Ok, so this morning I got to eat Fiber One for breakfast and I just about giggled through the whole bowl, I was so excited!
And then I went to TJs and bought a few bread/pasta items (whole wheat or whole grain, of course) and was SO happy. For lunch I had a wrap - whole wheat, low-carb tortilla with turkey, light cream cheese, cheese, lettuce, etc. and it was the BEST lunch I've had in a long time. And I picked up some whole wheat couscous for tonight...
I know a lot of you said that you got over the carb-craving after the first few days, but it was torture for me. Well, maybe not that bad. But coupled with the fact that I was PMSing my second week anyway, and let's just say that DH should win a freakin award.
Also, I was a little worried because I started my period 4 days early. Maybe that's not a big deal to some, but I'm on the pill and ALWAYS start on a Tuesday. Do you think the first couple weeks of SBD could have contributed? I did begin taking a multivitamin, calcium, folate and chormium picolinate. Do you think THAT could have an affect? Anyway, it was just a weird week last week and I am SO excited to be eating (limited) carbs. I'm a MUCH happier camper.
And, I'm down 5 pounds (but still periodizing, so who knows HOW many pounds really lost?). And it looks like my waist decreased about .75". Ooh, I'm ok with my weight, but if I lost another 5, that would be superb. Now to focus on firming up this jello...
