Day 2

I stayed up last night until after midnight reading the books, the 2 WW magazines I got, and signed up for their website where I read more. I had to choose between the plan where you have to track and tally points for everything you eat all day. Math has never been my strong suit, so I went with the Core plan where you can eat until you are full without tracking given that you only eat the stuff on the approved food list. I figure if I was able to do that with Atkins where I lost 80 pounds eating eggs and bacon, I should be able to do it with way more choices of food. You also get 35 points a week to eat stuff that isn’t on the Approved list.

Breakfast

2 Frozen Waffles – 3 points
1 cup fat free plain yogurt – 0
1 cup frozen berries – 0
Splenda – 0
6 almonds – 1

Lunch

3 Egg omelet w/some leftover chicken breast, and green pepper. – 0
1 slice Swiss Cheese - 1
Skim Milk – 0

5 points down. Must pace myself.

Now it’s 1:40 and I am thinking about what to eat next and when to eat it. I am obsessing over food – reading menus and recipes and clicking every link on the webpage looking for more yummy choices of things to stick in my mouth. It’s a sickness, and I realize I am thinking about food because it’s easier to decide if I should eat a pear or a banana than what to do with my life. Mom called and said she read a report that women that don’t get enough sleep can’t lose weight. Maybe I should go take a nap.
