Medifast Journal Day #12

Medifast Honey Mustard Pretzel Sticks

Today was a pretty good day.  I found out I can eat PIZZA!  Well, ok, not real pizza but there are Medifast Pizza Bites that if you try to imagine real hard actually taste somewhat kind of like cheese pizza.  Ok, after 12 days I’ll take what I can get.

I’m really liking the pretzel bites and snacks.  I miss the crunch of snacks and these fill that void nicely.  They also help me to get over my need for bread and they don’t taste bad at all.  My favorite so far is the Honey Mustard Pretzel Sticks.

My hunger stayed at bay for most of the day although I was pretty busy and didn’t have time to think much about eating.  I actually managed to make my afternoon interval go 3 hours instead of my normal 2.

Lean & Green was a turkey burger with some lettuce.  I added an egg and some turkey bacon as the burger was only 4 oz.  I wasn’t ravenous going into dinner and my night snack came late.  Perhaps my body is adjusting.  The weekend is coming up but we will be on the road so temptations shouldn’t be that great.

Medifast Journal Day #7

Sunday.  In my household, Sunday is usually a big breakfast day and my son reminded me that bacon, eggs, toast, and the like were demanded.  Luckily I had foreseen the possible pitfalls here and picked up turkey bacon instead of our normal thick cut bacon (a particular weakness of mine).

I made my son his normal B.E.C. (Bacon, Egg, Cheese) sandwich and he indicated that he very much liked the turkey bacon.  Great.  Easier on me not having normal bacon in the house.  At about 25 calories a slice, I splurged and had a couple with my Apple Cinnamon Oatmeal.

For dinner I decided it was time for steak.  I grilled steak along with (yep, you guessed it) zucchini and green beans along with some salad.  I don’t know if it was the fact that for almost a week I’ve been eating low calorie items or if it was the new seasoning I put on the steaks but WOW was that the best steak I’ve had in a LONG time.  I think at this point even mushrooms might taste good to me…but I doubt it.
