Days 6 and 7 Done!

Day 6 Done! Yesterday was a bit of a blur so let me try to sum it up. We were supposed to eat vegetables and beef today. Blegh. So I thought I'd start the day with veggie cakes (as I said I would on my last post) but my zuccinis were bad and then I had a rough morning with the baby, so by the time 10am rolled around, I was starving, and irritable and the baby was driving me nuts, and so I figured that I needed to eat before I snapped. So I hate to say it but I had some rice pudding. I felt awful about it, but I also didn't want to lose my temper on the baby. Then, for lunch I redeemed myself by having tuna with celery and again some fat free italian dressing. It was delicious! And I followed it up with my soup. I was really looking forward to dinner as I got to have some more steak with stir fried veggies. Yum! And it was delicious :) My husband even had some too. Then the night went awry..My poor baby girl got the flu (from my Mom group I later found out). She was up all night long vomiting, I felt awful. Even this morning when she woke up she was vomiting and had diarrea too. Poor little baby. So, needless to say I didn't really follow the diet today..(which is the last day). Although I did choose my meals wisely anyway..For breakfast I had eggs with ham and cheese (no bread) and then lunch I had autumn vegetable soup. For an afternoon snack I had more rice pudding (delicious!) and now for dinner I'm about to make a spinach salad with grilled chicken and baked potato. I don't feel bad that I ended today this way, because I need to take the tools I've learned this week and try to incorporate them into my life anyway. After the diet is done it's up to me to decide what I eat, and so I figured today was a good test. Especially because my baby was sick, hubby was home, and I was lounging around watching movies all day.
I'm very happy I did this diet this week, I learned a lot and I'm still down 7lbs in 7 days! Now the plan is to maintain until the end of the month and do the diet once more before my sister's wedding.

I feel great! Hoping not to get the flu..ha ha. I have already noticed my clothes fitting looser and my stomach tightening up. Now the challenge is to keep away the junk during trigger times. I.e cookies after dinner...mmm cookies...ok I need to stop thinking about cookies.
