5th Jan – Weight 96
DAY 5 – Daily Loss 0kg / Weekly Loss 4kg / Total Loss 4kg
Welcome to Day 5. So, I have put down that I have not lost weight. Today, my own scale said 95.4kg, and when I moved it, it said 88.2 kg, when I moved it back it said 96kg, then moved back again and it was at 96kg. I then went to the shower-room scale, and that had me at 87, then I moved it and I was 97kg, then I moved it again, and it was around 96kg. I don’t think I would have lost after the movie popcorn and snacks anyway. Also, it could be my body starting to fight back the weight loss. I am fine with it. This is the dangerous part, where I get depressed about trying, and things slow down. It’s like the runners when they say they hit a wall and you have to push through. I am determined to carry on. Anyway, on my Phase 1 of the Lose22in2022 plan (remember 6kgs in 12 weeks) I am 2/3rds of the way there. This would now usually make me celebrate, but its not treat time yet. Anyway, if you think of it, the movie snacks were the treats. I must carry on with diet. Push through the wall.

Breakfast again good – 3 boiled eggs. I have free-range eggs (Elgin) which are awesome, the best. In a pinch I will do all-grain, but unfortunately the cheapest eggs taste of fish, I am told, it is because of the fishmeal they eat. I feel a tad more environment conscious by eating free-range. But people get caught up too much on one aspect – think of all the trucks that had to delver the eggs. I think everyone should go back to the old days and keep their own chickens, but oh, the hassle and mess, and noise. No, all round, stick to free-range, and just hope they bring in electric trucks soon.
I so enjoyed the Simba Chips and Dip thing; I am having another portion (30g Simba Fruit Chutney and around 30g Lancewood Dip&Top Sour Chives. It may be higher in carbs than I like, but I am treating myself today a bit. If I don’t treat myself, I will end up getting annoyed with the diet.

I am starting “quote of the day” – I google random diet quotes. I will try make some up too, but today’s quote is “Don’t stop until you are proud”.

So, went for a drive today, had 2 chicken strips before lunch, and on the way back, bought a club sandwich – wholewheat bread with mayo, chicken, bacon, lettuce – it was awesome, and as this was main meal of the day it was ok that it was half my daily carb allowance, i.e. 33g, and only 476 kg.
Amazingly, I am not hungry for supper, so I just had some Fuze Ice tea (peach) and some coffee, and a handful of peanuts (yes, the same packet is going strong). And a coke light to wash it all down.
I am running out of food, so tomorrow, must go shopping – yay I will plan meals and shop around that, I look forward to it.
Daily summary: Carbs: 65.81, and 1107 calories, – amazing awesome, I got the carbs down to around 65 – so proud.
Until tomorrow, think lose22in2022
