Preparations!

Yesterday and today I've prepared myself and my kitchen for this challenge ahead.
Lots of fresh meat, veggies and fruit. Cashew nuts for snack.
Last night I lay in bed going through websites looking for recipes and started writing them down in a special book. Much easier having a book at hand than trying to find it online.
Flavouring food is also a challenge for me, so after some handy tips from friends I bought a lot of spices and dried herbs. Chucked a concoction into a coffee grinder and made a batch. Testing it on pork chops tonight.
Today's eating has been okayish. Protein shake for breakfast. Disappointed that my training session was cancelled. Lunch was spinach pasta, mince, creamed spinach, patty pans. I know pasta is a no-no but I didn't want to waste last nights leftovers, it was so yummy.
Gotta laugh though. This morning trying to take before pics was so difficult. Eventually asked my hubby aka Mr Grumpy to help. They'll have to do :)
Was pleasantly surprised by my weigh-in. Even though I've been eating like a monster, a cookie monster to be precise, it appears my metabolism has been working overtime as I have not gained as much as I feel I have.
My friends are already checking up on me. Eeeeek. So there's no turning back or cheating. I've gotta be a good girl.
