Ruth's Daily Check-in
Posted: Wed May 18, 2005 5:16 pm
Stats: Height: 5-8; Weight: 175; Goal: 157 lbs, work out five times/wk
Weigh in once a month: Next WI scheduled for June 11
History: Started No S on May 9 and had a strict week of three meals, no S's, with a few bouts of manageable hunger pangs. First weekend was eagerly anticipated. Enjoyed bean burrito, movie popcorn, chocolate bar, among other sweets, but didn't go over the falls (so to speak). Second week is going well. I've stuck to three meals a day and am learning to prepare for them as I can't eat on the fly and expect it to carry me through to the next meal. Was hungry last night after relying on soy burger/veggies to hold me till dinner
Daily Log:
Wed., May 18: Feeling strong. Non-scale victory Monday night, ate out with friends, who ordered dessert and I did not hesitate to decline, empowered by fact that I can have it on an S day. Today: Weight class at gym.

L: shrimp, lettuce, almonds, feta salad; apple; wheat tortilla

L: Spinach salad with pecans, cranberries and bleu cheese, pita pocket
D: Four pieces sushi, pita pocket, cut up fruit, lg vanilla latte (bad!!!)
Fri., May 20: Closing in on S Day! But virtually no anxiety about what to eat and I love being able to forgo diet food (ie. low carb bagels, tortillas, fake suger stuff, etc.) in exchange for something I really like for meals. Spin class, 6 a.m.
