I'm blogging this because it's so very unusual, and I want to remember how this feels.
I'm... not... hungry.
Seriously. I have not been hungry... ALL DAY. Is this what it feels like to be normal?
I mean... normally I get up in the morning - starving hungry - and eat breakfast. Then I go to the gym, work out... and have a second breakfast because I'm starving hungry. I'll have a snack mid morning because I'm starving hungry, barely hold out till 12pm before starting in on lunch because (you guessed it) I'm starving hungry, and then HAVE to have a snack mid-afternoon because I'm just so darned hungry. Finished off with dinner more or less as soon as I get in the door from work because - I'm hungry. And usually a later-evening snack, because I am again hungry. And quite often, I'll go to bed hungry.
Today? Ok, I was hungry when I woke up, but not RAGING hunger. I had breakfast at 8.30am when I got to work. Not a massive breakfast - four scrambled eggs with a little rice milk. I had a couple of apples mid morning, but more because I was thirsty than hungry. At half twelve I had a tuna salad (literally just tuna, lettuce, cucumber and tomato with a little dressing), a bag of crisps (my new vice!), and a banana. Then I came home and made dinner, which I have just finished eating, at 7.45pm. I wasn't *hungry*. From 1pm right through till 7.30pm, even when I was sitting down to dinner, I wasn't hungry.
What. The. Actual. Fuck?
Seriously? It was THIS EASY to do - all I had to do was cut out wheat, yeast, coffee and dairy and take a few extra supplements, and NOBODY TOLD ME?!
I'm back to the weight I was at the start of the year. This is having lost 6lbs in a week *and* being due on this week so hopefully due to lose more this week. My flabber is literally gasted, and my flab seems to be melting off my bones. I'm just - seriously, floored by this.
In other news, I was supposed to give up my rehydration drink tabs and swap in Aloe Vera juice. Have discovered Aloe Vera juice is fucking nasty. The drinks tabs are staying and the aloe is going and bugger anyone who says any different!!!
