Day 17 - GOOD!

OK I am finding it tough to comment on other blogs when am on flatmate's laptop, so I'm being a bit quiet... she's gone to bed for now though, so I can quickly post before I head!

Day 1 of "The VB Diet" - porridge for breakfast (200 at most), strawberries (40), peas (50), lettuce (0 surely?), carrot (30), celery (10), couple of chips (20), two Britvic drinks (250). So that's 590. Pretty freaking sweet.

Admittedly, this was partly because I went to an event in the evening and drank a lot of diet coke and water. And I was told a story involving a Mars Bar and the lady place and felt really sick afterwards (story was after the couple of chips). Whatever works. I'm pleased with that. Rock on. Had I been at home, I'd have got hungry and eaten more.

I can't be as good tomorrow, as expected, since I'm having a couple of girls over for dinner and girly chats - this is clearly going to involve chocolate. I'm making a lentil chilli so will get some spices going at least. If I start off the day like I've done today though, I think that's acceptable. I'm not willing to sacrifice friendships, I'll just be a little careful.

Hope you're all staying strong, I miss reading your blogs (I will! I promise! When I get onto the library computers and don't have other people around me).
