Just when I feel I am starting to get the hang of the Elimination Diet http://londonpersonaltrainingstudio.com/ Dax Moy goes and shakes thing up!! supposed to boost our fat loss and metabolism!! But I have decided for the time being to just stick to the original ED Dax has said its optional and I do feel like I should be going for it and giving it my all but I am trying to make this a life change a journey and not a race so as I feel like I am still learning I will carry on.
Breakfast today was a delicious orange muffin, and yoghurt and a glass of orange juice really enjoyed that tried something new again for tea we tried Dax's Persian chicken with some chilli saute potatoes and baby sweetcorn and mange tout mmmm.

Feeling good at the minute tummy definately feels less bloated trousers fit nicer yey!
Breakfast was fruit and yoghurt today as a bit of a rush this morning, lunch was yum had cajun hash browns with scrambled eggs and fresh orange juice really enjoyed that.
Managed to go for a swim tonight as I am really achey still only did about half an hour but really enjoyed it then treated myself to a freshly squeezed orange juice when I would normally have a latte and biscuits so felt really good.
Struggled a bit with will power tonight though had to go to parents evening at school got home about 7pm absolutely starving planned to have salmon with roasted vegetables for tea but knowing it would take probably close to an hour to prepare and cook etc I was very tempted to just cheat and grab something naughty and fast I mean REALLY tempted but luckily Martin has more will power and just got on an cooked it for us so feel very pleased will treat myself to a bowl of strawberries and yoghurt lol only after my workout!

Day Eight
http://londonpersonaltrainingstudio.com/
Managed much better with my water today almost 2 litres although should be 2.5l but is improving I think the hot weather is helping!
Breakfast was my usual banana eggs, then lunch I had caribbean chicken salad nice for a change although probably not one of my favourites I then finished off the moraccan turkey patties I had made sunday for tea with some sweet potato wedges.
Exercise wise a bit of a disaster didn't get home until 8pm then had to put kids to bed, tidy up, sort uniforms bags etc make some tea so didn't sit down to at until 9pm just managed a quick power circuit at 10pm before getting into bed exhausted!

Day Seven.
Day 7 of our elimination diet summer challenge find out more at http://londonpersonaltrainingstudio.com/
Started the day with my meltdown workout which always kills me it was the thought of my banana eggs and fresh orange and raspberry juice for breakfast that got me through lol.
Lunch today was smoked salmon salad after a nice walk with the dog and the kids its so lovely to see the sun shine and its been really hot today too.
Tea tonight was moroccan turkey patties and cajun potato wedges really tasty I will treat myself later to some strawberries and melon with live bio yoghurt as I had tea early.
Still have 2 workouts to do so when kids are in bed I will make a start as I have to leave 2 hours between each. I also have to get my menus organised Martin is on nights so I have to plan what meals will be ok for him to reheat and have them ready.

Day Six
Day 6 of Dax Moy's 2011 Elimination Diet Summer Challenge http://londonpersonaltrainingstudio.com/
MMM banana eggs for breakfast really tasty, could definately be a new favourite! also tried smoked salmon fish cakes and salad today another really tasty recipe I am really enjoying all the natural flavours of the fruits and vegetables as I can actually taste them now as they aren't covered in sauces etc.
Struggled a little to get all my workouts done busy day saturday kids have ballet and swimming lessons plus its my day to get all the housework and errands done, its not that I don't have the time its just spacing out the workouts that I struggle with if they could be done back to back at night I would be fine...... actually no I would be a pool of sweat and tears and exhaustion on the floor lol.
We were invited to a BBQ and party but had to decline my will power isn't strong enough to resist just yet and I know what I am like it would be oh 1 glass of wine won't hurt and after 3 I would start nibbling the desserts so best to stay away just yet.

Day Five
http://londonpersonaltrainingstudio.com/
In a rush this morning so didn't get my workout done before work and only managed to grab a yoghurt for breakfast which isn't ideal as I was hungry the rest of the morning but didn't have time to eat anything so must make sure I get to bed early enough that I can get up earlier I know what I should be doing its just actually doing it thats the problem lol.
Have managed to persuade hubby to join in too so he is starting tomorrow he has done this before and got fantastic results he did Dax Moys 30 in 30 challenge summer 2009 there should be a blog on here some where with some fantastic before and after pics will try to find it for motivation. Ha just found his photos!!
Made Bombay chicken for tea OMG amazing!!! it was delicious although note to self don't overdo the curry powder next time.

Day Four
Feeling ok just lacking a bit of motivation must try to get to bed earlier we are supposed to be in bed by 10.30pm at the latest but there just aren't enough hours in the day so that is something else I need to work on.
I am still enjoying my food had another banana & orange muffin for breakfast with a bio yoghurt then had a chicken salad for lunch and fish for tea I am finding that i'm not really hungry between meals but do carry an apple and some cashew nuts with me just in case I get tempted by anything.
I have been reading all the blog posts and discussions by all the others doing the challenge and it does really motivate me I am resisiting the urge to weigh or measure myself although I know a few of the others have done and some great results already, I don't really feel any different myself yet but we will see on weigh in day!
