Day 3 / Day 4

This has been, by far, the easiest thing to stick to.

Today is day 4 for us and this is going great. The food we're eating is so good, we're not hungry, and just overall we feel good. My only peeve to begin with was day 1 and only part of day 2 I had an excrutiating headache and I attribute that to the lack of sugar/carbs and my body was probably just in a slight shock mode from not having what I usally have. After that, it's been smooth sailing and no problems at all.

We're still having our scrambled egg whites for breakfast chock full of veggies and for lunch this week we've alternated salad with tuna and veggies with chicken soup (a recipe from the 17DD book). The soup, in my opinion has been the tastiest thing and I love it! Charlene says she's enjoyed the eggs. It's just amazing how you can feel so satisfied on a "diet". I was skeptical to begin with but it's really going great. Don't get me wrong - Charlene aches for a piece of bread or pasta and I seriously would love a chocolate bar right about now, but it's been easier than we thought not having those things. I think because the food has been so satisfying. We both made our own versions of turkey burgers for dinner at home and they were outstanding. Who ever thought turkey burgers would be tasty? But they most certainly are. As long as you don't cook them all to hell. Then I'm sure they'd be dry. But both of ours turned out nice and moist and full of flavor.

Tomorrow we're going to do an unofficial weigh in just to see what kind of progress we made from the first 4, 4 1/2 days. Monday will be our official 1 week weigh in to see what we lost in 1 week. I'm hoping for a good number, but even if just a pound or two, I'll be happy with that.

So...4 days down; 13 to go!
