Atkins, Day Six

Today caused a bit of trepidation, as I had two end-of-semester parties during my class times. I was sort of annoyed at myself because instead of looking forward to them, I was grumbling that they would blow my "diet."

As it turned out the first one was a breakfast, and the only options were bagels with cream cheese, so I just had some black coffee. By the second one, I had cheered up quite a lot and decided to just enjoy myself and have a good time.

  • 8:40 am - smoked gouda, 16 oz Diet Coke, piece of Whitening gum

  • 10:40 am - black coffee

  • 12:50 pm - 2 ground chicken patties with cheese


  • 1:25 pm - 16 oz Diet Pepsi, second 1/2 bag of salted cashews

  • 3-8 pm (party) - bite of cheesecake brownie, bite of regular brownie, 3 big rum drinks each with a splash of regular Coke, glass of sake, carrots & whole grain Wheat Thins dipped in hummus, tomato with mozzarella and oil

  • 12:00 am - beef curry with onions and green beans, 16-20 oz Diet Pepsi, 32 oz sugar free iced green tea

I'm glad I relaxed at the second party because I had a wonderful time. I also got pretty smashed, but since I didn't make an ass of myself, it wasn't a bad thing.

My boyfriend prepared a delicious curry using minute steaks that was truly out of this world. He used unsweetened soy milk to thicken the sauce, and it came out fantastic.
