I can see I’m losing people/interest with these posts. Don’t worry, some pretty photos are coming the rest of the week. Stick with me – I just have to do this!

salmon, salad and asparagus

This was last night’s dinner. Salmon, Salad with Feta, Zucchini and Light Italian dressing, and steamed asparagus. I have to say, I could totally be on Hell’s Kitchen*. I mean COME ON!! THAT is a beautiful dish. Too bad I hated the salmon. (Fact about Rachel: Hate’s all seafood except for the occasional Maryland hot crab dip which is mainly cream cheese anyway) But Brian liked it, so I guess I cooked it well – a little bit of dill weed seasoning, slight honey drizzle and cooked in a teaspoon of olive oil.

*Speaking of HK, Thank goodness Jen is gone!!! And did anyone see the preview for next weeks? I almost don’t want to watch because I don’t want to see Christina go down – I truly think she’s the best chef out of the three choices. I hope they just edited it to make it seem worse then it was.

Yesterday was an odd day as I felt pretty darn nauseous from around 1:15 pm to 2:30 pm. It was so severe at certain times. I actually think it is a result of these fiber pills I was taking – so those are out of the program. I also did cheat a little last night as I had done so good all day and was so low on my calories. Kristin, my diet buddy, said I could have a hoho so I had one, 125 calories. It tasted awesome. Then I felt sick. Basically when I’m eating less like this and so much of it is healthy, I’m even MORE conscious of my stomach pain if that is humanly possible for me. So that’s a big problem with this whole thing.

Day 3 Menu:

Breakfast: Tomato Egg White Omelet (I’ll be substituting Day 4′s menu actually, low fat cottage cheese and fresh raspberries)

Snack: 10 almonds and some dried cranberries

Lunch: Roast beef Reuben and salad — yeah this will be more like an open faced turkey sandwich, and salad with some zucchini and little steak pieces in the freezer

Snack: Strawberry Yogurt Protein Smoothie (I really want to do this, but I’m not sure how to make this smoothie last until mid-afternoon as I’d have to make it at lunch. Any suggestions??

Dinner: Chicken Burrito with Rice & Beans (I dont know if I have all the ingredients for this dinner, so I’ll be improvising)

Workout — Tonight I’ll be turbo sculpting (weight training) My side still hurts from the first workout which is so bizarre. I must have been WAY more enthusiastic then I even realized :-)

I'd love it if you subscribed to my RSS feed.
