Today was a real turning point for me. The short of it? today was a good day. The sweet of it? No cravings, no temptations, no cheating. I now feel like I could really finish this
thing.
I’m going to keep it short because I’ve spent most of my
time grocery shopping and preparing meals for the week ahead. All I have is my lunch hour to get this thing
out so here goes:
Day 13! I can’t
believe I made it this far.
Breakfast
Rather than scarfing down my boys’ donuts and cheating as I
seriously contemplated this morning, I settled for a green smoothie and some
coffee. I’m so thankful that I stuck
with it. Once breakfast passed, I no
longer felt the urge to cheat.
Lunch
I ordered in a portobello mushroom cap with roasted red
peppers, extra spinach and a side of julienne
Dinner
I ate dinner at my desk as the plan was to grocery shop over
the dinner hour. Dinner consisted of
pistachios, two hard-boiled eggs, carrots and a green apple. I topped it off with a slice of fresh
prosciutto from the deli at the grocery store.
After trying that freshly sliced prosciutto I am never going back to pre-packaged. It was amazing!
I was motivated to cook and ready to enjoy myself. Promptly upon arriving home I set to
unpacking the groceries and cooking up some soup, the next day’s breakfast and
some home-made crackers. I took the
liberty of sneaking bites periodically.
Boy am I excited to have these meals over the next couple days.
I was so pumped and energized that by the time I went to bed a 11 p.m. I was still not tired. I think
I’m finally reaping the benefits of this whole darn thing.
Thank you to all for your support. Just 7 days to go!! And all by the book.
