Day One: Test Drive

Hey Dad! I hope you had a great night last night watching Frank's volleyball game. I heard they swept the other team and won all their games!  Give him a huge hug for me, please!!

So, this is kind of how I imagine this blog will work.  Your job is to comment and update me on any weight change (yay!!!) and tell me exactly what you had for breakfast, snacks, lunch, and dinner. You can update with multiple comments throughout the day or you can make one big post, but you have to include all those items along with any deviations from the menu.  Now, here's the most important thing about that last part:

You have to be 100% honest.  If you change the menu, or go off of it, it's really important that we document it. It's not apocalyptically horrifying if you slip up, but you have to tell me so I know what to change for tomorrow's menu or for your dinner that night. Make sense?  OK.  So here's the breakfast, lunch, and snacks menu you should have had for today. I told Bianca this last night, but just so we have it down here:

* = Wawa item

Breakfast:  (8am)
1/2 banana
1 string cheese
*2 eggs (one egg white, one whole)
*Strawberries and blueberries
4 almonds

Snack: (11am)
Hummus
*Veggie tray

Lunch: (12:30/1pm)
Turkey bacon and cheese sandwich
*Garden Salad w/ Lemon Juice
100 calorie Slimfast dessert-snack bar
6 almonds

Snack: (3:30pm)
TLC Kashi Bar
1/2 banana
4 almonds


So, since you are probably just about finishing lunch now, assess how close you are to the menu for today, and comment to this post so I know.  Then, in a few hours, I'll post your dinner menu.  Since Bianca is going to be at the supermarket when you get home, (I gave her a list last night)  tonight's dinner will be easy enough for your to put together yourself.  Just make sure you stick to it!!

I can't wait to hear from you, and I love you and miss you so so so much!!

Also I'm sooooo proud of you!!!!

Love,

Jenni

p.s. Don't forget to keep drinking water water water!!!!
