I got on the scale this morning and I’m down 5 pounds since Monday. This seems typical - loss of water and all. On day two I ate:
Breakfast - JC cereal - 200 calories
Cheddar Cheese - 100 calories
Lunch - JC Cheesy Enchiladas - 260 calories
Dinner - Grilled Chicken Breast - 130 calories
Grilled potatoes, onions & corn - 150 calories
Total calories for day 2 - 840 (not nearly enough)
Kate and I got together last night (the reason I actually cooked) and discussed our plan of attack. We thought we both would benefit from making weekly or at least daily menus ahead of time. I know that the less I have to think about food - the better off I am. So, that’s on my to-do list for today. We also agreed and Kate is far more optimistic that I - that there is hope for living a life without the obsession with food - whether it be from eating or dieting.
More later…

You might want to consider raising your calorie intake by consuming a snack between meals. It should be either fruit or protein based. For example I had a plum and a banana for one snack today and a protein shake for the other.
By the way does JC stand for Jenny Craig?
Yes - JC is Jenny Craig and not the big Guy.
I think the lack of calories yesterday was due to poor planning and lack of time. I was so busy that I forgot to eat. I know that not getting enough calories will not be good.
