Wednesday, October 3. Day one. Feeling energized and excited about this new beginning, I got up early and made my breakfast - a strawberry shake. I decided to put it in the refrigerator while I got ready. I was running late for work and in my frazzled state I left the house without my shake and water bottle and because my husband is so loving and supportive he brought them to me at work so that I could "get off on the right foot". I love that man! The grapefruit that I had mid-morning held me until lunch when I enjoyed a delicious baked potato topped with turkey chili. Not bad, I'm impressed. My afternoon snack was cucumbers, but within an hour I was hungry again. Because I didn't plan very well, I did not have anymore food and I mooched some raspberries from my generous coworker. In order to meet the minimum requirement for the day, I ate 2 entrees at dinner along with a serving of vegetables and then a double chocolate banana shake for a late night snack. Tomorrow I will plan better and spread the food out a little more so I'm not feeding my face before bedtime just to meet the required amount of food consumption. I love the chocolate banana shake! One day down, a lot more to go.
