Diet Trials : Paul McKenna

I forgot to write about my success on Friday in the office when it came to breakfast time. Every so often I will treat the guys in the office to a bacon sandwich or fish and chips, and this will normally be on a Friday as a reward for a hard weeks work.

There is a fish and chip shop in town that has started to do breakfasts and will deliver your order when you like. The menu is pretty standard with sandwiches with various fillings choosing from bacon, egg, sausage etc, then they do a standard breakfast and a “belly buster” breakfast. The belly buster breakfast comprises of 2 sausages, 2 eggs, 3 rashers of bacon, beans, mushrooms, tomato, hash browns and black pudding, followed with toast and tea/coffee….all for about £3.50. Normally I would have gone for one of these especially since a couple of the lads were proving their manhood by having one.

I ordered a bacon and egg sandwich, which arrived and I really enjoyed. Then one of my friends who works on the same business park came over beaming as he had ordered me a belly buster breakfast (not knowing that we had already ordered and eaten). I was really pleased with myself as I turned the free breakfast down even though I got the usual “Go on, go on!”.

Before I started thinking about what I eat with the Paul McKenna diet, I would have had no hesitation at all to eat the belly buster even though I had just had a sandwich. It just goes to show that the Paul Mckenna diet theory is working on me. Afterwards I didn’t feel any desire to have the extra breakfast as I knew that I wasn’t hungry and didn’t need to eat it.
