DAY 5...the hump is gone baby GONE!

Alright everyone...now I'm not hungry AT ALL and have to remind myself to eat our delicious and inviting food. Not good for a food snob to have to eat all that packaged, pulvorized crap, but that's another post.

Worked our tails off today at a weddin', without much appreciation, I might add. Ran around, never sat down except to drive there and home and honestly, it was the hardest thing I've done in awhile. Our truly heavenly food was everywhere...the sites, the smells, the compliments, oh, and Dana shoving bites of the deliciousness into her mouth in my face. I tried to stab her on more than one occasion. That wasn't the hardest part Dana, don't feel bad. Hah, like you do anyway! The hardest part was the not snacking with the crew on down time and during prep, which I didn't realize I did a TON of. Sliders with pepperjack and chipotle mayo!!!!!!! Our mini pulled pork sandwiches!!!!!!!! The cheeses, the homemade breads (the smell of the breads coming out of the oven almost made me go postal- sorry Dad). Again Lisa and I dined on celery stix and a few cucumber rounds...water, a strawberry "shake"- incidentally the only reason that I can see to call it that is that you have to actually SHAKE the dry powdery lumps out of it or they stick in your teeth. Yum.

I did splurge on a tiny glass of cabernet...heaven, even in a plastic cup! I came home and researched and 1-6 oz glass of red wine has almost exactly the same carbs and calories as 1 packet of Medifast drink...a brilliant trade if ya ask me! I'll take a multivitamin to regain my lost vitamins, not to worry. The mental effects of the vino were amazing and I think this little splurge may have to become a daily occurrance, really. Worth every calorie...see chart for future reference...this is a 4 oz glass, boozers, so don't get toooooooooooo excited and drink a whole bottle. That'll set you back some!
