Thoughts: It's 7:00 am. A two-pound drop on the scale! I'm not elated, because I don't believe it'll stick around, though I'm willing to be pleasantly surprised! Still, it's something. I've done plenty of low-calorie, 1000/day or less dieting in the past, and I've NEVER registered a 2-pound drop overnight. So even if it's just water loss, the Fat Fast definitely does SOMETHING. After all, I lost only two pounds on two weeks of Induction! Well, we'll see what the rest of the day brings! Time for brekkie, oh boy!

Evening: Oddly enough, didn't feel particularly hungry today. Ate breakfast, but lunch was a bit of a struggle; I didn't finish the food I brought to work with me. As a result, I ate most of today's calorie allotment at dinner, after my workout: bad, bad girl! So I fell a bit short of 1794 calories, but can't eat another bite tonight. Also fell a bit short on carbs, but 16 gm (not including fibre) is close. I hope avocado counts as a green vegetable!
