My 2nd week was one full of temptation. An all day business meeting followed by a delightful dinner at Warehouse Bistro in Opelika. I rocked it out though. For breakfast, I sneakily opened by Medi protein bar and added some strawberries, almonds, and grapes to my plate. It.was.like.dessert. YUM.
For lunch, the caterer rocked my eyeballs out just as they had for breakfast. There was just too much goodness to even list out. But, I had the salmon, but scraped all the love off the top (breadcrumbs, etc) and some of the scrumptious green beans. I pretended like the dessert wasn't even there and instead, picked off the grapes and had 2 string cheese sticks.
BTW, if you need a catered event, definitely check out: http://www.missredsplace.com/ because they are amazingly good at creating a party in your mouth. Just sayin'.
Dinner was easier than I thought. I didn't even WANT the creme brulee or bread pudding that everyone seemed to order. My favorite customer that sat across from me even covered his so I couldn't see it. I think that qualifies him as a best friend.
The sad thing in going through a lifestyle change is that you still have people who try tempting you. I can't even say anything to them other than a pleasant "No thank you...." But, inside, I'm Chuck Norrising them in their nether regions. I have not cheated yet and actually felt guilty drinking some Coke Zero!
So, I digress. This morning's weigh in actually showed 2 lbs UP on the scale, but thanks to the machine, we know that it was actually a 4 lbs of FAT lost (take that FAT..."I'm gonna give you to the count of 10, to get your ugly, yella, no-good keister off my property.") Apparently, my body, like so many women, is holding on to the water.
BUTTTTTTTTTT, get this: 2 more inches off my waist. Know what means? It would be easier for Maxim Chernovsky to hold me, while looking into my eyes, and sway our bodies to the music. Oh man, I digress again.
Til next week....
:)
