Day 39

Weight: 13 stone 8 lb 2 oz

Lost: 5 ounces

Total weight loss since day 1: 1 stone 7 lb

Ok so I'm going to start counting the ounces now. This gives me the encouragement that I am losing the weight even though it has slowed over the last few days, but on the whole this week I've lost 5 lb which I'm ecstatic about!

This morning I got to the organic market at 9.30am and saw my veg box guy Cristobal (Familia Hevilla) who put my order into 2 crates for me to take home. He is so nice and very enthusiastic about organic food.

Then it was off to the juice bar for a very healthy, freshly-squeezed carrot, apple and orange juice. El Ultimo Mono (The Last Monkey) reminds me of the quirky juice/coffee bars that I used to go to in Brighton...so it felt like home from home!

Then I thought I'd be very naughty and go spoil myself...so I hotfooted it off to Terra Sana for breakfast. The fruit salad on the menu did look very nice but I felt like having something a bit more substantial and warming, so I opted for a Middle Eastern dish called Shakshouka (poached eggs in a spicy tomato sauce with chickpeas). It was incredibly scrummy! God how I've missed poached eggs...yes I know that it's not completely vegan, but at least there wasn't any dairy in the dish.

Terra Sana (Healthy Earth) has always been one of my favourite restaurants in the Malaga province and it is often a place where I go for lunch as they serve loads of veggie and some vegan dishes.

I will endeavour not to eat anymore food until the party tonight and then only stick to vegan stuff...and of course, copious amounts of water instead of wine (for a change!)

It will be interesting to see what the scales have to tell me tomorrow, but as long as I don't overdo it tonight I should be ok.

Hasta pronto
