These last few days have been awful.  We all came down with the flu.  I still feel like a truck ran over me and decided to back up and do it again.  So the few pounds I lost do not seem to matter since I could not eat anything.  I do not even remember Monday or Tuesday of this week.  So much for keeping up with this blog.

Step 2  - Is less chocolate.  I love chocolate and eat it daily.  Not just chocolate but chocolate as in brownies, cupcakes, and all Little Debbie kind of chocolate.  I eat at least 2 or 3 snack cakes a day.  I tell myself it is just dessert after my meal.  Maybe the flu will help with this as I have not had any chocolate since Sunday.  I can actually say I still do not want any.  However I know the cravings will be back so I am going to dark Dove chocolates.  I think one piece after a meal is enough dessert.

When I try to think of all the extra calories I was eating I shiver.  Of course my meals during the day was a bowl of dry cereal for breakfast and toast for lunch. So lets add my first meal of the day.

Old  Breakfast                                                                 New Breakfast                        
1 cup of wheat chex  -  103.5                                      1 cup wheat chex - 103.5
20 oz Mt. Dew          -  300                                          iced tea               -    0
Total                             403.5                                        Total                     103.5

Then if I add in a brownie after breakfast it would add 290 more. A total of 403 - 693 just for breakfast.

No more I need to remember new life.
