So, I realized why you lose weight on this diet...because you FREAKIN starve to death...literally. Weighed myself upon waking and weighed 174.6...3 lbs. lighter, but am attributing it to water weight and not actual weight loss. We'll see what happens tomorrow.
Mornings are rough because I'm not a big get up and eat a big breakfast kind of person. I am a slow mover in the am. Never been a get up and go to the gym person either. I am a sleep late, hit snooze a lot, stretch, yawn, fight off the day kind of person. But now I'm having to get up earlier to fit in this breakfast thing. Today's breakfast was a cup of skim milk, cup of rice krispies (generic because I'm poor), unsweetened apple sauce, and 1/4 cup of sunflower seeds. I know 1/4 cup of sunflower seeds probably doesn't seem like a lot, but trust me when I say those seeds are tiny and 1/4 cup is a LOT of seeds. I probably will never eat sunflower seeds again. The book says to eat unsalted, roasted seeds, but that didn't really work for me...mostly because my Publix kind of sucks and didn't have unsalted ones, so I'm rocking the salted sunflower seeds.
Lunch was 3 oz. of PLAIN tuna, steamed carrots, a string cheese, and sassy water. I gave up on the sassy water because it was disgusting so I just did plain water (oh, I cheated and had bottled iced tea). I did the little midget can of PLAIN tuna which was kind of gross (I really like regular mayo laden tuna with cut up celery and gerkins) and I had no way to steam carrots so I did raw. Most of my bites consisted of a forkful of tuna eaten WITH a raw carrot to cover up the tuna taste. I had previously eaten my string cheese as a snack so didn't have one of those. Just so you know, a 3 oz can of tuna is the SMALLEST can they make. It's like the size of a silver dollar.
Dinner was 3 oz. of oven baked boneless, skinless chix breast, brown rice (which I broke down and put a little butter and a little low sodium salt on), and mushrooms. I did have an extra half glass of milk because I'm soooooo hungry! I may go to bed just so this day ends and I can wake up and eat breakfast.
I didn't go to the gym today, but Paul and I did take the dogs on a walk after dinner.
I may extend my 4 day anti-bloat diet to 5 so I can go to lunch with Paul tomorrow. They are going to Japanese and I LOVE Japanese. Of course then I'll probably feel guilty so who knows.
So, I've survived 2 days of torture. Only 2 more to go and then hopefully some genuine healthy changes in eating habits.
PS So, I go to the Verizon cell phone/tech center today and they welcome me and ask how they can help me and I say well, I have sort of a weird situation so the girl is like um okay and I say, "I kind of have an international stalker...from India. I need to know if y'all can block the number." I confused everyone in the store because who in the hell picks up an overseas stalker, but regardless they could NOT help me. Bastards. I told them I was NOT changing my number, that I will go to India first and find this person and beat his ass. And it's not even like a telemarketing kind of call. It is someone calling me from his home, multiple times a week, at various times through out the day (3 this morning including a voicemail from his child). And he doesn't speak English so I can't even find out why the hell he keeps calling me! So, if you know anyone from India who can translate my saved voicemails please let me know. Thanks!
