Eating well sometimes means eating hardly at all!

My very supportive and wonderful husband is joining me on a ten day journey of healthy eating and exercise. This ten day plan claims that you'll loose ten pounds and ten inches in ten days. Its supposed to jumpstart you into healthy living. Upon reading this I thought "Heck Yes! If I could loose ten pounds I would be back down to my college weight and only 5 pounds away from my highschool weight." So I told Kurt about my plan and explained how bothersome it would be to have to prepare two different meals each time we ate so he said he'd join me. I threw in the little nudge that even though he left for work at 5:45am, he would wake up to breakfast ready, his snack and a lunch to go. As well as a snack when he got home and dinner made for the entire 10days.

Little did he know that his breakfasts would consist of no salt no seasoned egg white broccoli omlets, or cottage cheese and multi-grain waffles with no toppings. This 10day diet is a very low calorie hight protein diet. You can't add anything except what is laid out for you in the 10day meal plan.

I fixed Kurts lunch for him today which was one slice of whole wheat bread with 1 tsp of mustard, three slices of turkey, 1 cup of alphalpha sprouts, and two tomato slices. He walked in and asked where his other slice of bread was, (this diet is a very low carb diet, it forces your body to use stored fat to burn) I explained he only got one and he said "I don't think you realize I eat in public at work and they're going to think I ran out of bread." I thought it was hilarious, and since we are only on day 2 and are struggling I have decided to blog our successes everyday so that people will know what we're doing and expect results. haha

So here goes:

My Starting Weight: 129 lbs Kurt's Starting Weight: 205 lbs

Day One Diet: -Stuck to the Diet No mistakes
My Exercise: -Did a very intense 45minute Cardio Workout

Day Two Diet: -Stuck to the Diet No mistakes
My Exercise: -Did a very intense 45minute Cardio Workout and Walked/Jogged the
Parkway wich I believe is 3miles.

You make me laugh! I love Kurt's comment about running out of bread, so funny! Good luck on the rest of your healthy eating. I'd say it sounds yummy, but... :)
