Back to work - still on Marines diet

This is becoming a typical start to the day now, 7:15 poached egg, mashed up and a cup of black coffee with sugar. 8:15 cup of black decaf with sugar. Our friend who introduced us to this diet has said that we shouldn't be having sugar, and only eat at meal times, but this for me is a step too far. I cannot drink coffee without sugar, that is disgusting. Also that the lemon cordial is not a good idea, but I cannot stand just plain water. No sauces etc., well so far that is o.k., but not ideal. This is my first full day at work on this diet and I am counting the minutes till lunch time. 11:30am just enjoyed my tomato salad, mmm. Now having a cup of black decaf with sugar. 3pm had another cup of black decaf with sugar. 5:30pm home again and dinner is 3 poached eggs on some dry toast. 8pm cup of black coffee with sweetener. I decided to give in and put up with the after-taste of sweetener and not have sugar. I will see how this goes. Well I tried it and gagged, so it's back to the sugar I'm afraid. Mary and I went for a walk to get some more salad etc. from the shops and then had the Wii weigh in. We had both lost two pounds, incredible.... Really pleased again.
