First Day Of NS 2/26/2007

To those of you who don't know, I started NutriSystem yesterday to help me lose some weight. I just wanted to share with ya'll how that first day went :-) If I lose some weight, I'll let ya'll know :-) Maybe by reunion time (carri, nif and Jenn) I'll be a little slimmer! YAY! Love you all!!!!
So already 24 hours down and 1 full day of NS meals, and I’m feeling pretty good. I didn’t mind the Nutri Flakes. Those were actually pretty good. The Black Bean Tortilla Soup, I messed that one up BIG TIME!! I didn’t put enough water in there, and messed it up with the corn etc…. So it tasted somewhat gummy and goopy. Not exactly what you want to taste. I braved the Chicken Breast Patty which tasted like the smell of tuna cat food. Something about Chicken that looks like that and tastes like that, there is something wrong with it. I did get all of my fruits and veggies in, as well as all my water. I even went for a walk with my Dad and "Bella" last night. I spaced my meals and snacks out perfectly so I really wasn’t all that hungry. Last night Snack was the pouch of Crunchy Cheese Curls that were YUMMY!!! They tasted like baked Cheetos! The one obstacle that I thought would be a problem was the dairy. I’m not one to like yogurt (only every now and then.. have to be in the mood for it) and I’m the same way with Cottage Cheese. BUT…. I actually enjoyed those yesterday! I had strawberry Yogurt and Key Lime Yogurt. Both were very tasty. The cottage cheese I kinda had to grin and bear it, but I did it, and I’m alive to tell you about it.
So here goes the next 24 hours. So far I’ve had the blueberry muffins and those weren’t half bad. I’m going to have the Veggie Beef Stew for lunch today along with a salad and some other items on my list. I’m drinking my water… I did add some of the Green Tea Mandarin and Mango To Go to the water, and it’s actually pretty good. It tastes like tang a little bit, and I’m still getting my water in. So YAY!!! Anyway, I just figured I’d share that with ya’ll!
