I am So Proud of Myself....Day 1 & Day 2 for 5DPT

I started the 5DPT yesterday...I always make plans to do so, but after trying on outfits that I had purchased last year and found them just a little snugg, I knew it was time.

I work the late evening into the morning shift (5p-1:30a) and when I come in it takes me a while to whine down.  On my way in yesterday morning I stopped at the market and purchased a piece of ham steak (always keep split peas on hand) and proceeded to fix a pot of Ham & Split Pea soup from the 5DPT recipe.  When the soup was done I went to bed at about 3:30a.  At 7am, I received a call from a friend wo lives in New York, said they didn't have anything to do so they were driving down to spend the day with me.  Why today..I thought, I just started my 5DPT.  Well, when my friend arrived, I proceeded to fix a real southern style breakfast of Smothered Steak w/ onions, eggs, grits with gravy and biscuits. I know not a real healthy choice, but that's what he wanted.  I had no problem in preparing the meal, and not one time did I stumble or give in too taste or sample anything that I had cooked; so while he ate my southern style breakfast...I had a Chocolate Protein Shake later followed by a cup of coffee and then enjoyed some of my Ham & Split Pea Soup.

Starting Day 2 today....not expecting any company!

Hi Genie,

You GO GIRL!  That's amazing.  Preparing breakfast with no nibbling or sampling, and sticking to your program.  Congratulations on your commitment to doing what you've set out to do.

All the best on Day 2. 

YEAH YOU!

Cathy

Thank you, thank you for your support...onward and upward!

Wow, way awesome. Mind over pouch!! Great job resisting temptation. When you're off your 5dpt you can have that any ol time, right? just 4 more days!

Keep up the good work!
Deb

Genie,
If you could get through that on Day 1 without caving to those cir****tances & great meal, I'd say your hardest day is behind you!  Great job!  

thats awesome! Good job

That is so awesome! Congrats I'm currently on day 4, and am imppressed by how my cravings have really become less and less. I have had a pkg of SF white chocolate chip cookies in my pantry unopened for this entire time, and havn't really wanted them.
Keep up the great work. I am really rediscovering my pouch agian, and I think you will too.
