Day 1

7.30am - 3 eggs fried in butter - 1.5g
9.55am - small salad which consisted of lettuce, cucumber and ham - approx 2.8g
12noon - salami (I bought 90g and ate it over the course of the day) - 3.2g
A/A - mortadella with peppercorns - 3.2g
1.30pm - BBQ chicken minus the stuffing - 0.1g
6pm 200g mixed nuts - 16g
8pm - 3 eggs fried in butter - 1.5g

That gives a total of 28.3g carbs for the whole day.

This is a typical day for me if I'm totally unprepared.

I did not get to Body Pump today like I'd hoped as I forgot all about my 5pm to have my eyebrows and lashes tended to. It's also too hot and I probably wouldn't have gone anyway. I hate this weather sometimes.

Having said that, I was tired mentally but had lots of physical energy so I spent a good portion of today walking everywhere at work and then through the shopping centre after work. In all, I feel good. Looking forward to tomorrow :)

Weighing in... I never weigh in. I didn't even know we had scales in the bathroom - but we do! I weighed in three times and got the readings 88.8kg, 87.1kg and 86.5kg. Then I got 86.5kg the following three times but I don't think that can be right considering my eating lately. So the middle is 87.4kg so I'll go with that.

Not too bad for a disorderly Day 1!

Looking forward to seeing how you've been going too. I think this is a great challenge and I can't wait to make it part of my routine and really get into the swing of things!
