Day 2---Feeling Pretty Good

Day two complete!  Today was a much better day than yesterday food-wise.  For breakfast I had Ideal Protein Crispy Cereal.  You add water, not milk and it already has some powder milk protein in it.  While it wasn't sugary and full of junk I'm used to, I have to say it was good.  And it felt kind of normal to have some cereal in the morning.  But, about an hour after I ate, my blood sugar crashed to 68.  So, instead of panicking and grabbing the closest thing to me, in other words junk.  I just calmly moved my afternoon snack to morning and it worked!  On to lunch.....vegetable chili.  Neither of which I am a big fan of...vegetables or chili.  lol  But, let's give it a whirl.  So, on this diet there are RESTRICTED Ideal Protein Foods.  Basically it means you can only have 1 of these items a day.  Now I know why the chili is restricted.  It was sooooo good.  Made me very happy.  So, I had that, a salad which I added 1 egg to, counts as 2 oz of my protein.  I ate cucumbers & celery for my 2 cups of veggies.  For dinner, I had grilled chicken with a drizzle of teriyaki sauce.  I was so full though, I didn't get my veggies in.  Overall I felt that today was successful!
