Starting weight 183lbs. That surprised me after all the holiday eating. I expected more; I look more, as all the sand has shifted over the years.
Breakfast: about 10:00 am
Made the smoothie using brown rice powder (couldn't find white), blue berries I had, and added a teaspoon of vanilla as I couldn't find any plain almond milk. Things were sold out at Fred's as lots of folks are also trying the plan. Had 4 great conversations with women I didn't know before, two of which were fighting over the last bag of flaxseeds.
The smoothie was thick and grainy, not at all like it is when I use whey powder and more fruit. I don't know if it is the green banana or the brown rice powder. Not bad, but could be better. I guess I can manage for 21 days. I forgot about the lemon water, but my Granny did this every morning, so know it is good to get the body going.
Late lunch/early dinner: about 3:00 pm
I like us to have our large meal mid-day. We feel and sleep better. This is something we learned on our travels. Of course as retires we eat anytime we want. We call this tea time because it is a light meal.
I made a large salad for both of us with lots of veggies. I had a leftover chicken breast so chopped it up. Yes it was 6 oz., I weighed mine and put gave the rest to Hubby. I added french parsley and basil to pep it up. A good dash of oil and vinegar and I was good to go. Really missed the crackers. Sigh.
Tea time: about 6:30/7:00 pm
Had my cup of yogurt with a bit of home made raspberry sauce, and drank my green tea. My pee will probably be green tomorrow from all the cups I've had today. Hubby had a big bowl of home made chicken veggie stew and sourdough bread. gerrrrrrrr. But I'm proud of myself as I stayed with the plan. I must admit I'm not hungry. Yet. Also didn't have the broth. I didn't want to waste all that food by boiling it down, so I'm going to buy the box kind. I can already see how that would make a soup base.
MISSED MY COFFEE
