Day 2 - It was a long day...


I’ve been tired today.  My youngest daughter was sick all night, which meant we were up most of the night with her.  The poor thing could keep anything down.  My wife, who is the greatest woman ever, volunteered to rock with her so I could get some sleep.  This was a very kind gesture, but I still didn’t sleep well.  I was too worried about my little girl and so I tossed and turned all night.

I ended up staying home this morning while my wife went to work and then she would come home early so I could work this afternoon.

With the little one being sick, it put a damper in our plans to go grocery shopping last night.  I should have been more prepared for this diet plan of mine but I’m a procrastinator.  Because of this, I really had to scrounge around the house for breakfast this morning.

Breakfast

2 small ham steaks
1 cup of coffee w/ 1 tablespoon of creamer

Lunch (I was in a rush to get to work)

Chick-Fil-A grilled chicken breast (no bun or condiments)
Atkins protein bar

Dinner

8oz sirloin steak
String cheese
Jello cup

My water intake has been much better today.  Throughout the day I had about 80 oz of water. 
I didn’t have as much activity today.  I had a great plan of getting up early this morning and doing some stretches that my book recommended.  But as soon as the alarm went off this morning I hit the snooze button and loved every minute of the extra time in bed.  Tomorrow will be better.

Activity

Walked 1.3 miles

We went grocery shopping tonight.  The bakery smelled especially good tonight.  They also had a perfectly glazed donut that would have been the perfect dessert.  But seeing how I’m only on day 2, I’m not ready to give up yet.
