Despite the empty Mars Delight wrapper on my desk, this week has been a good week for dieting. As per normal I have found dieting during the week at work easier and the weekend has seen some bad food choices.
It seems that my structured working week forces me to plan my meals and at the weekend I let that all go. Plus the weekend seems to include at least one pub lunch/dinner, at which I find it difficult to choose something healthy, because even the healthy options ain't low gi anyway...
Bad Rachel!
Anyway bad behaviour aside I have lost 1.5 pounds this week - only half pound back to 11.13. Have decided to set myself a mini goal of getting to 11.5 over the next two months so that when I go back to my doctor I will be three stone lighter than my starting weight. That means losing 8 pounds in that time - which I think is more than managable in the time I have set myself. And!!! My boyfriend should be handing in a completed draft of his phd thesis this week (please god let it be over with after 7 years!!!) which means I may have a squash buddy again, which will hopefully make the weightloss a bit easier.
This coming week though shalt eat low gi at all times even at the weekend...
I'm with ya! I've been on a low gi diet for three and a half weeks now (and am estatic that I have lost 12 pounds). I find that I'm much, much better to myself on the weekdays when I plan ahead. Even with a demanding schedule, I can do it. When it comes to the weekend, I find myself fudging a bit. Socializing with food can be hard!
