DUKAN diet - day 4

The "what have I eaten" list:
- can of tuna
- chicken ham
- souvlaki lamb

Souvlaki? Did I hear you correctly? Yeah that's right! My fourth day happened to be a Friday and Fridays are reserved for Mr V. After 3 days of restrictions, my body was crying out for something naughty. and well... Technically souvlaki is a meaty dish though Mr DUKAN must be rolling his eyes at my take of his rules.

The souvlaki snack was so savory and delicious that I nearly decided to quit and give up.

But fortunately, my low self esteem played it's cards and once again... I followed the DUKAN pathway.

DUKAN diet - day 2

The " what have I eaten" list:
- chicken ham
- natural yogurt
- tuna in springwater
- diet coke

So officially the second if the DUKAN diet and I'm already feeling the fatigue that comes with having no source of carbohydrates. Had training at head office today and the biggest highlight at each training is the delicious mini muffins that they bring in at roughly 10am... But unlucky for me... I had two days of training and both these days fall in my week of ATTACK PHASE which means absolute no Carbs.

Mr K ripped off a small crumb and gave it to me... Best thing I've tasted recently.

I feel woozy.

DUKAN diet -Day 1

My birthday has recently just past and I have to say that it was a delicious birthday. No, not a fun birthday because technically it was not fun... Birthdays aren't until past the age of group birthdays at Mcdonalds. It was delicious because it seems like the bulk of adult birthdays are food related. I had souvlaki after souvlaki and Chinese food after Chinese food... I was then a 24 year old with an epiphany! I received a DUKAN Diet book from Miss b for my birthday and decided that it was time in my life to take giant leap... Into the deep dark world where no Carbs can pass the mouth.

The "here's what I've eaten" list:
-Chicken ham x5 slices
-natural yogurt x1 small tub
- tandoori chicken pieces
-chicken drumsticks, eggs in soy sauce

How I felt:
I was extremely woozy for he whole day and terribly grumpy as he'll. Sittin at my work desk and looking at words that seem to blur before my very eyes. Not very hungry but feel healthier nonetheless.

Then he adds to my little mind orgasm by telling me that this position is permanent... Could not stop myself from smiling, in fact I think he wind may have change cos I just looked in the mirror and I look terrible anyway... Change of topic... Now Miss A and Miss D wantto join in also!! What fun!!!!!! All the ladies that are comin tonght haven't met each other so I'm definately not alone!

Wonder how my first game of Netball will unfold?

Lunch by myself

No one to entertain, no need to create meaningless conversation, no need to enlighten anyone... Eating ones lunch by oneself is the secret. Although it may seem a tad anti-social, it is actually giving you enough time to appreciate the finer things in life, things that we take for granted. How often do you actually WANT to slow down your eating and really appreciate the explosion of flavours in your mouth? How often do you have time to sit here and reflect on the day? People are so overwhelmed these days, noone has the time of the day for themselves.

I say this because I just had lunch alone at my desk... I realized that minestrone in my bowl contains a few types of beans, not sure what hey are but he texture s different...maybe I'm just trying to sugarcoat the fact that I had noone to lunch with!!!!

Got a work meeting soon, I must attempt to stay awake... Ever notice how difficult it is to stay awake??? It is one of the hardest things to fight off... I've never successfully won... Have you?

Public Transport

So, it another one of hose days when you decide to take a risk and do something out of the norm... But then watch as it backfires against you. My situation isn't half as serious as the sentence sounds but I did feel the urge to self-slap my forehead...

Whilst drivin to the train station this morning, I decided to bypass my normal station and head to the next one in high hopes of catching the early train... Turns out Melbournes transport is just what it's rumoured to be.... If I'd rename it, it would probably be LOSTLINK - taking your money and getting you nowhere.

Has anyone bought a ticket lately? A full fare daily ticket into and out of he city will burn a $10 hole in your pocket. What? You wanted to eat? Forget it, you may as well suck on your thumb to simulate an eating motion.. On my recent trip into japan and hong kong, I can say that the transport system there is worthy of being called a transport system... Especially japan... Every nook and cranny is being serviced with some kinda transport line.

Hate to bitch but yeh...

Mobile Blogging

Blogging the iPhone way is the new in-thing... It definitely is convenient but there's this constant danger of having someone throw the phone against the wall because of the auto spell checker embedded in the phone - oh wait, that person would be me.
