Okay, just a little update on the morning of day 3.
Day 2 went well. Again, the water. I need some tricks because I just struggle getting it in... I have NEVER been a fan of plain water, ever. I have consumed hundreds of thousands of gallons of iced tea and DIET COKE in my lifetime, but water? I only drink it when I have to, or on a really hot summer day with lots and lots of ice. Anyway, I need to find a way to get over this hurdle, because I think my body really needs the water included in this plan (and I'm hoping this is one of the habits that I will walk away from this food plan with...)
Food went well yesterday- and yesterday was one of those days in the past that I would have just thrown up my hands over and said- "I can't be good with food today." I was at work by about 6:30 a.m. It was a FULL day- multiple meetings, upset parents, upset staff members, discipline- you name it, it happened yesterday. Followed by a PTO board election, the first grade musical (those kids were so cute!) and a late night trip to Target for a few odds and ends needed for work. I didn't get home to eat dinner until almost 8:30. However, yesterday, I did it. I spread my food out in 4 hour intervals, I didn't eat anything that wasn't 'on plan', and let me tell you how good that chicken breast and broccoli tasted by the time I actually got to eat it! The Mr. was wonderful, as he cooked dinner last night for the kids, and then made more dinner for me when I finally got home. I think I'll keep him around.
So... just to recap...
Day 2
Food- excellent
Water- yeah, um, really not so good
Exercise- none (does working a 14 hour day count?!?)
Weight loss, as of this morning- 2 pounds
Day 3, here I come. Very nervous about the next two days. High protein (not my fave), low fat, high veggies, and NO carbs. Just gotta power through it. I CAN do this.
Have a good day....
