Military Diet Day 1

Ok. So I know a lot of you (that know me) will say "why are you on a diet? You are skinny." With that said, yes, I am skinny but not happy with the 5-ish lbs that I have gained in the past few months. How the heck did that happen? I knew I felt a little bigger. 5 lbs on someone my size is noticeable. I exercise regularly but I haven't been eating all that well. So, I decided to try the military diet. It's a 3 day diet. You can either do it once or you can do 3 days on, 4 days off until you have reached your goal weight. I'll be doing just the 3 days. I'll probably continue to cut calories too but not quite as much as the diet. I did Zumba this morning too so I burned some calories too. Probably should have eaten a little more to make up for that but I wanted to follow this exactly to see what my real results will be.

So, day 1. I weighed myself this morning on my Wii and it said 122. YIKES!! I haven't weighed that much in a while!! Not happy with that. Anywho...I don't know how accurate that is because it was the Wii and also day 3 of my cycle (AF). Not that you needed to know that but it may make a difference. 

Today's food was 

Breakfast: 1/2 grapefruit, 2 TBSP of Peanut Butter and 1 slice of whole wheat toast. It also says coffee or tea but I can't drink either one without sugar so I drank water. 

Lunch: 1 can of Tuna (in water), 1 slice of bread or toast (whole wheat) and coffee (water for me)

Dinner: FINALLY some food!! I ate before 5:00 because I was starving!!! 
    3 oz of any type of meat (I had chicken breast), 1/2 banana, 1 small apple, 1 cup green beans and one cup of VANILLA Ice Cream! Whoohoo! Dessert!! 

After day one, I'm dreading days 2 and 3. I have had a headache half of the day. Not sure if it's because of hunger or just coincidence. I'll let you know after tomorrow. Tomorrow's lunch looks really minimal. I did really well today and did not cheat though a few items looked really tasty!!!!!!

I did increase my water intake from a typical day so that's good. I actually drank almost the recommended daily amount. 

1 Corinthians 6:19-20
Or do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit within you, whom you have from God? You are not your own, for you were bought with a price. So glorify God in your body.
