My day was unsuccessful in sticking to eating every three hours. Today has been equally hard. The weekends are busted! I really don't know how to make this work. When the entire family is together and there are so many activities AND a holiday weekend, to boot.
REVELATION KNOWLEDGE:
Weekends are a bust. Sticking to a three hour eating regimen has been impossible. I cannot sweat the small stuff. If that means I lose less weight, then that's just the way it has been. I will praise myself for sticking to my diet food! GOOD for me! I will have to improve on sticking to the the three-hour schedule.
I also believe that I am going to have to cut back, again on my helpings. At the beginning of this diet, I thought that the helpings were skimpy. I thought I would be hungry and not satisfied, but I have been proved wrong.
This week, I am going to try smaller serving sizes. Really, I am not hungry. I am not trying to starve myself; I am just too full when the third hour rolls around. I hope I can find a good median. I like being slightly hungry but not starving. A slight hunger is a good feeling. When you drink lots of water, that also slows the emptiness feelings.
Breakfast:
No photo of the food, DUH!, I forgot during the Father's Day Celebration. We had a big breakfast at Cracker Barrel restaurant and what a fun place to eat and shop.
I did get a family picture, though.
Breakfast Menu: Two fried eggs, two turkey sausages, one slice of pork bacon, one low-carb, whole wheat toast, coffee w/half & half.
It was delicious!!! *burp*
After breakfast, we went to the movie to see Green Lantern. It was the Father's Day gift from the kids to their favorite father! I didn't eat or drink a thing. Too full from big breakfast.
Breakfast S/C Total: 1/1
Snack: None. Again, forgiveness and mercy.
Lunch:
Didn't get out of the movie until 1: 30 p.m. NOT HUNGRY! We went shopping for computer stuff.
Got home and ate a few cashews pieces, (three to be exact). Cup of coffee with half & half and 1 pkt. Stevia in the Raw.
Afternoon Snack:
My husband got Espresso malted balls as a gift. I ATE ONE! REAL SUGAR IS REALLY SWEET. TOO SWEET! I am going to count the carbs and sugars! 26g carbs/20g sugars for 1/4 cup, these were huge, over-sized pieces, too. I would say that 5 or maybe six would fill a quarter cup. 26/4=4, 20/6=4
A.F. Snack S/C Total: 2/0
Dinner:
One beef taco w/ lettuce and cheese. No salsa, no tomatoes. That's all I wanted; and that was after I went swimming.
