Breakfast: MRC cheesecake, HNS
Lunch: meal replacement bar, HNS
Dinner: 1/2 pita (30 cal), 2 oz. roast beef, 1 oz pepperjack cheese, 4 oz. cooked broccoli, HNS
water: 64 oz.
Today went very well–I think I’ve mastered the art of getting in 64 oz. of water. The key is to drink 4 glasses at once and make sure you have plenty of time to pee afterward! Seriously, this is what works for me, so I guess I’ll just do that from now on. I can never remember to drink during the day if i try to do it slowly, and I am on the move from classroom to classroom and back home and then back to campus all day, so it’s a pain to carry around a water bottle all the time. I’m also very proud of myself for packing broccoli for dinner tonight. It was tempting to just take the sandwich (I teach a 4 hour class at night on Tuesdays), but I took the extra time to weigh it and take it, and I put pepper on it because the shaker was right in front of me, and it really added a nice kick! I think I’ll eat it with pepper from now on. It really wasn’t that bad.
In fact, more and more food is just becoming food for me, which is definitely a novel thought. It’s always been a major source of pleasure for me, and I think breaking that association would cure a lot of my problems, especially my tendency to overeat. Not that I’ll never enjoy food again, lol, but I think it would be good to realize that most of the time, food will just be food.
weight at home: 195.5– I think I’ve lost my water weight; that’s 1/2 lb. lower than on Sunday. Yea!

Wow, looks like you did great today. The water thing is hard … I can’t imagine drinking 4 glasses at once! I’d in the bathroom for the next 2 hours!
Where do you find 60 calorie pitas??
