And a full belly too! Today marks Day 7 and it's been pretty darn easy. The most difficult thing has been cooking 3 meals a day. But ya know what? If that's the worst, I'll take washing a few extra dishes!
The official weight loss is...drum roll please...one pound!
TADA! OK, I know one pound isn't a lot but I look at it this way. I get to eat what I want every single day. I never have to deny myself anything, be it french fries, chocolate, cake, brownies, pasta, whatever. So if I can do this and lose one pound a week until I reach my goal weight, I'm a happy camper!
Today's meals were my typical morning breakfast of an omelet with mushrooms, cheddar cheese, onions and Canadian bacon. Lunch was Steak Ums sauteed with a few 'shrooms, green peppers and red peppers served over smashed cauliflower.
Reward Dinner tonight was a treat. We went for Chinese buffet. I got to graze a bit and I did good. I got my veggies in there too. I LOVE the green beans. I also had a little dessert buffet with a couple small cookies and some fruit. I left feeling satisfied and content. Can't say that's been the case in the past with other well known diets. I always left feeling deprived and irritated at not being able to really eat what I wanted.
Week One: SUCCESS! :)
