Flat Belly Diet

Ok so I am starting something new -- The Flat Belly Diet. Yes, it is the newest fad diet but hey it sounds like a balanced plan.

Yesterday I was supposed to follow "Day 1" of the jumpstart diet but I was at work through lunch. One of the big things to avoid is gassy foods. Ha! What did I end up eating? Mexican food, refried beans and all. BUT I did lose 1 pound of water weight because I was peeing nonstop all day long.

Day 1
Breakfast: Unsweetened Cornflakes w/ milk. Unsweetened applesauce and sunflower seeds. One glass of "Sassy Water" (water with cucumber, lemon, ginger, and mint) I felt great after breakfast because it was filling. Usually I only have a little breakfast. I tried the sassy water for the first time and it was actually really good. It smelled like lemons but had a cucumber taste. I slurped down 2 glasses at breakfast.

Lunch: 4 oz turkey, 1 string cheese, 1/2 pt of grape tomatoes, Sassy Water I cheated. I have a cheese enchilada, refried beans, rice, and half a chicken taco. I wonder why I'm overweight...

Snack: Blueberry smoothie (1c milk, 1c blueberries) Didn't have the smoothie because I cheated so badly. I ate some raw sliced almonds instead.

Dinner: Fresh green beans, 4oz tilapia, red potato My tilapia was eeeh, the potato was good, and the green beans were from the freezer. I felt hungry after dinner but resisted the urges!

So aside from the fact that I majorly cheated yesterday, I feel pretty good. You are supposed to walk after every meal for 5 minutes but I didn't do that after lunch or dinner. I think I need to restart the jumpstart and do it right this time.
