Today's lunch - radishes, green onion and turkey

Today was a day to take a loooong walk with a friend, which felt very good. I feel like my body needed it, and even the cold wind didn't stop me from enjoying it. If I were alone, I probably wouldn't have felt as good, so that was a plus.
It is also time to bring back my eating in control. By that I mean no more cakes, except for once or twice a week. I'm not saying that because I believe cakes are the root of all evil as far as my weight goes, (totally not), but because the cakes I've baked had 20 grams of butter in them and a lot of milk. Luck would have it that I'm somewhat lactose intolerant, meaning that my nose clogs up like I'm having a constant cold if I go overboard with cheese, milk and other dairy products. Having a small nose doesn't help either.

Thus, my body needs detox from all that butter. Namely, more fruits and radishes. The problem is that I've been picky about radishes for so long, that I can't get myself to eat more than three big ones in a meal. I know that in time I will be able to eat more, but so far my stomach closes up when it's had enough.

I've decided to measure myself every eight days, so I have two more days to go before I see the progress. I resisted the urge to step on the scale because I don't want to be frustrated if the numbers are going down slower than I think they should.  
Besides, sudden loss of weight is the one thing that I don't want. I want it to go down naturally, without diet pills and other creative weight loss ideas. 

And even though it is very early to tell, I already feel lighter, and that is the most important thing.
