Quiet day on the diet front...
Went for an extra-long walk to make up for my laziness over the rainy days -- what a gorgeous morning it was for a stroll! It was warm, sunny and it was so nice to be outside -- looking forward to doing it again tomorrow. Once at home, I spent some time doing my workout -- the crunches are killing me...
Today's menu:
Breakfast -- 2 poached eggs, 1/2 grapefruit, green tea, probiotic supplement
Snack -- Granny Smith apple
Lunch -- Dr. Mike's chicken soup, green tea, probiotic supplement
Dinner -- Dr. Mike's turkey chili (I wasn't very hungry and I couldn't face another salad, so I skipped that and drank a lot of water...)
I had a really hard time keeping my eyes open, so was in bed by 9:30 -- no chance to get the munchies!
Weigh-in #3 tomorrow morning! Can't wait to "chat" with my friend the scale -- my favourite capris were baggy today, so I'm pretty sure she has something positive to tell me...

Day 9 (Accelerate Cycle)
Nothing big to report today. Everything meal-wise fell into place easily -- guess this means I'm starting to break my bad eating habits -- and diets are all about adopting better eating habits.
Unfortunately, the "wanting" has started -- it's not out of control enough to call it "craving" just yet. It was all I could do to walk away from the bag of buns that was on the counter this morning -- they smelled so good. Then I was picking up a few things at the grocery store on my way home from work and the little bag of Doritos at the check-out sure was calling to me. I resisted -- this time -- but it was hard, because I absolutely LOVE Doritos. And I don't want to talk about the little chocolate bunny that I have stashed away so the kids don't get it...
Today's menu:
Breakfast -- 2 extra-large egg whites (scrambled), 1/2 grapefruit, coffee
Morning Snack -- 6 oz. strawberry yogurt with red grapes & strawberries mixed in
Lunch -- green salad with chicken, cucumber, mushroom, tomato, balsamic vinegar/olive oil, green tea
Dinner -- baked salmon, steamed broccoli, green salad with low-fat Italian dressing (didn't enjoy the taste of the dressing at all...), probiotic supplement
Now it's time for a little gardening...
