Amy – 155.6 (-0.0; -16.7 Total)
Well, it’s day 28 and officially 4 weeks
into the diet! Still no change in weight
today (guess bathing suit shopping doesn’t burn as many calories as you think
it should!) So today is the day I take
my second set of measurements. After the
first 2 weeks I had lost 6.5 inches and now after 4 weeks, I have lost a total
of 13.5 inches! I lost another 1.5
inches in my waist, my chest and my left thigh, another inch off my hips and my
right thigh, and ½ inch around my neck.
Still no change in my calves, ankles, or upper arms (ugh!) or my bra
line.
After 3 cups of coffee, I had my standard
breakfast of strawberries and stevia at 11:30 am. At noon, I had lunch of baked chicken with
provencal herbs and a salad with cherry tomatoes and Walden Farms blue cheese
dressing. It really sounds like I eat
the same old thing every day, but it really is quite good. I have an orange at 3 pm to hold me until
dinner.
For dinner, I am going to have to fudge a
bit and choose a dish that will be somewhat ‘diet friendly’ and hopefully this
won’t throw me too far off the track. We
are taking a friend to the opera tonight in Chicago and having dinner
beforehand, so it will have to be a little splurge… I opt for the ‘ploughman’s
pie’ which is really a mini quiche (about 3 inches in diameter) with broccoli,
asparagus and bacon, so I figure I’m getting eggs. This is accompanied by a very simple side
salad of green leaf lettuce and a very light dressing that is already mixed
in. And I’ll fess up to having a glass
of wine with dinner… We have a really nice time this evening so I’m thinking
this little detour was worth it.
