Good Morning Everyone!!

According to UPS, my YES and calipers will be arriving today. I'm pretty excited. I'm looking forward to weighing myself and having a better understanding of what that number means.I definitely know everything is working, slowly but working. I think this new diet will speed up the results a bit, especially since I did not eat well last month.

Anyway, I'm looking better every week (even if the change is minimal; BF cannot keep his hands off of me (I know TMI)). It's weird how I notice little changes, like I can see more of my jaw line, my thighs look smaller than a few weeks ago, or hell, even my toes and feet are slimmer.

7:00am - 2 scoops of PP mixed w/ water; 1 Biotin (@ BF's house and out of multis; will take one this evening when I get home)

9:30am - 20 almonds and 2 mugs of green tea

1:00pm - Seared salmon salad over mixed greens (greens, peppers, asparagus and orange slices) w/ spa dressing (I removed the oranges from the salad)

2:00pm - 1 large pumpernickel bagel (a little hungry after salad; usually add beans to salads so I will feel full; going forward I will bring a sweet potato with me so I have a better carb source)

5:00pm - 2 scoops of PP mixed w/ water

Dinner (I know I'm having this so adding it now) - 6.48 oz of lamb shoulder (lean eat only); 1 cup of sweet potato and 1 cup of spinach. (ALA before)

Where did you get the calipers? How much are they????

I ordered the analog calipers from the af site when I ordered my YES (I put it off for weeks; I didn't want to pay s&h for just calipers; very cheap of me - I know).

Checking my bf was the smartest thing I've done so far. Even though the number is an improvement (I assume I was around 30% when I started), it was a reality check and I'm even more determined to stick with my plan.

12:30 - 1 large salad (4 cups of spinach leaves; 1 cup of chicken breast, 4 cherry tomatoes, 4 broccoli flowerets, 2T of chick peas, 2T of black beans, 1T of unroasted sunflower seeds, and 1t of olive oil mixed w/ 1T of vinegar and lemon juice) - Didn't eat all of it; will eat remaining amount before I leave to go home (forgot PP).

Totals: TBA
Water: 1.5 liters of water (does not include tea)

4:00pm - Finished rest of salad

I know I'm having the items below, so I'm adding them now.

As soon as I walk in the door, because i will be starving - 2 scoops of PP mixed in water

Dinner - 1 cup of steamed shrimp, 1 cup of sweet potato and 1 cup of whole leaf spinach

Totals: Calories - 1367; Carbs - 84 (19%); Fats - 37 (26%); Protein - 179 (55%)
Water: 2.5 liters (Will get another liter down tonight) (Does not include tea)

I can't wait until tomorrow - I can eat a more food. 100 - 200 calories and at least 50g in additional carbs, makes a big difference.
