Day Four, Diet with Dianna

Good Day!

NOTICE: Every day, I will post my food menus and my S/C Totals, in the evenings. This will make it easier on me, time wise.  Thanks for understanding.

Yesterday was a great day for my diet. I didn't have any struggles. Sadly, I did not exercise. I just ran out of time and then it was after 11 p.m. and I just didn't have the desire to walk. My dog wasn't happy; she really enjoys her walks.

I am curious if I have lost any inches. I want to measure, but I am going to wait until I've been on this for seven days! I don't really feel any different, except for I stay full and don't get cravings.  I didn't even eat all of my meals, any of them. I left food on my plate.  I like being full and feeling satisfied without the heaviness and lethargy that occurs after eating a big meal.  A big meal is considerably smaller, but filling.

REVELATION KNOWLEDGE:
This diet has required me to plan and think. Two things that I can do but haven't really practiced, when it comes to food, in a long time.  It has been like a game, almost.  I look at food differently and amazingly, It hasn't really taken that much more time in my schedule, other than the planning.  I still have to cook and do the grocery shopping. I only have to make better choices.
I still am not liking the converting food to S/C's. I know it will get easier, but I get rushed and sometimes feel impatient. I know that this is a temporary feeling and It will get better as I get better.

Breakfast:

• Oats with 8 blueberries, whipped cream, soy milk, and Truvia. S/C=4/2
• Coffee with half & half. 0/0
• Half a Oroweat sandwich thin, toasted with butter.1/1 DELICIOUS!

Breakfast Total S/C: 4/2

AM Snack Time:  

1 cup of Cheese Popped Corn. I enjoyed this and it was fun to eat. I knew it was going to be later before I would get to eat lunch. I had some in a baggie, just in case. YIPPEE!! I can be taught.

Snack Total: S/C 0/0

Lunch:

I didn't get to make lunch until 1p.m. I made a Turkey and bacon wrap* with spinach, cheddar & swiss cheese, dill pickle relish (a very small amount) and some salad pepper rings.  I added a mayonnaise dressing with seasonings: chilie powder, cayenne pepper, buttermilk dressing powder, and smoked paprika powder.

Tortilla chips (way too many I ate a few and put the rest back.) 0/1

Huge glass of tea with lemon.
