Day 1 review

Wow!  There is no way one can be hungry on this plan!  I was completely stuffed and had trouble finishing dinner.  Take a peek at the food from today.


I enjoyed most of the food.  The exception was the carrot ginger soup at lunch.  I think I'll like it with a minor adjustment to the recipe.  The trouble is that the recipe doesn't tell you how much of the spices to use.  It just says "to taste."  How am I supposed to know what "to taste" means in a recipe I've never tried?!?!?!  All of the recipes were like this.  Let's hope I guessed better on the others. 

I felt crummy all day, in and out of a migraine.  I took three naps and still managed to sleep through the night.  The book warns about detox effects.  Maybe that was it.  Maybe it was just a migraine.  With no way to tell, I'm not going to worry about it.  I still feel a little bit of the migraine hanging on this morning.  Ugh.

Now it's time to reveal my day 1 results!


3.2 pounds gone!  I'm completely at a loss to explain it!  I've been told that the first few days will be rapid weight loss, but given my resistance to hope for it (as I explained yesterday), it's still a complete surprise.

The critics out there will probably say that it was just water weight.  I drank 100 ounces of water yesterday, so I have clear defense against that! 

Getting all of that water in was harder than I thought.  I had a plan to just chug a glass on a schedule to make sure that I didn't miss any.  With the migraine and all the naps, that didn't work so well.  Somehow I managed and I'm hoping that it will get easier.

It's time for breakfast!
