Day 1 Afternoon

Okay, so I did my measurements.  Boy was that depressing!  Here it is, in black and white (all measurements are in inches):

Left Arm: 13.5

Right Arm: 14.5

Chest: 42.5

Waist: 34.25

Belly: 43.5

Hips: 46.5

Left Thigh: 29

Right Thigh: 29.5

Not pretty....

My lunch menu was as follows:

4 oz. of SmartDeli Turkey Style slices (veggie lunch 'meat')

1 pint grape tomatoes 

1 reduced fat string cheese

sassy water

Yes, that does say 1 pint of grape tomatoes.  I love tomatoes, but by the end of the bowl, I was getting a little tired of them.

Now, according to the FBD book, you are supposed to follow the first 4 days of the diet (the jumpstart) to the letter.  But, I am not comfortable with having animal proteins for 2 meals a day yet, so I switched out the 4 oz. of turkey breast with 4 oz. of SmartDeli turkey (which, by the way, is not my favorite.)

I am now off to have my snack, a blueberry smoothie with a side of sunflower seeds.  I will report back after dinner, and my first attempt at eating meat in 15 years.  (Tonight it is Tilapia.)
