Back in the saddle...sort of...
Today was the low calorie day of the rotation -- no starch allowed -- this was a tough one because I really wanted toast with my breakfast. Oh, well...
I didn't pack a big enough lunch so I was pretty ravenous by dinner time. Gotta remember to stock up on some appropriate snacks and keep them in the fridge at work. I did better with the water today, but still didn't quite get enough in to compensate for the extra coffee that a co-worker brought in -- a lovely treat on a day when it was sorely needed.
Today's Menu:
(Accelerate menu)
Breakfast -- 2 scrambled eggs, 1 mandarin orange, green tea
Morning Snack -- vanilla yogurt with strawberries, water
Lunch -- Dr. Mike's amazing taco salad (oh, how I have missed that meal!)
Dinner -- Dr. Mike's chicken vegetable soup, small green salad with carrots, cabbage, dressing (balsamic vinegar/olive oil), water
Oops, just realized that I missed the second probiotic serving...
One pair of my dress pants that was fitting "just right" when I got to Cycle 4 is now so big that they look like clown pants -- all baggy and falling off if it weren't for the safety pins I used to hold them up. It's gratifying -- this particular pair of pants used to be so tight that I had to leave the waistband button undone and they were super-uncomfortable to sit in -- really tight in the bum. Not so much anymore! Looks like I'll be doing a little shopping this week...
Greetings and felicitations!
Welcome! I invite you to join me on my journey to better health and well-being. Believe me, if I can do this, so can you!
My promise to you is no preaching, no soapbox, no lectures. This is going to be about what worked well for me -- I will comment but that's it -- take what you will from that. I figure, the book doesn't preach, so why should I? Feel free to post questions or comments -- and pass along the link to anyone who you feel might be interested. The more, the merrier!
However, I am only human...expect the occasional foot-stamping tantrum when I want chocolate...
