Day 5, Cheat Day!

As of this morning, the 5th day, I had lost a total of 5.7lbs. Pretty amazing loss for only 4 days on the plan. I'm nervous about cheat day, but it's part of the plan, so I'm going to have fun with it. I will calculate total inches lost and body fat percentage lost at the start of each week, so that's not until next Tuesday... I also have an appointment for a blood draw that day, so I don't have a perfect baseline (from before starting the plan) but I can at least track improvement from here on out.



Breakfast, Day 5: Scrambled eggs, black beans, arugula, salsa.



Lunch, Day 5: Jimmy John's Vito sandwich. (White bread, Italian meats, cheese, lettuce, tomato, vinaigrette dressing) I also had a few of my boyfriend's potato chips. Before this meal I had some grapefruit juice, and I did air squats.



"Lunch dessert", Day 5: Chocolate chunk brownie, Ben and Jerry's vanilla ice cream. This dessert was about 430 calories, so lunch all together was close to 1000 calories. I also took a cinnamon tablet before this dessert. (Cinnamon makes my throat hurt, so I can't just dust it on other things.)



Dinner: Garlic and herb bread with goat cheese, tomato, and roasted yellow peppers.



Cheat day dessert: yogurt and fruit



Cheat day party snack: dark chocolate



Cheat day bar snack: Jasmine rice with an asian brussel sprout salad. I shared this at a bar around 11PM.
