Slow progress

This morning's nekkid weight: 205.5, yet again.

Last night, my "snack" was a little bit of chicken and some mixed veggies from Outback Steakhouse. Apparently, Outback has gluten-free meats. (Gluten-free restaurant finder: http://www.glutenfreerestaurants.org/zip_search.php) I had their grilled chicken and veggies "light style" -- no butter, no BBQ sauce, under 500 calories. I also only ate 1/2 to 2/3 of my chicken, since I was only supposed to have a snack. Guess I was cheating a little.

Today was different, though. All shakes. No cheating.

Unfortunately, I think the diet's starting to effect my moods. I'm feeling tired and overly emotional. I'm feeling really down and frustrated. I really love food, but I wasn't expecting to get this upset about it. I've also been snapping at Hubby easily over the past few days. I'm trying to be better about that.

I think tomorrow night will be particularly difficult, getting through Krav on low calories and absolutely no carbs, or really anything resembling proper food. I guess we'll see how it goes.

Hubby and I have made plans for my first Saturday night after the 28-day Cleanse diet is over. We're going to Houston for dinner at Pappasito's as a reward. I haven't been there in quite a while, and it will be a special treat. I'm trying to keep that in mind as additional motivation to stay on this diet.

I'm running low on the powder that I make my shakes from. Hopefully it will last until I visit my Doc on Tuesday, where I can get more. At $70 a pop, I'm sure my Doc will happily sell me another huge bottle of the vile stuff.
