Food
Breakfast (9:30am)
1 black coffee
Porridge: Oats 1/4 cup + Water 3/4 cup + Almond milk (unsweetened) 1/8th cup (splash)
Why only half a serving? I figured I'd be snacking throughout the day so should keep to small servings.. This was a mistake! I was still hungry after my half bowl of porridge and had to find something else:

Puffed corn - 14g serve
Almond milk (unsweetened) - 200mL
This is a cereal I really enjoy - mostly because of the fresh flavours and coolness of the almond milk. It's fabulous with a seed and nut mix sprinkled on top and makes a great replacement of oats in muesli.

I was still hungry after waiting half an hour - solution? I needed some fat! I had contemplated a tbsp of coconut cream or handful of walnuts on my porridge and had stupidly decided against them.

Q & A
Q: Weekends?
A: I have found that have a 36 hour period of eating less well once a week is manageable for continual weight loss (36 hours = Friday night + Saturday). I find this acts as a reward at the end of the week and keeps me motivated. It also takes into account celebrations etc. I'm trying not to do it this weekend because Easter has just ended, but I'll take it as it comes. This means that if you've got a big celebratory dinner during the week, this should be your 'relaxed day' instead of the weekend.
I usually don't count calories on the weekend.
