Attack - Day 4

Day 4:

Weight: 11st 0.7lb
Weight lost 3.7lb
Goal: 10st
Left to lose: 1st 0.7lb (14.7lb)

Breakfast:
2 x boiled eggs
Mullerlight + oatbran

Snack: activia cherry

Lunch: (at grandmas)
Fish fingers, chips and peas
1 chocolate digestive

Tea:
Roast chicken and chives + onion cottage cheese

Drinks: tea, fizzy flavoured water, diet coke, water.

Exercise: body combat class

Verdict:
I felt bad for having to cheat at lunch but there really wasn't much option as I didn't want to offend my grandma by insisting on what I ate or taking my own food.

After my body combat class this morning I felt really drained though so it did me good to have a decent meal.

Combat burns around 600 calories a class and is very high impact. I found I really hard to keep up today, as I did yesterday too. I guess boiled eggs aren't as good fuel wise as my usual pre workout porridge. 

Thankfully I'm coming to the end of Attack now so I can begin Cruise and  start re introducing more food groups back into my diet. I'm absolutely dying to have fruit and veg again, sod chocolate!

Attack - Day 3

Day 3

Weight: 11st 1.1lb
Weight lost: 3.3lb
Goal: 10st
Weight left to lose: 1st 1.1lb (15.1lb)

Breakfast:
2x boiled eggs
Mullerlight + oatbran 

Lunch:
2 x boiled eggs 
Pack of turkey

Snack:
Activia fat free yoghurt

Tea:
Roast chicken and cottage cheese
Fat free fromage frais + cinnamon 

Drinks:
Diet coke, flavoured fizzy water and water water water..

Exercise: body combat class

Verdict:

Today and last night have been a battle of willpower. It's PMT time AND the weekend and as such I want to eat bad bad things.

Thankfully I haven't caved, largely because of the blooming brilliant weight loss and also because I so want to be back in my 'skinny' jeans.  They do up, but there is a definate muffin top going on.

I had a bit of an egg overload today as I was scared of passing out in my body combat class! I did feel a bit weak at times, probably from the lack of carbs but I managed to soldier through and will be going tomorrow morning too.

I'm going to my grandmas for lunch tomorrow. Shes a veggie. Maybe I should take my own food! 

Excited that I could wake up tomorrow and be under 11st again! Reading up on Cruise just in case :)

Attack - Day 1

Starting weight: 11st 4.4lbs
Goal weight: 10st
Weight left to lose: 1st 4.4lbs (18.4lbs)

Breakfast:
Oatbran Galette
Mullerlight strawberry yoghurt

Lunch:
Roast chicken and cracked black pepper fat free cottage cheese

Snack: mini can diet coke 

Tea: beef steak medallion and more cottage cheese
Activia fat free cherry yoghurt

Drinks: LOTS of water.

Day one has gone so well. I am infact surprised at how easy it's been. But then it's only day one and I'm at the peak of my motivation.

I've not once felt hungry or sick or tired or weak, nor have I craved any bad things i used to love so much. Today's food has been delicious, and I'm confident I'll have no problems at all in sticking to the strict rules of attack.

According to the book I should do attack for around 3 days as I have less than 20lbs to lose. I'm going to see how I go though as I really want to get under 11stone before moving onto Cruise. If it takes a couple more days I'll do 4 or 5.

Along with starting the Dukan Diet I'm also going to combine it with 30 day shred. Its a brilliant exercise DVD by Gillian Michaels (America's Biggest Loser Trainer) 20 minutes a day, 3 levels, 30 days. I've done it before and it's great. I've also done 2 school runs today so 60 minutes of exercise. 

Roll on day 2!
