Day Three!

So my day started at 8:30 again. I went downstairs and had my Spark. I look forward to having my Spark because I'm drinking so much water that when I have a flavored drink it's a treat!

I waited the 30 minutes and went for my fiber drink...(My LAST fiber drink until day 8!) After the trouble I had yesterday I was a little nervous! 

Well today didn't go any easier. I mixed about half a scoop of my spark in with it. I began to drink and just knew that it wasn't going to go well. So I got my water ready. After every drink of the fiber I took a drink of water. It seemed to help me get it down easier. It is the texture that it leaves in your mouth after got me every time I took a drink. But I did get it down a lot better today. 

BREAKFAST:

Let me start by saying that I was not super hungry because the fiber and water I had just drank. I waited about 15 minutes after drinking the fiber to make my breakfast. I decided to go with 2 eggs and an egg white with bell pepper and onion mixed in. (Similar to the breakfast burrito) I put half a serving of salsa on top. YUM! I had a side of whole grain wheat toast with a SMALL amount of butter. I toasted it in the oven for about 10 minutes. About half way through my meal I was no longer hungry.

1ST SNACK:

Just like the first two days I didn't feel hungry until lunch!

LUNCH: 

For some reason today I really wanted a sandwich today. I had already had a whole grain for breakfast and I knew we were having carbs for dinner. So instead I decided to make some turkey wraps but you lettuce instead of a tortilla.

I mushed up 1/4 of an avocado, a little mustard, 1 slice of turkey (on each "wrap"), some onion, and a little cucumber. On the side I had a pickle. I was really craving something salty and I figured this was better than most salty things! 

I really liked the wraps and will for sure make them again!

2ND SNACK:

So I didn't get a picture of this because I was at Kroger. For snack I had 4 piece of whole grain brown rice sushi with salmon and tuna! SO GOOD! 

DINNER:

Oh my, dinner was so good! My mom made a whole grain pasta dish! It had shrimp, peppers, onions, garlic, and tomatoes. There wasn't much of a sauce but the little sauce there was, was part of the tomatoes! Literally SO GOOD! 

This was kind of a treat, we won't be eating pasta and stuff like that much! 

3RD SNACK:

This one was boring... I just had a banana.

WORKOUT:

So I was wrong...Our meeting with the personal trainer isn't until NEXT wednesday... oops! But I still did 20 minutes on the bike-(5+ miles), 20 minutes on the treadmill (1 mile) (Yes I know one mile isn't great but I didn't run today because my knee is still hurting) and we did 20 minutes of weights/machines. 

I feel really good! I was looking at my before picture and compared it to now...I can honestly already see a change...and its only day THREE!!

I never feel hungry and I never feel stuffed. 

So far my energy has improved a little but I don't see much change in my sleeping yet. I am really looking forward to that! 

While I was at the grocery store earlier I noticed how different my cart looks now. Also wanted to point out that this doesn't necessarily look like the cart of someone who is "dieting". I don't really feel like I am on a diet...Thats because I'm not...This is a lifestyle change!

Well way past my bedtime! Good night everyone. I hope you have a great nights sleep and a great day tomorrow. I know I will simply because I don't have to drink the fiber drink in the mooring! :) 

Much Love,

Hannah
