So after I left you last night, I tried my best to stay busy to avoid my usual after dinner binging.
But, Jimmy….God bless him, decided that he should have TWO bowls of cereal (Cocoa Puffs & Honey Smacks), with a helping of chips and salsa in between.
I know!
I was all, “um….hello food addict right here, in rehab!”
And he was all, “um….hello, when you’re out in the real world you’ll be faced with food…so…why not start now! (crunch crunch)”
I just ask that you guys pray for my marriage through the next 30 days….
or rather pray for Jimmy that he makes it out alive.

This morning was rough.
I was drrrrragggging in a mah-jor way and had yet another morning headache. I’m telling you that sugar and diet coke withdrawls combined, may just be as horrible as detox from heroin.
Yup, pretty sure.
Life seemed gloomy, that is, until I heard the crack (pun intended) of my Guru Lite open up. Suddenly the clouds parted and I felt that I may just live after all.

I’m pretty sure there’s crack in that stuff.
At this point, can’t say I’d be above it if there was.
Speaking of crack, Diet Coke, I miss you. xoxo
Supplements:
Same as yesterday.
Workout:
I definitely woke up sore, but not so badly that life was terrible. I think that 30 reps was the right way to go yesterday, and I decided that until I stop sounding all raspy, that 30-35 it will be. Today was 30. Maybe, just maybe, I’ll inch to 35 tomorrow.
For cardio, I did the Rebounder Series which was absolutely awesome except for one thing. And all you MAMA’S listen up. IF you’ve had a child, ESPECIALLY IF you’ve had two or more, heed my warnings. Empty your bladder as best you can BEFORE you jump. And even then, um, how do I put this discreetly? Pad up. If that doesn’t spell it out loud and clear, I don’t know what else to say…
Doing the rebounder was most definitely my favorite cardio so far, and I’m thinking tomorrow I may do the book cardio on it as well to mix things up. Watch out, I’m getting crazy round here.
Food:
Breakfast was rough. And a little tip for those of you who HAVEN’T started this yet. For Day 2, make your day two dinner the day before and add in extra (turkey or chicken) for your breakfast. This way when you wake up starving on Day 2, breakfast will be ready. Otherwise, you’ll end up like me….feeling the shakes and having to chop and steam and then attempt to roll it all into a lettuce leaf. Which never happened for me by the way. Instead I chopped the lettuce and placed all the contents into a bowl for a breakfast salad. It was actually pretty good….but certainly not breakfast-ish, and certainly not belly filling. Which, yes, I understand I need to move away from.
Lunch was super yum, but that dressing is STRONG, and trust me, you won’t need to use it all.
Now let’s talk about that snack. Ugh. Can I just say that cucumbers and edamame, in my opinion, don’t mix. And being that I’m not a fan of either, it was especially hard to stomach. But just like yesterday I ate some mid morning, and a little more mid afternoon…and chased every single bite with a gulp of water.
It’s so much easier to be all about this when you have choco chestnut pudding to devour twice a day,
it’s a whole other ball game when you have tasteless air instead.
But I am DETERMINED to complete this and get back into my clothes, so eat air I did do.
Dinner was like an orgasm.
Oh my gosh, those raisins?!?
May as well have been chocolate for all I cared.
Totally the most delicious dinner.

So far, I feel like I’m doing pretty well.
While I have my moments of hanger (hunger+anger), I have been reminding myself that it’s all for the greater good.
My cute clothes and future fashion posts….
Oh!
And health.
And while all is well and good now….I have to remember that it’s still the newlywed stage.
Things can change any minute.
Just ask Jimmy.
p.s. still working on the blog list, love that you all are sharing your stories!!!
p.s.s. thought it was worth a mention that i ordered The Hunger Games on my kindle today. how funny is that? i guess it just seemed a fitting story for my situation…

It sounds like you’re doing great so far! I know you probably don’t think you are… but you are!! The first time around I didn’t do the exact menu, I mixed around the meals and ate only Tracy’s meals, but I didn’t have them on designated days. I’m still kind of confused about whether that’s ok, but I guess I’ll try to do the exact menu this time. I’m excited to get back int it! Hoping to start back on it sometime this week. I actually think I’m going to start a FB group page for the bootcamp and for Tracy stuff in general. I’m a fan on your page, so I’ll let you know when it’s up 😉
Haha, youre hilarious 😀 I got up at NOON cause my little baby girl is a SLEEPER. Anyway, I ate my breakfast WAAY too late cause I had to make her breakfast first, and then start to play chef ramsey in my mini kitchen. I think the red lettuce tasted like… not so good. I didn’t like the breakfast very much, so that helped me not wanting more! I’m skipping dinner today, and taking the rest of the chicken breast that I used and throw it together with the spinach salad! good luck with day 3 ! I have to do my workouts in the evening when my wonderful little girl is asleep, because she rarely sleeps at daytime! 🙂
