Well ... After doing fantastically well for the first three days, I went downhill rather. I kept up the diet until the weekend, but I'd thoroughly knackered myself out with all the cycling and swimming and had to have a rest! Does drinking all weekend and eating "rally food" (pot noodles and bacon butties) count as a rest? No. It doesn't. We are supposed to be going to another scooter rally this weekend - which I really wanted to go to as King Kurt are playing. We've decided not to though as we're just not up to it!! I dragged myself out Sunday too to the Music in the Park in Ipswich.
The end result was 1 pound off by yesterday (I forgot to weigh myself on tuesday). Its not bad going. Only trouble is, I've only just found enough effort to get back on my bike and back to the pool. Still, at least I have today, and I must say it was much easier having a new swimsuit to adequately contain my appendages!!
1 pound down ..... w00t!!

Day Three ...
REPEAT AFTER ME ....
"Hunger is my friend."
I'm starving today!! I've just eaten a whole tray of cherry tomatoes, I'm hoping they'll satisfy my hunger pangs in a minute or so. Any longer than that and I'll have to ask my colleagues to restrain me from going to the vending machine.
It's my own fault though. I didn't eat enough yesterday. I just had a bowl of Special K for tea instead of a meal. I fancied it though and didn't really have time to cook.
After having already cycled to work and back, to the swimming pool and back and swum 20 lengths, my friend I was meeting "for a beer" had I realised tricked me into actually going for a long walk with a beer at the end of it. Twas fine though. I enjoyed it, and so did my little doggy.
Roll on slimsville!!! :D

Day Two
Well Day One went reasonably well. I ate Fruit n fibre for breakfast, cucumber and tomatoes for mid morning snack, salad (with cheese - which is a bit naughty) for lunch. Fish, new potatoes and corn on the cob for tea.
I swam 20 lengths, despite my nipples popping out of my swimsuit almost every length and I lost an earring in the pool.
I cycled to work and back.
Andy put a battery in the scales and I found I'd actually put on 3½ pounds since I last weighed in, which wasn't as bad as I thought.
Today I cycled to work, had tomatoes mid-morning, cycled to the swimming pool, swam 20 lengths in a different swimsuit, cycled back to work. I've just had a prawn salad and now I'm tucking to (over)ripe cherries. I think I'll have fish for tea again tonight. At this rate I'll be toned up by the weekend ;)
