Lose Seven Pounds in Seven Days: Day Three

Day 3: Weighing yourself should be the first thing on your mind when you wake up. You should have lost again, unless you've cheated on this diet.
Get up and start on that routine. 100 jumping jacks, 100 sit ups, 50 squats, 50 lunges each leg, 20 push ups. You know the drill, nothing has changed. If you didn't already have a taste for black coffee, you should have developed one by now because we're cutting that out too.
School is more of a challenge now, your brain is using less energy because you have less, so you have to try harder to concentrate. You have to get through it though, you can't afford to screw up now. 
Today, you are allowed 800 calories, and you have the choice of what you eat with it. You can either eat healthy things and use your calories wisely, or have chocolate and take the risk of not losing weight. It's up to you to make the responsible decision here, because diets don't last forever, and you won't keep the weight off if you go back to a diet of more than 1200 calories a day. I haven't mentioned much about what to do after this diet, but that'll be discussed in day seven. I personally have never done diets, I'm a fasting gal and I have a hard time restricting, which is why I'm AN2 not AN1. If you don't already know about the different subtypes of eating disorders, look around for my next post, because it'll be about them. 
If you manage to stay under 800 calories, you can expect a loss of around 0.5lbs to 1lbs. If you gain,  but kept under the calorie limit, its water weight and you need to increase your hydration and watch your sodium.
