I'm going to start weighing myself weekly to see my progress... Breakfast Half of Myoplex BAR YUCKY! YUCKY! never again Lunch 2 chicken nuggets Cup of Chili with crumbled crackers, sour cream, cheese Not hungry just Nervous Eating!!!!!!! Snack Carrots, black olives and celery sticks half piece of turkey Drinks Lite Lemonade dinner ????

Nutrition Class was ok
I was late as ususal they didnt want to let me in at first but I talked my way in. I needed to attend the class in order to get my 1st fill on Monday! I'm so excited about the fill! I have no restriction right now its been 5 weeks since I've been banned! I had lost 15 pounds as of the 22nd of March not sure what my weight is now. Kinda scared to find out, I've been eating like a nut. My water intake as increased and my bread intake has also. I know when I get my fill I will have restriction and I will lose weight! thanks for listening Cameron??? why??
