Day Eight - Cycle Two (Day 25)

TODAY'S POSTING

     I have been so busy these last few days.  Everything is taking me three times as long to do on this computer of mine.  It just keeps freezing.  I just restored the whole thing and updated the software,  However, it needs a faster processing brain!  It is soooo frustrating!  It's been the bane of my existence.  I can't blog because of all the wait times.  I can't farm because it won't barely change pages!  It just stops in the middle of doing something and just sits there for hours!  ARRGGHH!  Calgon take me away!  :-)  I have lost several crops recently.  I have had to quit co-op jobs or not be able to contribute to my own jobs!  I am so sorry Jenni.  I hope you are reading this because I have been trying to send you a message of fv and I just can't get it to act right.  Thank you for joining my o-op and doing ALL of the work!  I hope it pays of for you!      
    
OK!  Now that I got that off of my chest.  I have been extremely busy and do not remember any details of my day for today, so I am just going to post my Stats and what I ate for you today.  I have remained faithful to my eating plan and always remember to plan when I am going out.  Even when I am busy, I stop and make myself eat and drink!

TODAY'S STATS

Green Tea = 3; Water = 6; Fruit = 1 apple; Probiotics = 2 yogurts; Proteins = chicken breast, steak, salmon, shrimp; Vegetables = onions, mushrooms, tomatoes, bell peppers, broccoli; Friendly Fats = 2 tbs. olive oil; Natural Starch = 1 cup basmati rice; Outlook = positive!

     So, I had my standard lemon water in the am and green tea.  Had an apple and a yogurt for breakfast.  For snack, I also had a yogurt (I was running low on fruit and needed to go shopping), with 2 waters and a tea.  Lunch was leftover fajitas with rice, a tea and 2 waters.  Dinner was a 3 oz sirloin steak, a 3 oz. salmon, and a skewer of grilled shrimp (8), with a cup of broccoli.  The total calories for dinner was 400!  It sounds like a like more, huh?  The shrimp was only 60 calories for all of them - there is no fat and no sugars in them either!  The steak and chicken grilled saved calories, but made up the most calories for dinner at 310, and the broccoli was 30.  Delicious!

I hope this bog is helping someone out there besides me!  I am enjoying the food and recipes, but it would be nice to hear from someone else who has tried them.  (Heather - have you started your 18 day diet yet?  If so, have you tried any o my recipes?)
