I have never stuck to something so religiously as I have been to this "diet" routine. When I falter, I remind myself that this is not a strict, "you can only eat X food" kind of a diet. So, if I am really hungry, I eat something.
Yesterday was supposed to be all smoothies. I did not stick with that.
Day 4:
Morning tea
Breakfast: Smoothie
Lunch: Veggie Omelete
Dinner: Grilled chicken
I had a bowl of chicken corn soup while making it for my husband. My little cheat.
I am down another 0.6lbs today, total 3.4lbs.
However, I checked my fasting blood sugar and it was 127. Really disappointed. I knew when I started this diet that I cannot sustain it as it's very heavy on fruit which are heavy in carbs. I am going to count my carbs today. I was hoping I could lower my fasting levels through diet alone but we shall see.
Here's to finishing a week of this and then figuring out how to move next. If I hit the 5lb lost mark that would be awesome and then I have to figure out how to sustain that loss and not gain it back.
