suggested 10-15lbs weight loss, but I did lose 2lbs which is better than I expected, as I felt like I was eating more than I normally do! Plus I haven't had a proper poo in a few days, the Senokot Max will have to be taken again tonight and I'll weigh again tomorrow if it works... Good news is I am only 1lb heavier than I was for Paul & Chris's wedding in 2009 and 3lb heavier than I was for Adam & Hayley's wedding last August. They do say muscle weighs more than fat though as I don't feel as slim as I did last year, but hey, July is a while off yet so I am well on target! I'd also like to mention that I have now lost 1 STONE!!!

18.30pm Dinner

Brown rice, half a green pepper and 2 mushrooms and a glass of cranberry juice.
