Day 43: Need to keep this in mind

Not very motivated this morning Have been awake for 3 hours trying not to think of having to go skipping. Know that I need to go now, but so weak and wimpy may now need to eat first!

(40 minutes later).....
Then I read Patrick's e-mail and thought GREAT.... only 7 x 2 minutes = 14 minutes, 10 minutes less than I have been skipping, but then motivation fizzled out quickly as I stood up and nearly collapsed from weakness. So, now feeling thoroughly disappointed with myself. Missed my cue to burn more fat, realised that I should be slightly less fanatical and take life a bit more as it comes. Decided to have breakfast and for the first time was uninspired by my brown rice and veggies with a boiled egg. Even adding strawberry balsamic vinegar to my rice/veg concoction to give it more taste didn't help much. Looking forward to my snack now. Will exercise later this evening before dinner and just go with the flow today. Was so tired from 5 hours of shopping in Glasgow yesterday that my whole body hurt this morning more than it usually does.

Am a bit afraid that eating as much veg as I want will mean that I don't eat enough. Not sure if sticking to my previous quantities and then adding more if I am hungry is the way to go, or just reduce if that is what I think I am interpreting my body wants.
