Where to begin...I rethought my menu from day 2 and switched things up a bit so that I wouldn't order a pizza. Maybe Fruit Punch for breakfast wasn't such a good idea afterall. Today I cut up a Chocolate Bar into about 20 pieces and nibbled while on the road with a big mug of my favorite green tea (sans my usual squeeze o' honey). Very satisfying and kept me happy with no thoughts of food for at least an hour. Oh dear. Several glasses of water later Backfatbegone and I decided we'd dine. I selected the "raved about" Chicken Noodle Soup and Lisa chose Scrambled Eggs (my least favorite meal so far). I added Tabasco to mine and chopped up some fresh dill for Leakie's eggs. She loved hers...mine? Ok, why when every ingredient is pulvorized does Medifast decide to leave the petrified chicken in pieces? It's like a dried old piece of sponge, not even comparable to jerky. What the???? I chose to try and chew the nuggets but spit most of them out, although I'm sure I need the protein. ICK. Not to worry, I wasn't starving and absolutely did NOT feel like I was going to pass out! We scrounged up some Crystal Light in the pantry and mixed some of that up for an exciting new MF-friendly beverage. Feelin' pretty good, 1000X better than day 2.
Afternoon snacks were shakes- strawberry for me, vanilla for Leakie- with a dash of SF coconut syrup. VERY sweet but tollerable.
Dinner around 5pm for me- not dying again...had my usual tiny chicken breast with 1 C spaghetti squash- tiny bit o' XVO, organic chicken stock and dried herbs, a bit of fresh garlic. Very tasty and made me feel normal for the first time in 2 days. Maybe it was the 1 plain spaghetti noodle I snuck from my family's dinner. Complete heaven and probably a day's worth of carbs. I probably put on a pound. Naaaaaaaaaaah.
After dinner snack was a rich and creamy chocolate shake, my favorite meal to date.
Think I may branch out and try some oatmeal or pudding tomorrow, although the thought nearly sends shivers down my spine.
Think we're over the hump!! Lisa's going to meet up with Coach and switch out some of our least favorites for some new flavors of things. This should help! Keep goin' ladies, don't give up!! We're making progress!!!
