Saturday night was another night off. This time we were told to really go for it. 1000 calories. Eat something you used to enjoy.
So we had Indian food from the mighty Lancers.
Lamb bhuna, chicken jalfresi, rice and a garlic naan.
My initial feelings were of foreboding. What a huge amount of food to eat. So full of salt and spices. When it arrived the smell was delicious and my salivary glands went into overdrive. The first mouthful was lovely - so full of flavour - but before too long I found myself a little overwhelmed by it all.
And the after affects were truly horrendous. Bloated and gassy, painful stomach, dehydrated to the point of ridiculousness. And this lasted for the whole of the next day.
I knew that my body had changed thanks to this process but I had no idea how much. I had no idea that I literally wouldn't be able to stomach this type of food any more but do you know what? I don't care. I don't care that I will not be eating this sort of thing again, I don't care that I won't be punishing my body like this again. I feel so clean thanks to FIYL that I don't want to fill myself up like this again. I'm happy with the way things are now and I'm happy to make the right choices when it comes to the food that I choose to eat.
