July 26 Day 2

Last night was hard, I didn’t feel hungry but was tempted by the meal that I fixed for my family.  I can tell that evening dinner time and before bed are going to be tough.  However, I survived by eating three small pieces of bagguet dipped in a little bit of olive oil and a taste of dessert.  Darn, almost a perfect day.

9:30am  running around, late for my first Doctor’s appointment.  My daughter made my Soy Shake w Strawberries for me and out the door I went.  Drank it in the car.  The routine physical revealed that my blood pressure, EKG, heart, lungs, and skin are healthy.  The weight loss was a nice surprise, even on their scales.  I will  schedule  blood work and get a x-ray of my left knee.  The right knee seems to be getting better.  Yeah!

11:30am  home from the doctor.  Made a Berry Mango Fruit shake and left again to get the x-ray.

12:30pm  Ate a large plate of steamed kale with balsamic vinegar and a glass of Mint w Stevia tea.  I’m satisfied, my stomach feels pleasantly full and no cravings.  However, the other end of the digestive tract is very active today.  Clean out time!
