Week 1 Day 1

Oh my oh my. Well my appointment started out by my almost missing it. Thanks to walking out of the house without my phone & then forgetting that I hadn't "sprung" my vehicle clock forward an hour. I realized I was late for my appointment when I was at my friend Hollie's house & I looked at the time. 11:45. My appointment was at 11:15! I called Tim who was super understanding & he let me come in for my appointment. After getting my paperwork out of the way, he measured me & I weighed in. I weighed in at 3 lbs less than my 2012 beginning weight. Wow that makes me so sad. We won't even say what my measurements were. No wonder my pants won't fit, good grief. If I have learned only one thing through this journey it's that my body is so very carb sensitive. This will not be a fix it & forget it situation. This needs to be a rest of my life, lifetime change. Goodbye pasta. Goodbye glazed donut. Goodbye bread & potatoes. Goodbye American Cuisine. Ok maybe that was a bit dramatic but I really do need to make some lifestyle changes. At least now I have a starting point. I'm actually starting back on my diet tomorrow although today I tried to be good, after my meeting. I ate an egg salad sandwich with bread. Did I say I was being good? Hey, at least it was only 45 calories a slice! I was still hungry, after eyeballing the left over coffee, I made a frozen cappuccino with the cappuccino drink, coffee & ice blended in the blender. Yumm it was good & hit the spot. For dinner, I grilled a whole chicken on the grill for the fam but I only ate the breast meat, no skin. For my side I sautéed zucchini, onion, & green pepper in some grape seed oil. That was delish also. :) I needed some protein so I drank a muscle milk that my husband had in the fridge. Remember, I'm not starting IP until tomorrow.
