Den Første Dagen

CAUTION: I will be randomly speaking Norwegian here and there. It's on my bucket list to learn how to speak a new language and Norwegian is what I picked! Yaaa...I'm cool, I know. ;)

I'm a little worried that I'm not eating enough. I know I didn't for breakfast. The egg whites in my fridge smelled funny. So, I only had a serving of oatmeal. YES, it was flavored. I'll knock that shit off after the first week. It's not too terrible, but plain oatmeal is better for me.

For my 9AM meal, I toasted an English muffin with nothing on it. I also had 117 grams of cottage cheese. This was a satisfying meal...it was probably the carbs from the English muffin.

In between my 9AM and 12PM meal, I went to the grocery store to stock up. I've been letting my groceries dwindle the last few weeks in preparation for this diet. I got everything I needed for $129. I am happy with that. I normally spend $300 each trip. I'm not sure how long it will last, but we will see.

For my 12 PM meal, I had an eggplant burger patty sans everything that should go with it. It was good. I wished I put a piece of Swiss cheese on it, but it was too late. I also had a cup of broccoli raw. I LOVE raw veggies. So, here's my newest creation that I'm super excited about: I bought a container of Plain Fat Free Greek Yogurt and I mixed in some onion soup mix to make it a dip for my broccoli. IT. WAS. AMAZING. I urge everyone to try it!

Currently, I'm at the gym getting in some cardio on the bike. I was planning on swimming, but I forgot to turn on the dryer. Damnit. My calves are sore as hell from running that half yesterday.

I'm having a couple slices of turkey and some Swiss cheese at 3 PM. Tonight, we're celebrating my sister's birthday. I think they are having pizza. I'll be bringing my dinner with me. My family is very supportive, so they aren't going to tempt me with pizza or breadsticks...I hope! I'm having red meat in patty form, so that should help me feel fuller.

I really wanted to get in 2 hours of cardio, but I just didn't plan my time well today. I blame it on the beer and margaritas from last night. Oh well, it was worth it.

I'm sure my food posts won't be this long as I go along. I just need to keep my spirits up.
