Day 4 - Saturday
breakfast - cinnamon apple oatmeal
thoughts: i believe my actual quote to jenni was 'this oatmeal is assed out'. I really didnt like it at all. update: I made the 'cookie' version for breakfast today, 3/7, and I like it that way. so i retract my 'assed out' comment :)
mid-morning - missed meal :(
lunch - pb crunch bar and salty, salty tears.
mid-afternoon - missed meal because I had a migraine from missing the other meal and having a melt down. more sad face.
dinner - I was scared of dinner. It's my H's birthday and he wanted to go to buffalo wild wings. eek. after consulting the Medifast community on Mymedifast.com, I was armed with some suitable options for dinner. I ended up having a burger (sans bun, cheese, onion and other condiments) and i had the fries replaced with salad and I had a half packet of Mazeretti's light italian dressing on my salad.
being on MF had been a breeze up until today. and all of my issues today were totally my fault. I didn't get to eat a proper intervals and ended up with a terrible headache.
we took izzy to the mall this morning to have some pictures done. that caused me to skip my mid-morning meal. i wasn't happy about it but figured i would make it up somewhere. after pics, my daughter and husband needed lunch. I had been mentally preparing myself for this all morning. I knew they would be eating lunch at the mall. I brought a PB crunch bar for my lunch. I didn't want to do my L&G at the mall for many reasons but the biggest being that we were dining out that night.
i thought i was ok. but as soon as we crossed the threshold of the food court, the nerves hit me. Then my H went and got burgers for them and as soon as they unwrapped them, i freaked out internally. I got up and walked around the food court reading each menu and quickly went back to our table before temptation became too much. i took a bite of my crunch bar, my face got hot and i could feel the tears coming. i felt like i was being punished. I was watching all these people around me suck down food and here i am with my stupid bar. i had like, a 30 second meltdown, got myself together ate my bar and told H to call me when they were done, i'd be in hallmark.
i feel silly for getting so upset. but i have to give myself credit for pushing through and not giving in to temptation. it would have been so easy. and honestly, even though i would have felt like i was missing out, i would have been ok with them eating that food if we had not been in the food court. that was completely overwhelming.
even though this day was an absolute beast, i am really proud of the way i stayed OP. but i've also realized that my biggest challenges will be the weekends when i have less control over the schedule. definitely staying the hell away from the food court from now on!

day 3 mid-afternoon snack
oatmeal raisin crunch bar
this is REALLY good. not 'good for diet food' good. like, i really want a cookie good.
feeling suddenly tired. not sure if its the diet or the fact that my kid keeps getting up at 4am for the day. probably a little of both.<br>

Day 3 breakfast - lunch
breakfast: MBS oatmeal AGAIN ;) i like it so i figure i will stick with it until i run out.
coffee, splend and a little bit of the powder from a french vanilla shake pack.
I'll have to get used to this but its not bad at all. But you have to keep in mind that i am the type to put a little coffee in my cream.
snack: nacho chilli cheese puffs
i enjoyed these a lot. If you are having a hungry day or a day when you feel a strong urge to snack, this is a great choice. there is a lot of product in that tiny bag and they have a ton of flavor. these would be good for movie night while the husband chows down on popcorn.
lunch: chicken and wild rice soup
this one needs MAJOR soak time. but this is by far my favorite soup so far.
feeling really good today. i'm nervous for the weekend and the change in routine. but i am hopeful that i will stay on plan as best i can. we've got a busy weekend ahead and plan on eating out at least once. I am already looking at the menu and planning what i will order. might sound a little obsessive but i would rather go in knowing what i am getting than let all the yummy foods distract me from my goal.
