Well a week has passed on this new diet, and have we noticed a difference?………..<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. I’ve noticed that I have been low on energy. After cycling to work three times last week with no real carbs consumed, I must say that in the final journey home I was spent. I had no energy left by the time I got home.<\/li>\n
  2. I drink more water. Now I cannot have anything sweet or bad for you, I’m now restricted to two types of drink, water and skimmed milk, which is kind of water.<\/li>\n
  3. I have cravings for things I shouldn’t eat. I could have murdered a Wispa at the end of the week, but I resisted.<\/li>\n
  4. Claire has been spending more time in the kitchen cooking the next meal, all from scratch. If it wasn’t for Jelly this diet wouldn’t be working.<\/li>\n
  5. And the most important thing ………..I’ve lost 4kg this week!!! That’s just over half a stone, so it must be working.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Okay we are now bored shitless of fish chicken and salads, but if it helps us shift our weight, then I’m sticking to it. <\/p>\n
