DAY 1
so it's day one and i've screwed up already. not entirely, but a bit. this morning, my plan was to get out of bed when my alarm actually went off and do a little excercise. not making excuses, but since i didn't get to bed til almost midnite (because i was talking to another friend about dieting) i was a bit tired.
handyman (my b/f), being the sweetheart that he can be, made me breakfast and lunch for today. the breakfast was more atkins geared - eggs and bacon. i ate some of the eggs and 1 piece of bacon. i didn't want to over-do it. for those of you who don't know, i'm doing the South Beach Diet (SBD). it's almost like atkins only it's low-carb AND low-fat. for dinner, last nite, he made a really good SBD steak and sauce with green beans that i packed up for my lunch today. so i'm back on track.
