South Beach, day 14

Last day of Phase 1

Breakfast: 1 egg, fried in non-stick pan with spray canola oil. 2 slices Canadian bacon. 1 tomato, cut into slices, grilled.

Morning snack: Skipped.

Lunch: Crab Louis salad -- I really overshot my calorie count here, as I forgot to order the dressing on the side. I also had an Italian soda and a 1/2 cup of cocoa nib ice cream. It's the end of phase 1 -- sue me. :)

Afternoon snack: A couple of bites of cottage cheese.

Dinner: I wasn't hungry, so I ended up putting it off and just having half-again as much yogurt, with some agave nectar and lemon juice on top.

Dessert: See above.

Things I've Learned:
1) Or rather, haven't learned. I still haven't weighed myself.

2) Spore Origins is FUN. :)

South Beach, Phase 2, Day 1

So, today is Phase 2. I get to start adding whole-grain carbs and fruit back in slowly, along with certain other enjoyable things (like wine). I had brunch out at Crave this morning with Misty, and this is what we did.

Breakfast: 2 poached eggs with hollandaise, proscuitto, 1/2 piece of sourdough bread (no, that's not what I ordered. I ordered oat-hazelnut bread, but sometimes you have to roll with it). 1/2 pear, 1/2 apple, 1 slice of orange, 1 chai with milk, and water.

Morning snack: nope. Don't have to now unless I need it.

Lunch: 2 slices turkey, 1 laughing cow cheese wedge, 3 triscuits

Afternoon snack: 7 slices cucumber, 3 tbsp hummus, 1 small glass white wine

Dinner: Crustless broccoli and onion quiche

Dessert: Plain yogurt w/agave nectar, per normal. Though I may have to start looking into alternate desserts at some point in here. :) -- oh, broke down and added 4 raspberries.

Thoughts
1) I wish I liked cooking more than I do. That would make this all a lot easier. Next item on the burner: braised chicken in coconut milk. We shall see.
2) Man, fruit is sweet. Most of the time, even. Had my baseline gotten out of whack or what?
