Day 1

Day 1
Drank 4 cups of water before breakfast and went for a brisk walk for 30 min. 
For breakfast I had a cup of green tea and a green apple. For lunch I had a grape fruit and another green apple. For Dinner I had an orange. I've also managed to drink 4 more cups of water. 

Today was brutal, I didn't get much sleep the night before and so I suffered from major headaches all day. As you can see I didn't eat much, I didn't have much of an appetite. I was able to get some sleep in the afternoon, but woke up with an even bigger headache. Because I didn't each much all day I had no energy and just stayed in my bed for the rest of the night. 

I'm going to bed early so that I can have a headache free day. I'll be dreaming of a yummy salad bowl and some roasted veggies.

Pre-diet rant

I've never actually been on an actual diet plan to loose wait. I love food, and I just never felt the need to go on a strict diet plan. Anytime I've felt that I've gained some weight I usually just start working out and cutting out things like fast food and soda and I'm good to go. But ever since I hit 30 and the weight just keeps packing on and I'm not really doing anything about it. Well it's that time in my life where I'm getting married. I'm about to have a huge engagement party in exactly three weeks. I've bought a beautiful Vera Wang gown for the occasion in a size 10. The problem is I'm a size 12!!! Now the dress fits me, it just doesn't fit nicely. I've got all sorts of things hanging out from the top of the dress, not attractive at all. 
I'm desperate, and when you're desperate you'll try anything. Of course I googled "how to loose wait in one week", and I found a reasonable diet plan that I feel like I can go on for the next 7 days. 
So for the next 7 days I'll be documenting my meal plans and work out regiment. I'm doing this to track my progress as well as stay accountable. 
Today is Friday May 8th. I weigh 185 pounds. My goal is to go down to 175 by the end of the 7 days.
