42in33's Journal, 20 August 2010

I've gotten a new diet instruction from my doctor. It's his own diet, and he says that the diet isn't something to keep forever (It's apparently the "first stage" of his diet plan). It's carb free except for my breakfast (choice of oatmeal, all bran buds, with 2 tbs of ground flax seed (it smells horrible, luckily the taste isn't as bad as the scent haha), and either 1/2 tsp of honey or 1tsp of cinnamon). I'm to eat 6 times a day including 3 snacks (2 of which are fruit, the other is 10-15 almonds and then to use a piece of dark chocolate as a lozenge). The only red meat I can eat is bison-I've never had it before but bought some ground bison so on "hamburger night" I can have that instead haha.

I'll see how much weight I lose in two weeks of this diet. If it is significantly more than Weight Watchers, I'll consider sticking with this diet. Otherwise I'll just go back to WW.

I'm trying to treat this as a game instead of a "sentence" haha. We shall see!!
