The first 2 days...

Breakfast, Day 1: scrambled eggs (2 white, 2 whole), pinto beans, arugula, tomato, salsa.



Lunch, Day 1: lemon pepper chicken, green beans w/mushrooms, pinto beans, small tomato.



2nd Lunch, Day 1: Pinto beans, 2 small tomatoes, avocado, salsa.



Dinner, Day 1: Lemon pepper chicken, green beans, cottage cheese. Lunch and 2nd lunch really filled me up for a long time--only just now felt hungry again, (8:30 PM) and even then not super hungry.



Breakfast, Day 2: Scrambled eggs (whole and whites), green beans, salsa. Not very inspired/inspiring, but I have to do a lot today and this was quick to prepare. I know it's mostly water weight, (?) but I'll be damned if I didn't lose TWO POUNDS SINCE YESTERDAY. That will likely fluctuate, but still--wow.



Lunch, Day 2: Bison burger, arugula, spinach and mushrooms, black beans, small tomato. Very delicious.



2nd Lunch, Day 2: Black beans, chicken, spinach, avocado, salsa.



Dinner, Day 2: Black beans, spinach, arugula, tomato, cottage cheese.


I felt very satisfied with the taste and amount of the food I prepared on the first two days. Also, on the morning of day 3 I already lost 3.5 pounds, so it's tough to complain about missing fruit. I can honestly say I've only had a few "white carb" cravings, and a few sugar cravings. (So far!) But I do miss fruit really badly--I think it will be a major part of my cheat days, which will be Saturdays.
