Well, after 4 days of my body pleading with me to lapse I finally did, in a massive way. I do not feel guilty about it, I am not beating myself up, I do not regret it, I feel excorcised. I am therefore transitioning to management a few days early.
At 4pm yesterday (after 3 hours of storm induced power cut) I openned a very nice bottle of red wine with the wife. I also ate some things:
Some smoked slamon
A poached chicken breast (in savory drink cooked on my wood burning stove = no power)
Two hands full of cashew nuts
12 pringles
2 prunes (not being smutty here but I really needed to induce some sort of movement!)
After that I drank a third of a bottle of Laphraig.
Some behavioral notes:
I can clearly see how people can go mental after a diet and put it all back on
I can clearly see a path back to my old way of life with nibbling, drinking, not excercising and large portions. I do not want this.
I didn't wake up feeling much different from how I do normally on the diet
I intend to follow the management from this point forward, otherwise this excercise would have been pointless. I do have a voice in my head saying "you are in London next tuesday, get a nice hotel, meet up with the London crowd and get bollocksed", I need to refocus.
Hangovers trigger me to eat, I have had 3 food packs this morning at it is 9.30am - bugger
This morning weighed 13s, 13lb
