Miscalculations...
So today didn't go too badly.
Breakfast:
Two eggs
Two pieces of turkey bacon
Water
Lunch:
1/2 c. of cottage cheese
Serving of broccoli
Two pieces of turkey bacon
Water & more water
Dinner:
6oz. of chicken
Serving of broccoli
1/4 c. of cottage cheese
Water
Snack: Jello....mmmm.....
I'll admit, not the ideal breakdown. I miscalculated how much protein I had at breakfast (I thought I had four, but realized at dinner it was only three), and I only had three at lunch as well b/c I was rushing. So I had to fit in 7oz. of protein at dinner.
Menu it up...
I decided after working all this out in the evening, and remembering that I am also supposed to limit the cottage cheese to 1/2 c. a day and actually had 3/4 c. today, that I need to create my own menu for the next week. I have been sticking to everything in the book, but when I am planning off of a couple different menus mistakes can be made.
So that is my goal for tomorrow, type out one or two variations of a menu that will be easy to pull from without thinking. All my breakfast options will be 4oz. of protein, lunch the same, but also with a serving of veggies, and dinner will be 5oz. of protein with a serving of veggies.
Data & Graphing...
I also took a little time today and created a couple different graphs. One graph will show my weight loss total by week. This one I will print out and put on the fridge so I have a little extra motivation. The other graph I have labeled on my computer as PRIVATE! because it will show my current weight each week and I am mortified at the thought of anyone else seeing it, especially and including my husband.
Winding down...
So now it's the end of a long day filled with meeting the Easter Bunny and seeing Sesame Street Live in Cleveland ---surprisingly enjoyable! I've had my jello and so I think I should officially call it a night and hope for a good day tomorrow...and definitely hope to see some Ketones!
