one step forward and two leaps back

In the market they have started selling white flesh nectarines. I had never had these before but i bought some and gave them a try.
What a surprise! They are nothing like the tangy strong taste of normal nectarines. At first they taste like nothing, but after the initial shock you realize, actually they taste really creamy! So i have been enjoying these and the lovely big soft figs that are around at the moment. The date man said that he would save al the ripest, juiciest dates from over the weekend :D

one step forward

Ive gotten to the point now, that when faced with all my old fave cooled foods, i only ever want to eat fruit. Its fruit first choice all the time which is great. I love the way they are just so juicy, and i love just living off nectarines, peaches and figs.

Two leaps back

To eat raw i have to eat lot, especially when just eating sweet fruit. My daily food bill is around £5.50.
I have had alot of expenses this month such as bills, the bf's birthday, my scooter needing an mot £30, a new tyre and switch £40, ive booked my theory £31, i owed someone £20, ive gotten a dvd out from the library and requested a book, so i owe them like £6, my fuel bill has shot up since im traveling further to work now, ive gotten dates from the supermarket a couple of times, so ive just thrown away £20 there, i need to get credit £10 and I dont have enough in my bank to cover insurance, fuel and food for the rest of the month so i have had to make a few cuts and unfortunately my eating has had to be that cut.

So i have noodles for 10p a pack and i have some porridge and bread thats what im living off at breakfast and dinner and then i'll have fruit at lunch.
Im so annoyed because its not like i even want to eat this crap.I WANT to EAT FRUIT.
I look at it and think about juicy nectarines and peaches, and i just have no interest to eat it, but ive not got a choice. Im going to have to borrow money again this month, and things are only going to get worse when i get a car.

im going to have to figure something out

The effects of being under carbed!

I was meant to got to the market on saturday to get food for the rest of the day, sunday and monday morning, but it turns out we didn't have enough fuel to get there, so there was very little in the way of fruit in the house. in fact there were some grape fruit and unripe bananas.
Id managed to find some food for saturday and sunday morning, but after an hour of horse riding i was starving and i knew there wasn't enough food to sustain me. I know that it is more to get enough carbs than to starve yourself so i had some porridge.

I really regretted it that night and i wish i hadn't so today i really made sure i had plenty of food this evening! The only problem is that i spent £8 with is normally like 2 and a half days worth of food from the market. Money is tight already, especially as i have to pay for a new tyre and switch for my crappy scooter!
Im also going to get a car soon too.

anyway...

i loaded up on dates, dried apricots, mango and oranges and im stuffed! which is good...because i dont want to eat anything else!

As much as i LOVE this diet, it can be so damn hard sometimes!
