Day #2

Alrighty, so it is nearing the end of day #2 and I am still feeling pretty strong. Last night we went to a party where they were serving hamburgers, hot dogs, ranch dip and beer. Four things that top my favorite foods list. But I refused! I even refused a slice of birthday cake and I thought that might have been the most difficult thing I ever had to do. It seems like the highlight of my day is my "big" meal (the lean green meal which consists of a meat and veggies). And I am SO HUNGRY by the time I eat it! I can also have eggs in lieu of a meat, so today I decided to have an Eggbeater omelet. I am allowed two cups of Eggbeaters which I could not even finish! I added 5 sliced black olives and half a cup of sliced white mushrooms and it was GREAT! I am allowed one snack a day which can be a pickle, four celery sticks, the snacks that Medifast provides or a short list of other small snacks along the lines of celery. (ugh) I had the Apple Cinnamon crisps today and they were really good! I had a chocolate shake for breakfast and it really did supress my appetite for the better part of the morning. The good thing is I can have an unlimited number of diet drinks! They say the first three days are crucial and if you cheat, its like you are starting all over again. And by the end of two weeks you should lose your carb craving....hmmm...but what if I'm a carb-a-holic??? My mom said she lost 18 lbs. in her first month on this diet. That would be AWESOME....Anyway, until next time!
