Not the result I had hoped for but no surprise there.

Today was the day of my first weigh in, and usually with the result I had this morning I would have been disappointed and upset and gone completely off the rails…. Yes… I had a gain but honestly I am not at all surprised, there are 2 reasons why I gained, the first being that it’s all the previous weeks of CHEATING catching up on me and the second being water retention. No I am not making excuses I know I am to blame for my gain but part of that gain is also water retention, I could barely get my engagement ring on this morning which is why I know I am retaining water, I normally have to check my hand every now and then to make sure my ring is still on my finger because it is normally that loose.

Anyway, this is not a race to see who finishes first, I know this is going to take me a long time and I need to embrace this journey because the minute I start becoming impatient, is when things go wrong and this I know from experience on every other diet I have ever tried.

Next week I am sure I will have a positive result. Needless to say I was hoping that first weigh in would be a loss but if I want this to work I cannot lie and say I lost, what kind of example would that be setting for those of you that have stumbled onto my blog.

So moving along, today I actually feel pretty good, I made bacon and egg muffins, with cheese and mushrooms was very yummy along with my bullet proof coffee, I think I can safely say I have had enough of the good fats to keep me going until later this afternoon/early evening, however I have brought myself a piece of chicken to work should I start feeling a little peckish later today.

My weight as of today is 149.7 so it’s a gain of 1.1kg which I am sure will be off next week with more.
