I made it too, Cindy with extra lean ground beef and beef consume instead of the broth. I was thrilled with how it turned out and it was so easy!! I totally agree...it was YUMMY!!!!

I'll be making that one again for sure!!

OK so I blew it. I got Cindy's bug and I turned into a big baby and decided I needed real food.
I failed at this reintroduction to my tool but I gained some valuble insite. Just cuz the weight is gone, I am still a MO person. Kinda like a dry drunk. I am an adict. I have said it before, in conversation, in word, here but I think I am just now coming to a true, deep understanding of the truth in myself.
I will get in control, I am learning.

Thanks for listening and to all you folks who completed the entire 5-days, My hats off to ya, YOU ROCK!

Lori,

Don't look at the current situation...look at the big picture! You ROCK too! This wasn't a diet we are on...it's a reintroduction to our pouches.

Look at how much you've lost--I think you're awesome!

Don't sweat it, toots--

Thanks Mike for the encouragement.....it means a lot! We are kinda in this, all of us, together....
"We will overcome"
I will focus on some good positive stuff..The sun is out today, a rarity in my neck of the woods, it is Friday, love the fridays....that bug I thought I had is gone, maybe the vitamins and I really feel good today!
Thanks for listening.

Love you all!
Lori

UGH... I still have the bug... but it is better then it was! Looking forward to getting on the scale tomorrow for the "real" weigh in. I have been off and on it all week and it has been pretty consistent.

Day 5

Well I'm craving fruit and crunchy vegetables. The family had a fruit salad with their meal last night and I wanted some SO bad but I refrained. So onward I go today...I can have the fruit tomorrow.

First of all I have really noticed a big difference in the amount of food I am able to eat. 1 cup is certainly filling me up. Even though I have never lost that "full" sensation in the past, what I have noticed is that I feel that fullness sooner.

Breakfast
1 cup Slim6 Kefir Low Carb Smoothie: 110 cal, 2 fat, 14 protein

Lunch
1 c low fat cottage cheese w/ splenda:180 cal, 4 fat, 24 protein
South Beach Nut Medley Bar: 150 cal/7 fat/6 protein (Ok, I caved.

)

16.9 oz water w/ crystal light

Mid-afternoon snack:
16 oz sf/ff latte: 130 cal/0 fat/12 protein
1 piece light string cheese: 60 cal, 2.5 fat, 9 protein

23.7 oz water w/ crystal light

Supper:
1 serving Italian Stuffed Chicken: 410 calories, 39 grams protein, 14.5 grams fat. (this was another winner. I used 2 pieces of string cheese in each 4oz piece of chicken breast. It was tender and moist and really went down well!)

23.7 oz water w/ crystal light

Totals:
Calories: 1040
Fat: 30
Protein: 104
Water: 64.3 oz

Oh Lori, as long as you learned something I say you haven't failed. Since when is learning a failure?

I too am a food addict. Always will be. I understand and accept that but it is possible to control it and I think you are coming to that understanding. I feel and have always felt that you first need to understand before you have any hope at all of controlling.

You'll get there. I have no doubt at all.
