Refeed day 1

I am embarking on my refeed, its going to be long and slow.. but here are my main aims for it..

1. Using Juddd - 2000 cals/500 cals pattern 
2. Eating mostly non processed foods
3. Keeping high protein as a priority (and as such mostly low carbs)
4. Training - weight training mostly, with some cardio and classes thrown in for fun

That's my focus until xmas really, hopefully I will be adding photos and videos along the way as I build on my refeed plan.

This is day 1 - which has been a down day - 500 cals have been consumed (54g carbs)

S&S has been amazing for me and I will be using slim & save products as I refeed.

TTFN x o

I am attempting to get to 100 hours exercise as fast as I can, I will add a ticker. Will include power walks, gym sessions, powerlifting,running, shred and other home workout elements.

Another 4lb down, 3lb officially (as I have hormonal fluctuations right now) - I have updated my ticker, 26lb in 7 weeks, so right on track for 30lb in 8 weeks, which I am chuffed with. I know a stone a month is typical for VLCD, and I am training, so taking that into consideration am pleased with the rate and am not seeing my hard earned muscle going anywhere! So pleased with the results currently

Chit chat for Wednesday!

Today I ate slightly later and found this helped to decrease my hunger. I will be trying this again, Had my first pack at 1pm, second pack at nearly 4pm. Then nothing else until gone 9pm. No hunger at all, think I normally waste packs during my ravenous morning time - 7am-12 noon seems to be hungriest for me. If I tide over this period with water it really seems to help. This is from a person who hates water, I am learning to think of it as a part of every meal. If I have a bar, I cut it up small and have at least 750ml water alongside it.

Enjoying my water flavouring as a treat in the evening, These come in 100g pots - which has lasted me over a month (use no more than a teaspoon per big bottle of water - either 750ml or 1 litre). They are strong and sweet, so you can use a small amount.

Marks do an ace 1 litre bottle of water with a sports cap which is fantastic for anyone dieting!!

Feeling good and drinking loads at the moment, in an attempt to keep any hormonal water retention at bay!!

Onwards and downwards!!
