MediFast Day 2

Yea!!  I made it through Day 1 and I didn't cheat!!  I can't say these meals are exactly gourmet.  I had their Peach Oatmeal for breakflast; I must say that it really tasted more like Peach wallpaper paste, well since I haven't ever tasted wallpaper paste I have to say that it tastes like I imagine wall paper paste would taste.  Maybe the apple cinnamon will be better...

The chili wasn't bad; the bars are actually pretty good.  

My blood glucose reading was 184 this morning :-(  I forgot to take my medicine last night.  That did kinda dash my hopes somewhat as I was hoping to see an immediate effect on that.  Oh, well; I know that it will go down.  And who knows what it would have been had I taken my medicine last night!

I'm including a pic of the hubster and me on our cruise in January.  This was taken while we were in Cozumel.  We have already booked another cruise for our 5th anniversary for January 2012.  Warren's mom and his sister will be going with us.  It is a 7day cruise this time - Jamaica, Cayman Islands and Cozumel - and will be on a brand new ship, Carnival Magic http://www.carnival.com/cms/fun/ships/carnival_magic/default.aspx?shipCode=MC

Anyway, wish me luck on Day 2!!!  I wish all of you the best on whatever journey you are on!

Today is the Day

Good morning, everyone!  Today is the day that I start MediFast.  My weight this morning is 349lbs; my blood glucose reading is 164. 

I am doing the MediFast for diabetes.  I have two weeks of food to start out with - shakes, bars, soups.  I can have 300mg of caffeine.  I'm not sure how much that is so I will limit myself to 2 cups of black coffee everyday.

I'm not supposed to exercise for a couple of weeks when starting this plan.  I go to the endo 2 weeks from yesterday; I am hoping to show her some weight loss and a drop in glucose readings.

Wish me luck!

Love to all!
