V-Diet 2 : Day 17
May 30, 2008 9:13 am Velocity Diet LogI haven’t fallen off the wagon, I just got lazy filling in my log.
Thing are just so easy now I forget I’m even doing it. Things that used to be hard like when I had some down time at home just sitting around trying not to eat anything aren’t hard anymore. I drink some water, go for a walk, prep shakes for the day after, read a book, look up stuff on the net; whatever. Week three really is the solid turning point and I remember it was the same last time. It’s where you start to gain all the other benefits of the diet.
I’m actually not craving anything at the moment like I remember last time. I remember craving veges and healthy solid food but not so much this time. I’ve cooked a couple of protein cakes these past few days but I’ve just had a nibble to make sure they were worth keeping. 800 calories for the entire cake is hard to argue with!
Today anyway was my day off, I did my 90 minute walk in the morning and other than that I mainly rested. I watched a movie when I got home, didn’t ride my bike because it was raining like crazy and didn’t run for the same reason. I went to bed early and got some rest.
The increased rest and reduced exercise has really paid off in energy. Like, really, really paid off! I was taking 500-800mg of caffeine a day in coffee and tablet form but the last few days I’ve just been having coffee for taste so my caffeine intake has been about two coffees worth.
So it’s half way through week three meaning one and a half weeks to go and I’m feeling really good and wondering where the time went! I’m really looking forward to this weekend it is going to be a lot of fun with my closest friends.
