Lunch: Pinto beans and rice with a micro green salad
Dinner: Roasted red pepper and sweet potato bisque with roasted aspargus and almonds

The thought of eating miso soup, avocado, and mashed chick peas for breakfast was kind of disgusting so I opted for fruit instead. I had a nice big bowl of strawberries, an apple, and an orange. Lunch was a bit overwhelming today as there was a TON of food. I ate most of the pinto beans and salad, but very little of the rice. I have noticed that I am filling up fast, which means my portion sizes are decreasing. That is probably a good lesson, one I needed a refresher course on. The roasted red pepper and sweet potato soup was pretty good. Not my favorite recipe thus far, but maybe something I would make again. The good news is that the food prep has seemed to decrease a little bit. Or, maybe I am becoming a better chef! Still lots of chopping though!
A few people have asked me about caloric intake. I have not been calculating, but I would guess anywhere between 1000 and 1200 calories. The calories have definitely decreased as the reset moves on, but I still have rarely felt hungry. Remember, I am not exercising.
Today was the first day where I really felt some side effects. I had a headache all day long and I was freezing. I just couldn't warm up...at all. Tea before bed helped, but I still had to wear pants and a long sleeve shirt to bed, which is unusual for me. The headache just lingered all day and no amount of water was going to take care of it, believe me, I tried. I am slammed at work so, that helped me get through the headache, but it is still annoying.
I am craving M&M's and pizza. Guess some tea will have to do.
Until tomorrow...
