Sounds like you did great today! At first I was going to say there were a LOT of veggies at lunch, but since you only did 1/2 cup cauliflower with your IP soup you should be right on target. Nice job working the diet into your day!! You're going to do great!

B: 2 cups of half caff black coffee (we always drink half caff and I am weaning it down to be fully decaf coffee)
1 chocolate shake
L: hamburger pattie with pickles, no bun
salad bar, (greens, peppers, 2 tomato slices, radishes, mushrooms and about 6 slivers of red onion), with WF bacon ranch dressing
side of zucchini
side of asparagus
I asked about the veggies. They were very low cal on the menu and was told they drizzle olive oil when grilling, so I asked for some extra napkins and I blotted it off.
Mid Afternoon I had a grande decaf Americano from Starbucks, black and unsweetened.
D: Creamy chicken soup supplement with a half cup cauliflower puree stirred in. I LOVE this! It is sooo good and so filling. It doesn't feel like diet food, it is comfort food
unsweetened iced tea with dinner
I stopped counting today after 7 16oz glasses of water
I still need to get in one more protien drink for the day so I think it will be a late night snack of pudding.
All in all, day one was pretty easy. I felt a little edgy/hungry late this afternoon/early evening so I drank some more waster and made my cauli/chicken soup and feel great now!
Breakfast--Cauliflower pancakes!!!! Impressed! 1/2 caff coffee with choc RTD
Lunch--Big salad and BBQ ridges
Snack--after bike ride, Chocolate drink
Diner--Baked Tilapia (thx for recipe Scorbett) and steamed zucchini
Snack--trying the blueberry pudding in a smoothie
