day 4 and 5.

Nov 12, 2010

Well my boyfriend went to get his pain shot on Thursday - my day 4.  Did great throughout the day then, things went to hell in a hand basket - not really, but not the best.  We didn't get out of there until almost 6:00.  I had to bring dinner to a family from our church so I ended up order pizza.  Got a pizza for us also.  I had two pieces - way over my carb goal.  Needless to say, I had left over pizza for dinner on day 5.

Now that being said, all was not bad.  I have learned some lessons through this first week

1.  Staying between 1200 and 1500 calories is not all that hard when you eliminate the sugar.  Also, I am satisified with meat and veggies - no potatoes.  I am still craving sweets, but I am hoping that will pass soon.  Happens mostly about 2:00pm - my afternoon break.

2.  My protein intake has increased significantly.  I am getting twice as much protein as I usually do. 

Day 4, we had a munchie day at work.  No one brought appropriate munchies for me.  I was able to stay away from the sugar and chips so that's a plus for me.

Day 5 we had our harvest lunch at work.  I did really good all things considered - I had white meat turkey, brocolli, two develied eggs (halfs - one whole).  and some cheese slices.  Skipped the desert and bread tables all together. 

Day 6 is starting out good.  This may be the hardest day of all.  I will be at home all day (or most of it). 

Wish me luck.
