I had good intentions. I went out shopping right before I left, prepared a lunchbox full of great induction-friendly foods. I was really looking forward to the food, really ready to do it.

Unfortunately, it wasn't until I was an hour to the airport that I realised I'd forgotten my food. Apparently, getting up at 5am and leaving 20 minutes later had gotten the better of me.

I tried the best I could on the flight. They always bump me up to first class, so the food is always much better. I had a salad and shrip-chilli soup for starters, the entre was chicken in red wine with rice (I just skipped the rice) but dessert got me. They brought out an ice cream sundae bar. It was too tempting.

Since then, I won't lie - I've eaten rice, bread, potatoes. But I've tried to keep them to small portions and focus on filling up on meats and veggies. I weighed in this morning, and I'm exactly the same weight, so I'm really happy with that! We went to Walmart this morning and stocked up on lots of induction friendly food, and I have my fiance and his mother joining me. My fiance has been teaching me to cook all these foods, and we had a meal seasoned chicken and mushroom meal for lunch.

I'm still on track!
