Hey Judy Lynn,
Yep - Friday b/c I am a broke chickadee! I have that website already and I love it! Some really good recipes on there, too!
ETA: I'm a total night owl. I don't get home from work until midnight (or later) and I'm usually up until 3 a.m. It kind of sucks for getting anything done during the day b/c I tend to sleep until noon (ugh) but, it is what it is.

Plan for the rest of the day:
- lunch with DH today, half a shrimp/mango wrap and half a roasted red pepper soup (split one meal with DH)
- canteloupe
- cottage cheese with blueberries
- Wendy;s Apple Pecan chicken salad. I looked it up and it's about 400 calories with the dressing - not bad.
- ff fudgesicle
- small bowl of multi-grain Cheerios and Fiber One if hungry
Day Ten:
MWI: 248 (darn scale is not budging this week )
Breakfast:
- small ww tortilla with peanut butter
Plan for the rest of the day:
- small tortilla wrap with chicken & lettuce
- carrotts
- canteloupe & blueberries
- crockpot chicken with muchroom sauce, some kind of noodles or pasta, spaghetti squash
- ff fudgesicle
- small bowl of multi-grain Cheerios and Fiber One if hungry
Got a little off track last night with peanut butter, but today's a new day.
Ok, I finally got the e-Book. My Kobo died last week *sadface* so I'm waiting to hear from Kobo on what I should do (hopefully send it back to be repaired/replaced!). Until then, I have the book on my computer.
I will be starting this AFTER the long weekend. It will give me time to go through my cupboards and fridge to remove temptation. Unfortunately, my mom is currently staying with me for another month or so (although she leaves for 2 weeks early next week) so there's a lot of food here you can't eat on the first cycle (or any cycle: like pop ARG!). I will have to arrange the fridge into her food and my food.
I have a serious Coke addition (Coca-cola, nothing illegal!) and I know quitting cold turkey will kill me. So, I'm going to go on a slow taper. I'll allow myself 2 cans a day for the first 17 day cycle.
Then 1 can a day for the next 17 day cycle.
Then 2 cans a week.
Then 1 can a week.
And hopefully that'll be the end of it.
So: Start date is Tuesday, September 6th.
I'll be following the meal plan in the first cycle chapter, but adjusting it for the Shift Worker diet b/c I start work at 3:30 in the afternoon.
