I haven’t blogged for a few days because I haven’t been so well, I had fever and sore throat. The good side is that I had very little appetite so not only did I not regain any of the weight I had lost during the Cabbage Soup Diet, but I even lost some more: -0.7kg. I had lost my appetite and did not eat much, when I did eat I mainly had eggs, meat, chicken, cheese, yoghurt and some nuts, plus a few raw carrots but not much more in the way of vegetables. On Sunday after a hard morning’s work taking down the Xmas tree, packing away the decorations, and rearranging all the suitcases, overnight bags, beach toys and other junk in the mini-attic to put the Xmas boxes away, I did treat myself to one 330ml bottle of beer.
During the last few days I had made five batches of brownies for Son to treat his friends at school, tennis, language institute for his 8th birthday. I just tasted a small piece of crust (not even a full mouthful) of the first batch to check taste before making more, as it was a new recipe. Luckily I don’t get a sweet tooth often but I usually have one piece of whatever I’ve baked; this time I was being cautious about unnecessary calories.
Today the Omron showed me at 37.1% fat, 28.7kg fat so although the % has stayed roughly the same, I’m -0.7kg fat–so it wasn’t all water loss. Now on to the next stage, a proper balanced eating plan.
