The Diet... again.

So, firstly, here are the pictures of the spaghetti spaghetti squash. The one pic is a comparison of spaghetti noodles and spaghetti squash "noodles." The other is the final product, with sauce and a sliced up string cheese stick, because, you know, I can.

I got one of my co-workers to go on the diet with me. She said she wanted to lose some weight. Well, I've lost 10 lbs. since I started the diet. And it's hard, I'm not going to lie, and there are some days I don't adhere to it strictly... I'm not saying I eat what I shouldn't, but, for example, yesterday I wasn't feeling well, so, I didn't really eat much at lunch. So, I didn't adhere to my 4-6 oz. protein for lunch. I did eat a little more protein than I should have at dinner... not necessarily to compensate, but, I was hungry.

One of my wonderful doctors (I work at a heart surgeon's office) brought in fresh beignets for the staff today. I had to give him crap. I love beignets, but, obviously, with my diet, I can't have them. And last week was one of our NP's birthdays, and so someone brought in cupcakes, and a bunch of candy. I passed on it all. I did however dream of eating pizza the other night. That was weird. I've never dreamed of food before... but even in my dream, I was good. I took a bite of the cheese pizza, and then I was like... wait, I can't have this, and so I just picked the cheese off and ate the cheese. When I woke up, I was like- WOAH! Even dream me needs this change. :)
