Day 36

My days eating plan is:

B = Oatmeal (300 cal)
9am = Tea
10.30am = Shake (200 cal)
12pm = Tea
1/1.30pm = Stri Fry (400 cal)
3pm = Tea
4.30pm = Protein Bar (200 cal)

12.59pm

Right, so I have come up with an experiment to try and sort out my eating habits. Basically I want to teach my body that it is always going to be feed and I want it to know when to be expecting it's next meal.

By making my eating regular (and planned) I am hoping that I am going to cut down my cravings for food, because my body will learn that food is at these particular times.

So far so good. Only now I am getting hungry for lunch which is right on schedule.

The only mistake is that for breakfast I had leftovers from last night, which was a shepherds pie, this would mean that I had around 400 calories for breakfast, and the plan for today was meant to be 300, still only 100 more is OK.

I had Tea at 9am and then at 10.30am I had a protein shake which equals 200 calories, then at 12pm I had my next cup of tea.

Not only is this plan setting my body food clock, but it will also keep my nicely hydrated with all this herbal tea I am drinking.

2.54pm

Observations so far. I'm not starving but I do have slight hunger. This hunger I believe is coming from cravings for something yum. However, on the brighter side I don't feel like crap like I did yesterday because I haven't eaten terrible food or too much food.

Throughout today I am having a few almonds as well. They are good for me, and I'm proud of myself for actually eating some of them.

I will be very interested to know what my overall calorie intake will be from today. I am eating good calories, but I am not eating less calories.

Final Notes:

What my day of eating actually looked like

Breakfast - left over shepherds pie
9am - green tea
10.30 - Shake
12pm - detox tea
1.30pm - stri fry
3pm - green tea
4.30pm - protein bar

Dinner was a Honey and Thyme Chicken and Rice.

I did have almonds throughout the day and I did have some chips before dinner.

Trying to total up my calories I would say 2060 I guess
