Phase 2 - Day 8

This week we should see my weight loss even out to about a pound a day. At least that's what all the literature says. I'm down a pound, so I guess it's true so far. Last night I hung out in my hot tub for a bit and this morning I woke up "puffy" from the water retention, so I'll have to think long and hard about whether I want to spend time in my hot tub knowing it makes me retain water.

Today's Menu:

Breakfast (0 calories)
Tea & Coffee

Snack (120 calories)
Apple - 8oz at 15 cals per oz - splitting this between snack and dinner (putting some in my salad)

Lunch (195 calories)
Shrimp - 5oz at 30 cals per oz
Tomatoes - 9oz at 5 cals per oz

Dinner (183.5 calories)
Chicken - 4.5oz at 31 cals per oz
Lettuce - 11oz at 4cals per oz (wowza - I don't know if I can eat that all)
Apple - whatever I don't eat for snack (cals counted at snack)

Snack (0 calories)
no snack since my apple is so big.

Weight Loss: 1.0!
Total Weight Loss: 13.0 pounds!!!

Tip of the Day: Beware of hot tubs while on this diet. I've been in mine 2x and each time I woke up puffy and retaining water.
