Cheating a little but still going strong with the special k diet. So far I have lost 5 lbs :-D. I probably won't lose anything by tomorrow due to the cheating I did today. I think this diet was good in it prevented me from constant unnecessary snacking, however I think I needed the diet to stop me. I don't think I am strong enough to stop without a reason.

I need to fit in a dress for my cousins wedding july 17. So I will try to remain on this diet so I can fit the dress. The dress was 1 size too small. Lets see what happens.

Here I am day 2 of the diet. I am not hungry and am barely eating, but I think it has nothing to do with the diet. I think it other things.

Yesterday I ate
strawberry banana smooth with skim milk and low fat vanilla bean ice cream

At lunch time,
I drank bloody Mary mix with a slice of lime

dinner:
I ate Italian pasta with imitation crab meat
tropical fruit punch ( 9 oz)

Other stuff:
drank water and pomegranate green tea with honey

So I think I am way below calories and i guess it can still be considered the special k diet.

I am allowed to drink whatever I want, which I did. I replaced the breakfast with the smoothly and I'm allowed to eat whatever I want for dinner.

special k diet

So today I started the special K diet. I have been keeping track of what I eat just not on the blog, I was keeping track with my cousins. Well she bailed, that doesn't matter tho.

I found the special k diet from a commerical and I decided to try it. I do believe this is just a scam to sell there products only, so I am going to slightly modify I go along.

Basically they want u to eat a breakfast of either cereal with skim milk or cereal bar with milk. I usually eat cereal so that won't be too difficult. I have never tasted their cereals so we will see how that goes.

For either lunch or dinner you will replace 1 with a meal replacement drink or bars. I bought a ton of cereal bars, so that will have to work for one of the meals. I might reconsider and buy the protein bars, we'll see.

For the other major meal you can eat whatever you want. I am excited about that, because I think that should make it easier to stick with. I only cook dinner for my husband so I want to be able to eat dinner with him.

The other 2 snacks of the day should be should be cereal bar, special k drink options, etc.

Today, I started the day later then normal so I decided instead of the protein shake or bar, I would just make a smoothy. I put fresh bananas, strawberries, skim milk and vanilla ice cream.

I have weight myself today and I am going to measure my waist. It says in 2 weeks u will lose 1 inch off your waist or 6 lbs.
