Things I learned this week...
- longer
The daily weights are not so important. It's the end of the week and the overall trend that matters. A bad morning weight could be demotivating otherwise.
- breath
My breath is minging. Not sure what to do about this. It seems to be my reaction to the diet. Mouthwash helps, but not for long. The bad breath is coming from deep within it seems.
- cramp
I am still suffering from cramp: mostly after exercise, but also sometimes just when I am sitting at my desk. I read in the book that is likely due to the water loss taking electrolytes with it. I have some magnesium/B6 supplements for now, while I seek out the calcium/magnesium version. Avocado also seems to help.
- poo
This diet does strange things to my rhythm, particularly towards the end of the week, followed by a (ahem) spectacular performance with very solid results. No problem and no discomfort, just strange.
- temptation
I felt some pangs of longing this week for a piece of cheese. It must be the 3 week itch. I didn't cave I am happy to say.
- left
Only two weeks left in the scheduled plan. I have yet to hit my first target, despite better than expected weight loss. I will continue until the first two targets are met, so this is likely to be extended. Just need to find small adjustments to increase strength to speed up the % lard change...
