Feeling Accomplished

I did pretty dang well for myself this past week. My husband and I didn't have much money to get a lot of stuff so we decided that I would juice and have a meal a day and just got enough for that until we get paid again. So this week I've been juicing for breakfast and having some guacamole for lunch. I was able to get a few things to eat so I actually scraped together a few dinners that were all completely vegetarian. Actually, i think they were all vegan. I made a really yummy tomato, cabbage and lentil soup. It had other veggies in it and some beans and it was really good. The cumin is what really gave it the kick I needed. And I was able to make enough for two nights. Yesterday morning my aunt and I actually went to Hardees for breakfast and she asked me what I wanted to get. I told her I couldn't have anything! Everything, and I mean EVERYTHING had meat, cheese, eggs and white flour. So since I was hungry I went for a medium order of hash rounds. not the best, but it was better than pretty much everything else. I used to go for the low carb bowl, but that's the opposite of what I'm trying to do here. It was interesting and my aunt was quite surprised when she asked me if I was going to be a vegetarian and I told her that that's what I was working towards. It made me feel good. I did have a piece of chicken last night though. I basically only had a head of cabbage and there was some frozen chicken breasts in the freezer so I cooked that and sauteed some cabbage and also baked a potato and ate that. I felt like I was cheating but I still lost 1.1 pound after having been at the same exact weight for the last 3 or 4 days. So it's important to change it up I guess. Anyway, since we don't have much and won't until tomorrow, I'm going to juice fast today. I think I will just make a big batch and sip on it throughout the day. It will oxidize, but it'll still be good. Anyway, 4 weeks of healthhy eating, without really exercising, I'm down 12 pounds. :)

Starting weight: 278
