Last Chance to Eat Like a Pig

I told you on my first post that today is my last day to eat whatever I want. So, tonight while we were out getting our dog some dog food at PetSmart, my husband offered me ice cream as my last chance and I said "oh yeah"!  :D  So, I had a small ice cream at Maggie Moo's. I was going to tell you what flavor, but if you are eating healthy as you read this, believe me, you really do not want to hear it! Before I go to sleep I may have a couple bites of Creme Brulee by Haagen Das (it was a birthday gift - thank you!) Shouldn't I be getting a commission or something from these companies that I am naming? haha!

Ok, so here's the plan. I am planning ahead for tomorrow. It is about 9:30 pm and I have a plan for tomorrow morning. It is just in my mind, I haven't gone to the store yet, so I will have to make do with whatever we have here.

First, within a half an hour of waking up, I will eat breakfast. It will be small because I want to eat again about two hours later. So, all I need to do is curb my appetite and get my metabolism going. I will most likely have a half of a cup of granola with a little bit of milk. If I have some frozen blueberries, I will put about 10 of those on top, but I may be out. . .  And right after waking up I will be drinking a full glass of water as I do every morning to take my meds for the hypothyroidism that I mentioned in my first post.

Then in a couple of hours, I will eat again during the mid-morning. I don't know what I will eat at that time yet. I do know it will be between 100-200 calories*. I will definitely keep you posted, though!

I have already read The End Game Diet by Bryan R. Daybell (available on Amazon.com) and I am going to be following the Freshetarian blog, which is brand new.  Both of these talk about eating often. And I am all about eating, so that should work out well!  I just need to gauge what I eat, so I don't take in more energy than I care to burn. Yes, I do not like to exercise that much! How did you guess? ;D  (By the way, The End Game Diet is a quick read and comes with an audio CD. It really motivates me to do well!)

*100-200 calorie ideas: couple of crackers and a couple of nuts, or 1/2 glass keifer, or two small pieces of fruit, or one small container of yogurt (without high fructose syrup if possible), or one piece of dry wheat toast with one egg over medium, or a banana. NOT two cookies or 1/2 donut!!! ;D  And if I want to have integrity, I should tell you that I will probably splurge anytime I have wheat toast and put a teensy bit of butter - about 1/2 tablespoon (50 calories, so if you can skip it, do!)
