Up and down in week 7

So after Monday, usual fast day I weighed myself and to my horror I had gone from 12 stone 3 on Friday to 12 stone 5 3/4 on Tuesday!  I put this down to having a Friday night in the pub with the boys - bragging about how well the 5/2 was going!  So over the weekend I probably drank at least 10 pints of lager and cider and half a bottle of wine.  

This meant an alcohol free week was required to try to rectify the problem (well almost). My Thursday fast day went a bit wrong as I had to collect my new banger rally Golf Gti from London so it turned into - a bowl of bran for breakfast, sandwich for lunch and a celebratory pint of cider followed by another bowl of cereal for supper!  Not ideal as a diet but when I weighed myself this morning I was 12 stone 2 1/4!

So my new diet will be cider!!

Into week 7

So I'm on my fast day...feeling a bit hungry but not too bad as it's nearly dinner.  The news from last week is that on Tuesday I had gained 1/4 lb and was back up to 12 stone 5lbs but by Friday I was down again, this time to 12 stone and 3lbs which I was very pleased with.  I stuck with the banana...soup...and chicken and roasted veg option again last week and I'm really enjoying the onions, peppers and courgettes roasted.  I've just been to my allotment and noticed the first baby courgette has started to grow so in 2 weeks or so hopefully I will be eating that!

Nothing else to report really apart from the fact that I feel thinner and my beer belly has definitely reduced.  I'm really hoping to be in the 11 stones by this time next week!
