Day 2

Well I have managed to make it through days one and two and still remained very excited about this diet. I have been wanting to blog all day but Tuesday is always busy for my family. I was encouraged to blog about my day 2 when I saw I had two "followers". I figured if they were interested enough to check in on me then I should not skip this today. Well yesterday ended very well with me doing and eating what I was suppose to. I did have coffee in the morning but I had said I was going to because kicking sugar and caffeine seemed to be too much of a battle especially on "spring forward" week. I also said I could have 1 diet soda a day! This is a huge difference from the 5-7 I am use to drinking. (I know that is bad but it is true.) Yesterday I ate eggs and tomato omelet, yogurt, grapes, tuna on top of tossed salad, strawberries with grapes, chopped veggies with Greek yogurt dip (mixed a little hidden valley ranch w/ plain Greek yogurt), grilled tuna, grilled asparagus, roasted broccoli & cauliflower w/ Italian season, & a Greek yogurt. (in that order from breakfast through final snack). I also went for a ten min walk and 35 min run. I had a good day. However my husband ended up with a killer headache and had to go to bed. I was very worried he was going to give up but he got up this morning and said " what are we eating today?" Yeah!

So today I had another great day. I forgot to cook my eggs this morning and was about to starve for lunch. How could I forget a meal? I bet that doesn't happen again. Today I ate yogurt with blueberries, chopped veggies w/ yogurt dip, tossed salad w/ chopped turkey breast, apple, chopped turkey breast slice, grilled chicken breast, grilled asparagus, roasted broccoli, carrots, & cauliflower w/ Italian seasoning, Greek yogurt and 3 pickles. I went to the gym and did weights for 45 min. Today I really want another cup of coffee but I had to tell myself no. I would have loved another soda too. Funny that today the drinks got to me more then the food. I held strong though. I am happy to say my hubby is still staying on track today and has been headache free. That is great because I really want us to do this together. I have already planned most of my food for tomorrow. I really feel like planning is key with this diet. You must be ready or else the convenient foods will scream at you. I also believe you need to go to bed early. This is because I want to munch more the later it gets. Now with that said I am going to wrap this up and head that way . . . Because its late and I hear my hubby in the kitchen rumbling around. Lol!
