South Beach Phase 1 Day 6 with Weigh In

Pin It

I donated plasma today, so of course I stepped on the scale so not to be depressed at lack of progress when I went to the center.

Weigh In:  126.6
Goal: 120
Total Weight Loss: 6 lbs in 6 days.

Now, before you freak out, note again that I was not in tip top shape on day one.  I think it would be more accurate to say I lost 3 pounds in 6 days. I won't go into detail, but let's just say that I'm pretty sure I lost 2-3 pounds over the course of that first day.  Anyway--what I ate...is getting boring...

Breakfast:  Citrucel and a hard boiled egg

Workout: 13.7 miles on the mountain bike.  Every single mile SUCKED.  It was terrible and took me 72 minutes.

Snack:  Qdoba naked breakfast burrito with eggs, chorizo, queso, and pico de gallo.  I shouldn't have done the queso, but oh well, I didn't think about low fat vs. full fat until I brought it home.  It was delicious.

Lunch:  1/2 c SBD black bean soup with some chopped green pepper and a little cheese.  It was gross and I couldn't bring myself to eat more than 1/2.

Snack:  15 peanuts and a diet A & W Root beer.

Dinner:  Stuffed Pepper Salad--canned light tuna in water, light Miracle whip, chopped dill pickles, tomato, green pepper, all on top of spinach.  It was okay.

Dessert:  SBD Baked Ricotta Custard.  This is delicious, and I don't see how it serves 4 people.  I put it into two 2 cup Pyrex dishes and we shared the first dish after dinner.  I could have easily eaten it alone, and am now stuck sharing the second dish with D while we watch a movie tonight after Baby T goes to bed.

MyFitnessPal says I have nearly 700 more calories to eat today, and about 100 before I get to the goal of 1200.  I know I need to eat something, but nothing sounds good.  I'm getting really bored, even though dinners are tasty, eggs and meat and spinach gets old.  I might cheat a little and cook up the last bag of popcorn in the cupboard.  But it's lightly buttered, so that's okay, right?
