So, day 2 of the preparation phase...

and it's been so hectic that it's now nearly 7pm and I've not so much as picked up the Dukan Diet book to try and get my head around it.

We've had our last take out though before things "kick off", fish and chips, and you know what? It was only "ok", I think in my head I may be dieting already!

Isaac is sound asleep and Lydia is causing havoc before her bedtime, in 10 mins. Once both "babies" are sleeing soundly I will be going upstairs to our room and starting my reading marathon - it's going to be no easy achievement seeing as I need to read and digest it (no pun intended) before the Monday shop, yet I have two children to care for on my own tomorrow. One saving grace is that Lydia is going to her first ever sleep over tomorrow night, so only one baby to deal with, which will mean my evening back at 6pm - woo hoo! I still think I'm going to drag some old skills out of the closet in order to pull off completing the read in 2 evenings, but heh I'm the girl who speed read her way through 3 years of a Literary Studies degree, so this should, by comparison, be a walk in the park.

I've also decided that I am going to get James to take some photos of me from all angles to provide a visual aid to my weight loss and I may even get brave enough to post them on here!
