No pasta, no bread, no potato. It's tough. I treated myself to a little chocolate each day because I'd be miserable otherwise.
So what has it done? It helps to shrink your stomach and you find that you have less of an appetite.
With the big food fest on the 25th just around the corner, it's important to pre-empt that weight gain and combat the desire to eat more since it's grey outside and you're hiding everything beneath big coats and sweaters.
I've tried detox, maple syrup (ok only once but it was awful), low cal, mega workouts and it is all about discipline.
So what's been in my food diary? Lots of fresh fruit and veg, nuts, eggs, fish, aloe vera tablets to help with cleansing and so much water. No meat, no alcohol, no eating out. And the results? Between one and two kilos.
So this weekend I've indulged a little and the next five days I'll try no pasta, bread and potatoes again. I'll aim for three and anything else is bonus.
Wishing you all well on your pre-Christmas diet adventures.
