Here Goes Nothing (Day 1)

Well, I was right. This is HARD.
Let me preface this by explaining my idiocy in my start-up. I am a very organized person. Meticulous about the smallest of things, especially when it comes to my studies. However, I am extremely forgetful. That being said, my goal was to begin this diet on November 1st. However, when my alarm woke me up on November 1st, I realized I had not purchased a scale. (I have been avoiding this terror for quite some time.) I meant to buy one so that I could start out right. Oh well, November 2nd, here I came…
November 2nd I weighed myself, had a heart-attack, and got ready for work set to start the program. That’s when I realized that I had forgotten my Mango-Peach flavored breakfast drink. But, this go-getter was not about to postpone this thing any further. So I set out to work my shift and decided I would eat when I got home at about 1:30 p.m.
Wow, was I hungry. When you’re used to making the Timmies stop for breakfast and grabbing a bite with co-workers for lunch, it’s tough to just NOT eat anything. As my stomach growled on the way home, I stopped and bought some lettuce. Lunch could not have come quicker.
I made the Chicken Flavored Soup and a salad with plain white vinegar. Soup was delicious, salad was bitter and lacking without dressing. And then I took the supplements. I have to say, that the “Matol” liquid supplement is quite possibly the vilest thing I have ever experienced. How am I supposed to live like this!? For dinner, a small chicken breast, lettuce and a cucumber. And that damn supplement again. However, it was easier than this afternoon, which gives me hope that it will only get better as this diet proceeds.
Basically, this small taste made the program seem impossible. I’m hoping it’s my own mistakes that have limited me. Fingers crossed it gets better from here…
