Ate more poocorn than pictured but it's skinny popcorn. Munched a whole bag. Had tuna mayo sandwich on small bread for lunch. Dinner was a gammon joint. I made cauliflower cheese and was careful with the cheese sauce. We got a meal deal with the gammon which included a sticky toffee pudding. I only ate one bit with 80g of custard, despite there being a spare slice and loads of custard.

The practice is over weigh day 11.11

I attempted to switch the diet as I feel 5:2 isn't working for me. Mainly because I am so greedy and eating whatever I wanted on  non fast days. I think calling them feast days was a mistake a well.  I have not lost any weight and was 11.11 1/4 this morning so I have actually put on!. I did still have a fast day on Wednesday as I was out for a meal out on Thursday.  I've put pictures on. I'm going to stick with to fast days however or non fast days I'm going to stuck to
Breakfast
Lunch
Healthy snack
Dinner
Snack /dessert
All portion controlled.

Today and last night I went crazy eating hotel chocolat chocolates that I stupidly bought and they are most definitely not worth the money or calories.
