Still got the same restriction... still having the occasional puke, but I have been able to keep myself in check in the main.
Today's food...
Breakfast:
Apple
Snack:
mini bite size cadbury's caramel
Lunch:
2 slices bread, cheddar chesse, tomato toasted... but not eaten. I managed 1 quarter of this toastie... most likely 1 bit of tomato, a bit of cheese and half a slice of bread... and then most of that ended up in the sink when I pb'd.
Dinner:
2 little fish cakes, spoon of baked beans and a spoon of mashed potato.
Evening snack bowl of ice cream.
Total for today 850 cals.
Oh, and by the way... don't tell any one, but today I sneakily weighed myself... It said 17 stone 8 and a half... Oh BLISS! But I wont record it until monday so that I get my same weekly result.

Food Fight
This is an amazing video. The foods of nations fighting against each other from 1939 to present. Does anyone else find this to be a profound work of art? 25 Extreme Diets
RNCentral has compiled a list of the 25 most ridiculous and ineffective popular diets. Though I agree most of these are not good for long term weight loss, I think the South Beach Diet and the Macrobiotic Diet shouldn't be on this list. If most people ate as prescribed in these diets, their daily choice of snacks and meals would be much healthier than the average persons daily food consumption.
Check out their list of the top extreme diets.
The macrobiotic meal above consists of brown rice, kale and brocolli.

Feeling cold :o(
Today I have been mostly feeling cold. I don't know if its because I am burning fat or what, but I am chilly all the time. Even in Bed. No one else is.
DS was running around all morning in his pants. He said he was too warm to put clothes on. By the way, who feels that I should worried about my 9 year old son not liking clothes...? Anyone? Seriously, the boy prefers to be in the nude or as nude as possible. He has absolutely no hang ups whatsoever and even once fully dressed, usually by the end of the day he has managed to lose the jumper, socks, t shirt, and trousers at odd places around the house.
I was also really annoyed yesterday. I left a HUGE pile of clothes, all folded, on his bed for him to out away. When I went up to check on him and give him a kiss, because I got back from work after he was in bed, I saw him sleeping WITH said pile. I couldn't believe it. He had just got into bed and laid on top of them all. What is wrong with him? There are toys in that bed, books, pens, crayons, cups, wrappers, PlayStation games and biscuit crumbs and it must be SO uncomfortable, but he says he likes it. I have given up bothering to tidy it up because it simply doesn't work. He likes living in a sty.
Anyway, I am freezing right now too, and am about to go to bed with a tracksuit on.
Foodwise:
Breakfast: nothing but pills.
Snack: 1 Banana
Lunch: 100g Nasi Goreng (a chicken and rice dish from Eismann)
Dinner: 100g Lasagne and peas.
Total cals today are 454.
Wicked!
