Day 8 (83.7 kg - 23.0% Body Fat)

Weight and Body Fat
Today's day 8, so let's see the result of one week on a McDiet! Interestingly, my body weight does not differ, but it had increased and decreased during this week. When it comes to body fat, it seems like I have lost at least 1 kg. Apparently I've replaced the fat by water, as I would not claim a 1 kg gain of muscular mass.

I just noticed that if it would be possible to lose the same amount of body fat over the next 3 weeks and to get the water out of my body somehow, I could achieve my "below 80 kg" goal within the 30 days. But I don't know if that's a reasonable assumption, and I wouldn't mind if it would take me longer.

Breakfast
Again, I didn't feel hungry during the morning, so I skipped breakfast. I didn't even really feel hungry at midday.

Lunch
I lunched at the McDonald's Bugis Village, but it was hard to find one at all. This area seems to be BK (Burger King) territory. I passed two or three BKs before I found the McDonald's, and the BKs are much better exposed that the McD.

I had the Filet-O-Fish with small fries. The receipt says it was medium fries, because it was the Filet-O-Fish meal, but I told them to give me the small fries anyway.

The Filet-O-Fish is the least attractive burger to me so far. For my likings, it is too soft. If I can have a Double Hamburger with nearly the same amount of calories, or even a Cheeseburger Deluxe with less calories, I'll always opt for one of the latter two.

Oh, they have Lemon Coke light at Bugis Village :-)

Dinner
I wasn't really hungry but wanted to make sure that I wouldn't get during the next few hours, so I had a single Cheeseburger Deluxe at Plaza Singapura at 7pm. Later at 10 or so, when I felt hungry again, I had the Low Fat Strawberry Yoghurt I had kept two days ago.

Calories
It's amazing, without really starving, today I only had a Filet-O-Fish with small fries, a Cheeseburger Deluxe, and a Low Fat Yoghurt, and this only adds up to 1.063 kcal.
