On Sunday, January 5th, I bought a bunch of fruit and veggies at the grocery store so that I would have plenty to snack on. I soon realized that I was going to need much more than that because pretty much nothing in my house was healthy or acceptable! We are very on-the-go eaters and Casey does not like much of anything that is green or fresh, ha ha. I could be fine eating mac-n-cheese for every lunch and cereal (Honey Bunches of Oats with Strawberries is my fav!) for breakfast AND dinner! Because we both work several nights a week, there's not many meals that we sit down and eat together. And most weekends we eat out, so that's been a big change this week, too!
Day 1:
- I woke up excited to start my challenge and then…I made the Fiber Drink we are supposed to drink days 1-3 and 8-10. Oh. My. Gosh. That thing was GROSS! I had no idea what to do to make it better on that first day so I just spooned, yes I said spooned it into my mouth. It was as thick as applesauce, but it didn't taste good. At all. Sawyer saw me eating/drinking it and asked me if she could have some. I let her try it and she said "Momma don't drink that. It doesn't taste good." Ha ha ha ha ha…
- After I finally got the Fiber Drink down, I drank some Orange Mandarin Spark. Orange isn't my favorite flavor, but after the Fiber Drink it tasted like Heaven!
- For breakfast I had a scrambled egg and was too full to eat anything else.
- I worked out legs/butt and ran that day!
- For lunch that day I ate with my mom & the kiddos at Chipotle wear I got lettuce, black beans, chicken, tomato, pico, and hot sauce (no rice, cheese, sour cream, or chips) with water with lemon.
- I had a snack of fruit when I got home.
- For dinner I took the Omegaplex pills and then ate grilled chicken and veggies (bell pepper and zucchini with season all) with water.
- I did not have an evening snack.
- I drank plenty of water on my first day - probably 60 oz. or more
- I took the Herbal Cleanse pills at bedtime.
- I mixed my Fiber Drink with Orange Mandarin Spark this day and it was ooooohhhh so much better!!
- I drank plenty of water all day long
- I had a scrambled egg for breakfast…I know I was supposed to have more, but I was in a hurry and also super full from the Spark/Fiber Drink
- I went to Jason's Deli for lunch and got the Salad Bar! It was amazing because I sprinkled lemon juice over everything and also some banana pepper juice. I love salad's but also love salad dressing so I was kind of dreading it, but the peppers and also olives gave the salad enough kick! See my picture? It looks yummy to me even now!
- I had a small snack of Mangos covered in whole grain oats and fat free yogurt.
- I drank a second Spark that day - I needed it because I worked til 9pm!
- I had a meal replacement shake for dinner because I had back-to-back clients in the evening and no time to eat.
- I didn't have an evening snack.
- I took my Omegaplex caplets before bed
- I made a massive fruit smoothie with 2 bananas and 10 strawberries for breakfast and mixed the Spark and Fiber Drink in with that to mask the taste - it worked!
- I didn't have a morning snack
- I did drink a second Spark
- I had tuna with lemon juice and pickles for lunch on whole wheat crackers
- I had celery and raw peanut butter for an afternoon snack
- I drank a meal replacement shake for dinner
- That night I forgot to take the Herbal Cleanse caplets before bed :(
Day 4
- I was sooo glad to not have to drink the Fiber Drink this day!!

Day 6

- We ate dinner at Mi Cocina for Ginni's 30th birthday and it was tempting, but I managed to not eat chips or salsa! Yay! I got Tilapia with veggies and beans and it was good!

I didn't cheat at all my first week and I am down 3 lbs!! I cannot believe it! I have more energy and am feeling good. :) Can't wait to see how the next couple of weeks goes. :)
