Day 3 - Just keep swimming.....

OK, I would first like to clarify any muddy water with NO, I do not like fried Oreo's! Just in case anyone was wondering! Now, today was actually a much better day than I had anticipated! I really thought it would be as hard as yesterday, but it did actually go more smooth!

My breakfast was MUCH more filling today - it was 2 eggs and a small granny smith apple (no butter in the eggs) - my snack was Cheerio's and then my lunch was a lettuce wrap with turkey, tomato, lettuce and mayo & it was surprisingly good! My afternoon snack was a Lara "cherry cake bar" and well, there was nothing cherry or cake about it - I PROMISE!!!

But, it did help me to get through my 12 - 8 oz bottles of water today, along with my 11 oz diet tea! I marked my water bottle with numbers today as I finished a bottle!



 My dinner was split with a friend and I was pleasingly surprised that I handled dinner as well as I did. It was salad, which I ate with no dressing, also green beans, roast beef and potatoes.  I ate most of the roast beef, all of the beans, and I REALLY wanted all of the potatoes, but I refrained!

What arrived for dinner

What was left!

Now, Dessert was a different story! It had a small scoop of melted ice cream and I ate that took a bite of the "cobbler" and ate a peach! Then my taste turned and I could not eat anymore.....WHAT??!!!??? That was a cool feeling!

I am doing this one small step at a time! I CAN do this! And I am SO EXCITED to announce that Nikki Mack is going to be my fitness trainer, planner and coach! Who needs Jillian Michaels?? I have my own Biggest Loser - so I guess this was God's way of me not making the show - I can do it at home and still be with my family! I am so EXCITED!!!

Yesterday I felt defeated, but today, maybe I'm drowning in all of the water I drank, but as Dori said on Nemo, I'll  "Just keep swimming......." because I feel victorious!
