Feel super weak

I had insomnia again and woke up around 3am. I tossed and turned, got a little sleep until 5.45am.

I had  no energy and my stomach was growling with hunger overnight.

Once I had a coffee with milk and grapes I felt a little better. About mid morning I eat two eggs with salad and a table spoon of mayo. It really helped.

I had the energy to go for a near 10km walk. After 7km I started feeling weak but kept going until I got home. I was so exhausted and finally went to bed for about 2 hours. MFP says I burned 711 calories,

 I'm actually struggling to eat now which is sort of a good thing. I have no appetite for food at all, but I have to eat to keep my energy up. I drank loads of water and herbal teas too. I think I've even dropped a few ounces during the day, but tomorrow's scales will tell me the truth

I went for a 40m run - My Fitness Pal said it burned 380 calories and I walked for an hour on errands.

I stagnated for 9 days without loosing a single pound and finally, I'm down 1 KG. I hate that it takes so long to achieve any weight loss.

3 weeks to loose 10lbs

So, I have to get down from current weight as of this morning, 76.4KG to 72KG. Basically 10lbs and I have 3 weeks to do it in.

I have never been able to loose 10lbs in 3 weeks. I can't even manage it in 2 months, with exercising everyday so how I'll do it in 3 weeks I don't know, but I'm going to try. Not eating carbs is giving me insomnia so over the last few days, I've had a small glass of wine, which still keeps me under 1000 calories. It doesn't take much to knock me out as I have a low tolerance for alcohol.

As of Friday 11th May I've kept my calories under 1000 but yet, it's now Thursday, a whole week later and the scales haven't moved. Some days, I've been under 600 calories, but for the most part I'm averaging 900 calories a day. And still no movement on the scales!!! GRRRR

My body loves holding onto fat!

So, to keep me on track, I've decided to blog.

Today, I went for a 35m run. It took me 40m. My under armour app says I burned 380 calories. When I came back from my run, I'd lost 0.8KG. Nearly 2lbs in water!
If I'm still the same weight tomorrow i'll be really pissed.

Today's food:
Breakfast - Approx 200 calories
Decaf coffee with milk
Coconut milk latte (bad I know)

Lunch - Approx 350 Calories
Cup of peas
Mixed salad leafs
1 chopped Tomato
Quarter cucumber
Hand full of Green beans
Olive oil and balsamic dressing
Chicken breast

Dinner - Approx 200 calories
100g cucumber
100g green beans
50g king prawns
Hot sauce

Snack - 100 calories
Handful of peanuts

As alcohol slows the metabolism, I'm going to try and sleep tonight without it as a sleep aid and see what tomorrow brings. I sound like a right alkie lol
