I made it through a week 1. Although I was not perfect, it did stay true to my plan and found it much easier than I expected.
My 2 biggest challenges I planned on facing were:
#1 - eating the food that fit into my diet plan while also cooking for my fiance or going out to eat .
#2: dealing with people commenting on my lack of drinking alcohol when we were out and about at our local hangouts.
Cooking for my fiance wasn't so bad. I know he gets burned out on chicken and would have pot roast and potatoes every night if he could. I love chicken and could have it just about every night. He ended up working both Tuesday and Saturday night, so dinner planning was very easy. Friday I splurged and cooked us 2 filet mignons, so neither of us were complaining :) One night was spaghetti with meat sauce and for me I used the "Healthy Noodles" in place of pasta and that was good. Beyond that was chicken. I know I'll need to mix it up this week, but I really want to just stick with meat and veggies, so I may have to get creative with stir fry's.
As far as going out, I was sticking to canned vodka seltzers, but then I saw they had sugar. By Saturday, I learned to just order a vodka soda and keep having the bartender refill the soda water. Only on Sunday night did someone question me about it, but that was the bartender (lol). I just told her I needed to lose weight and had to stop drinking my calories. I declared it to be "Sober Sunday". She understood.
Now on to week 2. I recorded a 4.8lb loss last week. I anticipate this week to be more around 3 as I slow down on water weight release. I have already been to the store to buy chicken, lean ground beef and veggies. so hopefully I am set up for success. I have a buffet work dinner tomorrow, but I am not a buffet fan and am not worried about making the wrong choices.
I wonder if I can make "Filet Friday" an ongoing thing.......
