17 Day Diet- Cycle 1 Day 2

I'm excited.

Very, very excited.

I am very excited about weighing in on day 17. This time around I have decided that I am going to wait until day 17 to weight in because I know how much weigh fluctuates and I don't want to stress myself out if one morning I didn't lose.

Yesterday morning I woke up early and I was excited. I had that feeling like it was Christmas morning. Is that weird? To be so excited about a diet? I think it is because I know how well this diet can and does work. As long as you the dieter is willing to put in the work.

I went to the grocery last night and I found a few things that I could use and be creative with. And no shopping trip is complete without you forgetting something: Green Tea.

For breakfast: Eggs with Hormel's bacon bits, fat free cheddar cheese, peppers, onions, pepper, and 2 fresh eggs from the farm. And of course, lemon water!

I added in the strawberries and yogurt but I ended up eating those later.

I am not really an egg fan. But I told myself this time around that I needed them so that I could keep up my fitness routine better and not feel as tired.

Lunch ended up being the yogurt and strawberries. I took some of my sisters and cousins to the pool. Despite it being about 104 degrees today. Oh the bright side I got my exercise and tanning done.

When it is so hot it is really hard to have an appetite. All I want is a bottle of water!

For dinner I had delved into some green beans from the farmers market and a home made turkey burger. The burger was so good and so easy to make!

Here is the recipe for one serving:

Turkey Burger
 
1/4 pound ground turkey
pinch salt
1/8 tsp pepper
1/8 tsp garlic powder
a few drops of veggie oil

You are need that oil because turkey can be really, really dry.

Form the meat into a patty

Cook over medium heat until both sides are browned. If you wanna check the temperature it should read 180 degrees.
Now you say what should you do with the rest of the meat? I made some turkey taco meat for tomorrow's lunch.

I still need to get a fruit and yogurt serving in as well. Like I said things are out of order but they are much better than yesterday!

Also maybe I'll remember to get some batteries for my camera so you all don't have to deal with cell phone photos. Hopefully, I'll remember. As you have guessed I have issues.

Issues.

So until tomorrow stay cool and have some turkey!
