Day Three...Blah.

That's how I'm feeling about dieting today....blah. I knew today would probably be the hardest day, and it was. My body is in serious withdrawal from not eating sugar. I am craving anything with sugar in it or white bread. I am happy to say that I didn't give in. But it was sheer will power. Hopefully it gets a little easier. I don't know if I can be so strong day after day. Here is the report:

Breakfast:
  • 1/2 c. cereal 80
  • 1/2 c. milk 50
  • 2 scrambled egg whites 50
  • 1/2 apple 50
Snack:
  • wheat thins 120
  • 1/2 c. cottage cheese 90
Lunch:
  • 1 c. minestrone soup 80
  • clementine 50
  • yogurt 60
Snack:
  • 1 c. cereal 100
  • clementine 50
Dinner
  • Grilled chicken sandwich 400
  • yogurt 60
TOTAL: 1240

I was off on my calories yesterday so I looked up all of the food on my menu today. I also got up and walked on the treadmill for 30 minutes this morning. Next week I am going to try to do a training program - from couch to 5K in 8 weeks. I think it will be good for me to follow a plan instead of just winging it.

Today I really didn't want to exercise. I think the sugar thing is getting to me too. I am totally craving chocolate sweets and pastries!
