For those of you who may have read my intro, my first habit to make is to eat one plate of food three times a day with nothing in between.
For 21 days I don't care if the food I eat is sweet- but it has to be one piece and no seconds
The nutritional content will be as balanced as I can but it's currently not the issue!
I can have a piece of fruit afterwards as long as it is part of the meal, it isn't later on (in other words, a snack)
I resolve to pick right back up on the exercise. I intend to run the London Marathon next April for charity so I HAVE to start working on this now (I was a keen runner but I have lapsed...)
So here we are:
My first meal was a panini and a coffee at a meeting - around about 11am. I'm a little scared about getting hungry and snacking and I am rarely in the mood to eat first thing- if I do eat first thing it often leads to bingeing so I didnt.
My second meal was also a sandwich with breast of chicken and ham with a side salad and a few (it was a few, honest!) potato chips. No butter or mayo on the bread
I went to the gym and did 30 mins run, 20 mins stepper and a 30 min spin class. I was in the mood for a workout as I had had a VERY stressful day at work......
Dinner was home cooked- skinless chicken thighs in a marinade with a few baby potatoes, herbs, carrots swede and spinach.
That's it. Trying to drink more water. Day one is always the easiest though, eh? Truth is that I do feel satisfied and don't want anything else

So Day one is definitely GREEN
Have a good day everyone
