Cabbage Soup Diet – day 3: setback

Day 2 was not as successful for me as day1 was.  In fact, my weight was 165.2 so I gained .8 lbs.  I did not cheat but I have over 30 bug bites from being outside the other night.  I totally blame them.

Yesterday was veggie and baked potato day.  Along with my soup, I was allowed to eat veggies and one baked potato with butter.

Here’s what I ate and drank yesterday sort of in order of having it throughout the day:

• 20 oz water
• 10 oz hot tea
• 20 oz iced tea mixed w/ cranberry juice
• cucumbers & tomatoes dipped in a mixture of salt/pepper/water & 1 tbsp =Italian Dressing
• 20 oz water
• 20 oz iced tea mixed w/ cranberry juice
• 20 oz water
• medium bowl of cabbage soup
• 1/2 bag of baby carrots (I found some spray butter in the fridge – not sure what it is made of but I did put some on the carrots – I needed flavor)
• medium bowl of cabbage soup
• 20 oz water
• 1 baked potato with butter
• 20 oz water

I was pretty full most of the day.  The veggies were good and I felt satisfied.

Since I started at 167, I am down in total 1.8 lbs.  Not earth-shattering but again I don’t put a whole lot of stock in the daily weights because they fluctuate for me.  Plus, there are the bug bites….

Trisha has continued to lose weight and has lost a total of 2.6 lbs in 2 days.  (rude)

Today is simply a mixture of fruits and veggies along with the soup.  I am going to make a conscious effort to drink a bit more water today, although yesterday I spent so much time peeing I was afraid to leave the house.  I’ve been trying to workout but frankly every time I try, my itchies flare up.  My feet, ankles and calves are covered in bites.
