I've lost six guinea pigs!

No, not a careless mistake or a case of animal cruelty but a success in terms of weight loss!  I'm sticking to this diet like superglue and it seems to be paying off.  So far, since starting my new project, I've lost six pounds in eight days - the equivalent of six guinea pigs!

My stumbling block on this diet is that I don't like the porridges! They're way too sweet for my liking - I've been feeling like Goldilocks the past few days trying the varieties available and not liking any of them so far.  I couldn't face making one this morning so it looks like I'll be eating soup for breakfast, lunch and dinner until I can eat the bars!  oh well, another fortnight won't be too tough and if the results continue to be positive, it should all be worth it.

I'm really quite impressed with my willpower today.  I usually struggle when working from home, I tend to pick on things most of the day.  The phrase 'kitchen pickers wear bigger knickers' is very true in my case!  However, today I managed to stick to the diet 100% and despite seeing two friends for cups of tea, I didn't stray towards the biscuit tin once.  I'm a reformed character!  Here's hoping it stays this way!
