Nora’s Weight Loss: Day 4–First 360° Meal
By
Food
Tonight was my first meal from the 360° Weight Loss meals. I had the Dill Salmon with veggies. It was DELICIOUS. (See picture.) All I added was a bit of pepper to the vegetables. The salmon was cooked just right. I hope all the food is as good as this! I did have a bit of a chocolate craving after dinner. But I had to only eat a few almonds to satisfy me.
Water
I have been drinking a lot more water the past few days. Before, if I drank 24 oz of anything a day, that was considered a lot of liquid. I am now trying to drink 40+ oz a day. I understand the importance of water in my diet and I realize my intake of liquids was probably putting my body in a permanent state of dehydration. The problem I am facing is every 15-20 minutes I have to go to the bathroom. It is quite annoying. I hope this is just a temporary side effect until I get properly hydrated.
Muscles
As for my muscles, they still are aching and every so often I feel them wobble beneath me. I decided to do some yoga to try and stretch the soreness out. That seemed to help for a bit. I found if I sat down at the computer for an hour or so, the achiness came back. I hope my efforts today will help before tomorrow’s workout.
Spirits
I really am in good spirits. I really thought this would be harder. I thought I would be craving pasta and peanut butter and cheese. I really haven’t thought about them. Well, maybe I have thought about peanut butter. When I started this I was determined to succeed. Now four days into it, I feel that it maybe easier than I anticipated…the diet, not the exercise.
