I thought I might as well get straight into it so today was day 1 of the trial for me!
I mixed the first shake this morning, very simple, 8oz of water and a scoop of powder into a shaker and away you go. It mixed pretty well and the taste was pretty good to be honest. It wasn't too powdery like some of these mixes I have tried before and a reasonable chocolate taste (maybe this will assist my choccie cravings!)
Drinks today have been limited to water again, still a bit of a headache but I feel that it is not so bad today.
As I wasn't going home after work this evening I decided that I would have soup and a granary roll for lunch and then have my second shake after work on the go which worked quite well.
For snacks I had an apple and a handful of nuts this afternoon and I haven't felt hungry so it has been a promising start.
What I do need to get into the routine (and quickly too) is a bit of exercise as I need to raise my heart rate for 30 mins per day as part of the trial. This will start tomorrow with a trip to the gym after work and some longer walks planned for the weekend.
I will keep you posted!
Here is a pic of the shake mix - good branding I think!
