Day 3

Yesterday was easier - I was not nearly as hungry as the day before. As I mentioned before, I think the hunger was from it being around that time of the month for me, not the diet.

I stayed full all day and stayed busy, which helps avert me from wanting to snack or cheat. It's frustrating how many food advertizements there are on the roads & on TV. No wonder our society is obese, every block there's a picture of food or every other commercial is for some kind of junk/fast food.

5:45 - workout - 11 min elliptical, 25 min weights (upper body)

I had to eat early last night because my daughter had soccer practice and later I had a Volleyball game. Since the game was an hour and I played hard throughout the whole game, I took this morning off from working out. We're going to a fall festival this evening and will be running around at the park, so I'll still get exercise in today. Just taking it a little easy since I got 2 workouts yesterday and hurt all over this morning from the game.

I snuck a peek at the scale this morning, keeping in mind that it's a.m. and they weighted me on Tuesday in the p.m. It showed a 9 pound loss. I know it's water weight, but I'm only 2 pounds away from being under 290. As long as I stick to plan, I should be in the 280's when I weigh in on Tuesday.
