Special K Update

Well...we did it. It didn't really do anything for me (except force me to eat more than I usually do). Erik says that he thinks he lost weight, but not a whole jeans size. Oh well!

On another food-related note, I'm going to try cooking more. Now that I don't have rehearsals every night (at least for a little while) I have more time and energy when I get home from work. I usually just guess how to make things, but I think I'm going to try actually looking at recipes and making things correctly. I also want to find something awesome that I can make and bring to my family's Thanksgiving. The women in my family are pretty much all super-cooks, so it will be pretty difficult to impress them.

I may, from time to time, post some recipes that I've tried or am thinking of trying. Maybe this will turn into a topic for my blog! Right now it's just kind of anything...

And my boyfriend is awesome.

Let's see how this goes...

So, Erik and I decided to try the Special K Challenge...basically you replace two of your meals each day with Special K products (cereal, waffles, protein bars/shakes). You then eat your third meal as normal. You are also allowed to eat fruit, veggies and drink beverages as normal.

Day 1: I'M STARVING!!

I think the problem is that I don't usually eat breakfast. I usually go to work, drink some coffee, have lunch and eat dinner later. Eating breakfast this morning really threw me off and now I want to eat everything in sight. Including the huge bowl of dum-dums sitting on my desk. The idea was to eat breakfast, have an early dinner with my boyfriend around 4 and then a snack later on. Yikes.

Four more hours until I can eat....
