I woke up not really feeling that hungry and apparently didn't learn my lesson from yesterday b/c my alarm went off about 6 but I didn't get out of bed until 6:30 when my husband got out of the shower which means I was again scrambling to get breakfast and his meals sorted out for the day. Luckily I had made a smoothie yesterday and there was some left in the fridge. That was easy for him drink in a hurry. His meals for tomorrow have already been talked about and carefully arranged at eye level in the fridge. I have some errands and a play date w/ my kids so my meals could be a little trickier.

Weight: 160 (Lost half a pound!)
Breakfast @ 7:30 - 2 clean pancakes w/ 1/4 c. sugar free syrup
Mid Morning Snack @ 10:15 AM - banana, 11 almonds
Lunch @ 12:15 PM - baked chicken breast (4 oz), romaine lettuce w/ 1 tbsp. lemon juice, an apple
Mid Afternoon Snack @ 2:15 PM - 1/4 c. clean tuna on wheat crackers
Another Snack @ 5:15 PM (my timing got messed up today and I ended up eating 6 times instead of 5, I stayed w/in my allotted calories though) - 1 pear, 11 almonds
Supper @ 7:15 PM - Clean chicken and dumplings in the crockpot, 1 cup corn, handful of grapes
The last 2 days I've kept my calorie intake below 1300 and I haven't been overly hungry at the end of the day. I thought I did better again at keeping my temper and patience level in the normal range and that 2 PM nap everyone wants to take didn't come today. It might have been b/c I was cooking my ass off trying to get supper in the crockpot (left it to the last minute). I did however, get really sleepy around 6. So much so that I dozed for awhile on the couch waking periodically in a panic to make sure my children were still in the room. (Don't tell me no one else is guilty of this.) All in all I'd say the clean eating is working out pretty well. The only down side I can see right now is that neither my husband nor I want to eat the same things every day and we have so many leftovers from supper I don't want to waste food. I'm sure everything, w/ the exception of the tuna salad, will keep for awhile. Check back tomorrow to see if the pounds are still dropping!
