| Tonight's dinner: flounder with "Mediterranean Rub" and green beans. And the ubiquitous green tea. |
Today's weight: 214.6 lbs
Goal: 190 lbs
My prediction for tomorrow's weight: 215.4 lbs
Whatever the reason, it seems like my body feels like taking a step back for every two forward. Fine with me, either way it's coming out to about a pound a day and we're halfway through the first "cycle".
Now if I were a bit braver, I'd have taken one of those "before" pictures of myself with my shirt off and in as unflattering a pose as possible, two days worth of stubble, etc, like they do on TV to make it seem like a huge dramatic change when you see the "after" picture. But since I lack the guts to actually post something like that of myself, this is a moot point.
Breakfast today:
2 hard boiled eggs
Grapes
Green damn tea
Lunch:
Leftover flamenco salad (a Spanish recipe that both met the 17 day diet requirements and was tasty, a quite shocking thing indeed)
Green tea
Dinner:
Yet another white fish with various things added to make it more tasty and interesting than yet another boring piece of white fish
Green beans
Green tea
We cheated a tad with the beans tonight and added a little lemon juice. I think there's a point in every diet where you decide to cheat a little here and there. It's probably also the same point at which people often go off these miserable things. So far though, this is the one we've been able to stay on the longest, so I suspect having the occasional raisin after 2 PM won't break our resolve (fruits after 2 are a no-no on the 17 day diet, I think something along the lines of feeding Gizmo after midnight happens).
