Day 7

Today was the first day that I had real cravings for naughty food.  But it was probably my fault.  I didn't plan well and after I took Little Bit to his doctor's appointment I ran into a friend in the grocery store...we chatted for 45 mins and I didn't realize how close it had gotten to lunch.  I still had stuff to get and walking past the rows of bread and chips and soda was tough...I would have caved if my pocketbook hadn't stopped me.  (After all Isagenix isn't cheap and I want to get my money's worth!) Well I finished as quick as I could, zipped home (35 mins away) and ended up having my lunch and hour and a half late.  Eyecarumba!  I will NOT be doing that again.  

Other than that, things are going pretty good.  We marinated a bunch of chicken tenderloins in a McCormick's 'Mexican Fiesta' spice packet (plus extra garlic and some fresh ground pepper) for 24 hours, cooked them on the grill and divided them into proper portions (about 4oz).  They are DELICIOUS!  I went back to the store to get a few more packets of that marinade because it's so good!  

For lunch today I wrapped the chicken, green pepper slices, and cucumber slices in lettuce.  Yummy, yummy!

Day 3

Today was a little bit rougher...not sure if it's the heat or what, but I was tired.  And hungry.  

Today's New Shake:

Chocolate Cinnamon: 8oz water, handful of ice, 2 scoops IsaLean Chocolate Shake mix, 2 packets truvia, 1 Tbs cocoa powder, cinnamon extract.  This was SUPER yummy...tasted like a melted down, blended up chocolate covered cinnamon bear.  Mmmm

Day 2

I tried Want More Energy in my shake today (Nathan had it yesterday and he really liked it)...I put it in the chocoalte and I was not a fan...but Nathan thinks it's yummy.  Guess it's just a personal preference!  

New Shake Recipes:

Key Lime: 8oz water, handful of ice, 2 scoops IsaLean Vanilla shake mix, 2 packets truvia, lemon extract.  Ok, so it isn't Lime (haven't found lime extract yet)...but with the vanilla and the lemon is did taste like a key lime pie...it was yummy and very refreshing on a hot summer night.  

Vanilla WME: 8oz water, handful of ice, 2 scoops IsaLean Vanilla shake mix, 2 packets truvia, 1 envelope orange Want More Energy

Day 1

Today went better than I thought.  I have been on so many diets that I was expecting, as I had learned from past experience, to be hungry all day.  But I wasn't...and I know it may have been a placebo affect, but I FELT better.  

Today's shakes: 

Chocolate mint: 8oz water, handful of ice, 2 scoops of IsaLean Creamy Chocolate Shake Mix, 2 packets of Truvia, pure mint extract

Chocolate WME: 8oz water, handful of ice, 2 scoops of IsaLean Creamy Chocolate Shake Mix, 1 packet of Orange Want More Energy (WME)
