So far using the My Fitness Pal app has allowed me to make lots of choices in food so long as I stay within certain calorie allotments.
I had suggested that I was planning on following my friend, Karen's 2-week fasting plan, but I'm not feeling it. I did make her delicious lentil soup, and I made a lot of it. It's been nice to scoop out a cup or two and enjoy in a warm mug while I work. Those gentle lentils are beginning to grow on me.
Karen's green smoothies, however, aren't an option. In all fairness, I tried this morning - and not to be gross - it didn't make it to my stomach. One touch on the back of my throat and that was it. The smell and texture were not a good fit. Thank goodness I was by the sink. So, whey protein shakes will continue - at least for the forseeable future. I'm missing Karen's magic touch. She always had a way to make the BEST coffee I have ever had, and I'm sure her green smoothies are just as delicious, but whatever I did today, I don't want to do again.
I'll continue to make good choices and log my food with a goal to lose 5 pounds by October 22nd.
