Day 3 (2-23-11)

Today started off a little weird, because I had to have some blood tests done and I had to go in fasting. So I started eating after I got home.

BREAKFAST
Long life cocktail

8 oz hot water with juice from half a lemon

2 eggs scrambled with mushrooms and a 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper and 8 oz of Cran water

MIDMORNING SNACK
1/2 a grapefruit

8 oz Cran water 20-ish minutes before Lunch

LUNCH
I used one chicken breast and defrosted it in the microwave. Then I squeezed a whole lemon on both sides with some cilantro that I had dried and crushed. And I broiled it in the oven for 4-5 minutes on each side. Then I cut the chicken into cube sized pieces and put it on top of the baby spring mix so to add some flavor and then added 1/2 Tbsp flaxseend oil. It was the BEST chicken I have had in a long time! And definitely the best that I have ever made myself. :) and I drank the 8 oz of Cran water also.

MIDAFTERNOON SNACK
1 apple

Then at 4:00 I drank 16 oz of Cran water

DINNER
I marinated two tilapia fillets in Apple Cider Vinegar and cilantro then cooked them on the stovetop. I used my small frying pan that is part of the executive cookware line of Pampered Chef. I like this pan because I don't have to use any oil to prevent sticking and that is helping with the diet. Then I ate this on top of my spring mix salad with 1/2 Tbsp flaxseed oil and half a cap cull of the apple cider vinegar and some chopped up mushrooms. And 8 oz of Cran water.

Before bed I drank a Long Life Cocktail

This chicken and fish that I ate today was so good. I still crave French fries when I pass burger king and I passes Arby's twice and wanted a roast beef sandwich. And I had some cash in my pocket on my way home and wanted to try and find something I could eat. But I also crave the good things that I've been eating. Do I have so far been able to fend off the cravings. The carb cravings are the worst, but the only problem I have had is that last night I had already eaten so my husband made some stroganof and left it on the stove. And I went to go put iron the fridge and I succumbed to the craving and ate like 5 noodles with the wonderful sauce. :( but I didn't have any cheating. I think we are definitely going to save a lot of money on this diet because I won't be doing impulse eating at fast food. :)
