today was really mixed. i was so busy. it’s really tough to eat what i’m supposed to eat if i’m running around a lot.

breakfast
coco oil, cod liver oil pills
egg omelette w/feta redpepper spinach
2 pc toast (supposed to be 1)
some salad
green tea

lunch
roast beef
1pc whole wheat sour dough bread, mayo
banana

dinner
chicken couscous w/veggies
tea (had sugar in it – no no)
hummus w/white bread (white bread – no no)
glass of wine

i was overfull after dinner. i’m hungry now, but it’s past bedtime, so i’m just going to go to sleep.

overall, i guess it’s not a terrible day, but i know i felt better and felt more sure that i would lose weight when i was following the real spirit of the food plan. i need to figure out some meals on the go that fit the plan better.

i’m going to start the day tomorrow with steel oats and grape fruit and really try to stick to the plan for the day.

i played tennis today, but i did not do nautilus. i’m going to try to fit that in tomorrow. plan is to do it sat, mon, thu. so now it will be two days in a row if i manage to squeeze it in.

off to bed.

i knew today was going to be tough because of working. i ate the proper breakfast (see last entry), but then it got late for lunch, and i made tuna salad, but it wasn’t really that healthy, and i didn’t have anything else, and i didn’t have the coconut oil 20 min before. then i had 2 cookies and a couple chip. definitely not on the plan. then i snacked a little on some chicken dishes i was making at work. it wasn’t a lot, but this was all against the plan, where i’m supposed to have three good meals, preceeded by the coconut oil. for dinner, i did have the oil, and a big salad, and some salmon. i was still hungry afterwards and had some cream cheese on a little piece of whole grain sour dought bread, and some ginger ice cream with coconut sprinkles. it’s probably okay, but i feel off-track. i’m hungry again, so i know things are off, because when i ate just the way i was supposed to the last four days, i was never hungry.

i’m going to try to be really good tomorrow. not going to give up. i’ll weigh myself tomorrow too.

i really want to stay dedicated to sticking with the plan. if i go off, i want to just get back on and keep going.

the other problem tonight was that i was feeling anxious, so i wanted to eat bad food. guess i didn’t give in, so that’s good.

that’s it for now.

i got up late yesterday and it threw my schedule off.

breakfast
coco oil
steel oats w/maple syrup
2pc bacon
1/2 grapefruit

lunch
coco oil
pork chop
salad

snack
1/2 grapefruit
banana

dinner
coco oil
5 meatballs
poppyseed cole slaw
thai black rice

this morning i had to get up early, and it was kind of a struggle to eat a big breakfast, but i did it:

coco oil/cod liver pills 20 min before
2 pc bacon
2 eggs
1 pc sour dought whole grain toast
1/2 grapefruit

i’m nervous about sticking to this today because i’m working all day. need to be sure to have the full lunch.

that’s it for now. be interested in seeing if weight goes down on thurs. when i go to gym for nautilus. oh, played tennis last night, and took dog for walk yesterday.
