Day 7 (24DC-5) Feeling Better!

I woke up at 8, but I took a pretty long time remembering to eat. I don't get hungry in the mornings, so on a weekends when my schedule is relaxed, I have to really remember to eat for my challenge. I had 2 eggs and a cutie, with a Spark. I took my OmegaPlex, but forgot to take my probiotic, again! It's ok, though. Ill take it before I eat anything else. I guess we'll find out, soon, how effective the AdvoCare Herbal Cleanse is for the unmediated ADHD dieter.

I took the probiotic shortly after the morning update. I know I'm very forgetful, but I'm not giving up on this! I actually asked my doctor for ADHD medicine to help me through this detailed change in my life, and she referred me to a psychiatrist to get it. I turned her down because we don't have health insurance right now, but I'm glad I did. It would be easier for me to wake up on time, stay on schedule, remember things, and generally stay motivated. But, ADHD medications have a reputation for rapid weight loss, and I didn't want to mislead anyone following my journey. I plan to see big results, and very fast. I don't want that success credited to a medication. I want anyone who is trying to lose weight to know that I am doing this naturally, so that they will know that they can do it, too! All of this is to say, please don't assume that I am being irresponsible, or not taking this seriously because I forget things. Every decision or plan I make, now, revolves around this 100 pound journey. Ill get the grove of things soon, and ill be more consistent about my supplements!!

Now, for a snack, I had 2 cuties, and some almonds.

Meal replacement shake for lunch.

I finally made it to the grocery store! Thanks to my mom for watching the kids, I left the house for the first time in days! For dinner, I had deli sliced turkey, 4 strawberries, and ice water with lemon.

Just took the OmegaPlex. Forgot to take it during dinner.

I feel like my snack tonight was way too much! It may just be because I'm so accustomed to eating small portions, lately, but I may have over eaten. I had a piece of whole grain bread, with all natural peanut butter, and half a banana, sliced on top. All of those things are 24 Day Challenge appropriate, and the bread was thin sliced, and I used a very thin layer of peanut butter. It sounds fine, but it feels like too much in my tum tum. I should have used my Carb-Ease!
