Day 8: How to Drink a Tim Tam.

Left Jaw Pain: 1/10
Right Jaw Pain: 4/10
Hip Pain: 2/10
Inconvenience factor: 7/10

Today I woke up feeling good!

I'm not sure if it's related, but I also woke up hungry! Stomach grumbling HUNGRY!
This was particularly surprising as for the rest of the week, I've had no interest in food, literally having to force food down my throat because I know I need it and often feeling a little sick in the process. To date I have lost 4.5kg - fair effort in one week! But given the attack of the Prunes it could have been a whole lot worse!!!

Now, as only Murphy's Law could dictate, with my teeth intricately elastic banded together I get insatiably hungry. The irony is not lost. 

Today has become a ceaseless repetition of removing elastics, carefully spooning puree food into my mouth and then when I 'm done, extensively cleaning and rinsing my mouth out and rewiring it. It has been rather frustrating and slow (hence today's inconvenience factor). 

I feel like I have been eating non-stop like a certain caterpillar in the children's book.

Today's food intake:

2x Weetbix with yoghurt & milk
2x Up and Go
500ml Apple, carrot, celery and ginger Juice
250ml Orange and Pineapple Juice
250ml Orange Juice
1L water
2x Cups of Tea
200ml Leek and Potato Soup
200ml Pumpkin Soup
1/2 potato, mashed with cheese and butter
1/2 tin of baked beans (pureed)

Would you believe, after all of that I WAS STILL HUNGRY?!?!??!?!

So I concluded that I needed a sugar hit! :) Surely you know what genius is coming next! 

 
Grab a good blender and throw in:

• 2x Double Coat Tim Tams
• Good dash of Pouring Custard
• 3 scoops of vanilla ice cream
• As much milk as required to get the right consistency!

Blend, pour and off to heaven!

YUM!!! 

A few of these should stop that weight decline!
