I made it through my first day on Medifast. My lean and green meal didnt' turn out as lean or green as I would have liked. I went out to eat and had 2 pieces of bread with "promise" spread; salad; prime rib and butternut squash. I still don't think I did that bad after cutting away all the fat on the prime rib I think there were only 6 oz of lean meat. I only took one bite of the squash and since it was loaded with butter I passed on the rest. I did not eat my last medi-fast snack of the day. So hopefully I didn't ruin my diet already.

Yesterday afternoon I got my drop shipment of a month's worth of "Diabetic Plus" food from Medifast. So, I started the diet this morning with the blue berry oatmeal.

It didn't look like any instant oatmeal I have ever seen before. It looks more like plaster of paris mix with some blue things in it. It cooked up into a rather gelatinous blob which I managed to eat. Tomorrow I will try more water. I have 4 boxes of the stuff so I better get used to it.

The chili that I had for lunch was bland but at least looked like most vegetarian chili that I have had in the past.

In one of my more lucid moments, unfogged by copious amounts of halloween candy, I have decided that I need to pull out all the stops to lose some weight. Over the past few days I have eaten an entire box of Russel Stover chocolates, except for the 2 roman nougat pieces, those are just gross! And a large bargain bag of Halloween candy, except for the nestle crunch bars, they were kind of stale.
