WEEK ONE IS A SUCCESS!!!

After 6 days on the new diet I had lost 7.5 pounds. This mind you is without one ounce of exercise. (that starts in week 5) Then came “Binge Day”. I was really surprised. I was supposed to eat as much as I wanted of whatever I wanted. The amazing part was I didn’t want very much. At my favorite breakfast joint, I ate only half of what I usually ate. For dinner we ordered my favorite pizza. I usually eat half of a large pizza. I only managed to eat 2 pieces. I bought a pint of my favorite ice cream, usually a one sitting affair. I ate less than a third. I’m proud to say that I did knock down the entire package of Double Stuffed Oreo Cookies by the end of the day along with a pint of Promise Land milk. I topped the day off with a Cadbury Royal Dark chocolate bar. All-in-all, a great day of eating.

So the final result for week one.

I lost 5 lbs. No measureable change in the waistline. At this rate I could reach my goal in 7 months.

I spent a good deal of Sunday cooking for this week’s meals. I cooked 8 Steaks, 4 beef patties, 6 chicken breasts and 10 chicken leg quarters. Tonight I’ll cook up some lentils and black beans and we’ll be ready to go for the week.

Thanks for all your support.
