Day 1: 17 Day Diet

Today our menu consists of:

Bfast:
2 Scrambled Eggs (I added bell peppers and onions to mine and a bit of pepper)
1 navel orange
1 cup of green tea

Lunch:
1/2 cup cottage cheese
Patrick - Salad (romaine lettuce, grape tomatoes, cucumbers, carrots, broccoli, bell peppers) 2 tbsp of balsamic vinegar
Misty - Salad (romaine lettuce, grape tomatoes, carrots, cucumbers, celery) - 1- 5oz can of tuna and 2tbsp of balsamic vinegar
1 cup of green tea

Dinner:
Grilled Chicken (2 breasts each) baked with a dash of worscheshire, hot sauce and a few sprinkles of spicy Mrs. Dash
Asparagus (steamed)
Broccoli, Cauliflower and Carrots (steamed)
1 cup of green tea

Snacks:
3/4 cup of plain yogurt
1 cup of mixed berries (blackberries, raspberries and blueberries) - I discovered I don't like blackberries or raspberries today :)
(I added one pack of truvia to this) YUMMY minus above berries :)

I will say it wasn't that bad (minus my HUGE sugar cravings which is my own fault for knowing I was going on this and eating every sweet in sight yesterday). I found out today from a couple of forums that we can have 2 - 8 oz cups of coffee per day - so I'm going to try sweetening it with Agave Nectar and using acidopholous milk for cream. Both are on the diet. But Coffee is negative water so I'll have to drink 2 extra cups of water tomorrow. BUT WORTH IT - YAY COFFEE.

The only thing I can really tell you is try not to go anywhere without a snack b/c you (like us) are probably used to overeating so you'll be hungry constantly. Good news is you're hungry b/c your body is burning the food off so quickly. The only other thing is don't every get far from a bathroom man you'll pee all day! :)

Stay tuned for more in our journey!!
