Wow, nearly day 100. Incredible that I’ve lasted this long already.
Breakfast – porridge with full fat milk (I bought almond milk in quantity later in the day)
Mid morning – perhaps I needed more calcium, I don’t know. I just felt like I really wanted to eat yoghurt…. So eat yoghurt I did. I had four vanilla yogurts, and then three slices of cheese, and it really hit the spot. Seemed rather excessive but I am trying to eat according to what I think my body needs (I read somewhere someone calling it Intuitive Eating). I think that this is a really good description of what I’m doing.
Then onto Pilates! Hurray! Even though I hadn’t been all summer I actually felt in really good shape. I was able to do some of the exercises with the harder option, did a long plank, and felt really good afterwards. Even though it was cut short by a phone call from my children’s school which in the interest of my children’s privacy I am not going to share which child did what daft thing to mildly injure themselves (I am so sympathetic), I still felt good for going.
Because I’d had this mega snack, I didn’t really feel hungry for lunch. I had a banana early afternoon, and when I came home with the kids had a courgette, banana chocolate chip cupcake in a moment of hunger and weakness, then with the kids supper at about 5 I had some scrambled eggs and picked at the pasta.
Supper – pitta with scrambled egg, cottage cheese and pickles.
Lasting this long is excellent. 100 days is a milestone and you are proving a lot to yourself by keeping at it. With this level of staying power and focus, you are sure to reach your goals.
Listening to your body makes sense. It knows what you need.
Good for you!
