Day One Hundred Twenty Two

Breakfast

  • Total with almonds, blueberries, wheat germ & milk

I was about to pull out my trusty box of raisins when I remembered the blueberries sitting in my fridge, and I got more enthusiastic about breakfast than I've been in a long while.

If it's been a while since you've had fresh blueberries with cereal, you owe it to yourself to have some as soon as possible - what a treat!

Lunch

  • McDonald's 10-piece chicken nuggets

My boyfriend was going to McDonald's to pick himself up some double cheeseburgers and asked if he could get me a salad or somesuch. Not wanting to guess at what was allowed, I went onto the diet website to look up exact substitutions provided. Imagine my intense delight to learn I was allowed to have ten chicken McNuggets!!! Sure, I couldn't have any sauce or anything else with my meal but honestly? Who cares. Chicken McNuggets!

Meanwhile, my boyfriend chowed down on six hamburger patties with cheese. He actually suggested I take a comparison photo:

Personally, I think I got the better end of things.

Dinner

  • cereal with almonds, wheat germ, blueberries & milk

Even though my lunch was allowed by the meal plan, I felt like I'd cheated and I think I was planning to skip dinner. Fortunately, hunger struck late in the evening and I had cereal, which is quickly becoming an obsession with the addition of blueberries.

Snack

  • low-fat cheese-flavored soy crisps with unsweetened cranberry juice

These tasted like Cheetos or some other fantastically unhealthy processed cheese snack food, yet they were even healthier than the garlic & onion soy chips I usually eat - what a treat!
