Day 13 (24DC 11) First Day of MNS

Instated my MNS Max 3 today. That's the 2nd part of the 24 Day Challenge. I HATE taking pills, and I get a knot in my stomach if I take too many, so the next 2 weeks will take a lot of will power for me. I'm excited about the results in my near future, thought.

On the MNS, you take a handful of pills 30 minutes before you eat, and then more when you eat. You use it before and with breakfast and lunch.

For breakfast I had 2 eggs and grapes.

I had a cutie after the gym. I only got in 52 minute because my baby got fussy and had to be picked up.

I'm having half of a grilled chicken sandwich from Sonic for lunch.

I'm having a bit of a problem with the MNS MAX 3. It works so well at suppressing my appetite, it's like a chore to choke down my food. That's not necessarily a bad thing, but it makes it very hard to even drink water. I don't want anything in my stomach at all, and there's kind of a knot in my tummy. It's just my first day with it, so hopefully these little things balance out.

I had an apple for a snack.

I had the other half of my grilled chicken sandwich for dinner.

I'm having a late snack a little earlier than usual, and its kind of on the borderline of creating. It's frosted mini wheats in 1% milk. It's certainly not a cheeseburger or a bowl of ice cream, but I'm feeling pretty guilty about it. Cheating has been on my mind so much, I figured breaking the rules just a smidgen would keep me on track longer.

Ok. I'm having a bad day for snacking and wanting to binge eat. I'm having another snack. I'm doing my best to eat healthy things, and not drive to McDonald's. I'm having an emotional day, and since I quit smoking, food is my go-to comfort habit. Please do not think I'm saying its ok to have 2 snacks after dinner, as long as its healthy food!! I'm not saying that! All saying, is I'm human. I have a tendency to binge eat when I'm emotional. I feel like 2 healthy snacks is a better alternative than going out for fast food. I'm having a pice of whole wheat bread, with natural peanut butter, and bananas. I really need to get my emotions together before I screw up another day! Having eaten too much, today, makes me even more emotional!! Ahhh!!!
