  • Hi

    I didn't eat everything I said I was going to yesterday because I simply wasn't hungry enough. Anyone else notice a shrinking appetite during Phase 1? Which is a good thing but bad because my veggies suffered. My appetite seems to be more normal today & my scale is kinda wonky

    Bfast: 2 1/2 coffee w skim milk & Splenda. Tomato juice. Cottage cheese w cinn & Splenda.

    AM Snack: Bean muffin

    Lunch: Egg salad in lettuce leaves. (I never made & ate this yesterday just PB & celery for lunch)

    Afternoon snack (if I need it): Celery sticks w herbed cream cheese or maybe a couple slices LF cheese

    Dinner: LO black bean chili w LF cheese. Skim milk

    Dessert (if I'm hungry) PB cup & def herbal tea w Splenda
