Day 1 on the miserable part of this diet (the first 2 days of eating whatever I wanted were cool but caused me to gain 4 pounds – so it BETTER work!) and I am on my first meal.  I think the biggest change will be learning to retrain my taste buds to handle bland and sometimes harsh tastes. Oh how I miss the luxury of oils and dressings to snaz things up. I keep repeating to myself that food is fuel and should be regarded as such.  But red velvet cake is fuel too and it tastes so good!

I made it through my lunch. All the way through and I am still hungry.  I have an apple too, but saving that for the afternoon in case I want to gnaw my office mate’s arm off and I find myself in a ‘break glass in case of emergency’ situation.  I know I can do this. It will just take commitment and attention.  Is it bad that day 1 is causing me to much trouble? or is that normal? I am going to go with normal.

Did my starting weight an measurements and very much looking forward to the results of the extreme limitations I am going to be putting myself through. I am hoping I start feeling the difference in my clothes sooner rather than later.  Tired of squeezing in. Can’t wait to share so stay tuned!
