Tues. July 19, 2011

Today took a short (15') walk in the AM . . . way out of shape! It'll take some gradual time to get back into it.

Protein drink in the morning, some nuts and cheese in the afternoon, then to friends for dinner: bison steak, salmon (both YUM!), tomato and avocado salad, corn on the cob (I had half of an ear) and cantaloupe. Half glass of Prosecco before dinner and a very small eclair for dessert. First bit of wheat in the eclair that I've had since beginning this. More on wheat/grains in a few days.

Overall, not too bad, considering. Mostly friendly, moderate (but not low) carb.

Wednesday will eat a bland, fiber-free diet, Thursday is prep day for a colonoscopy (all clear liquids), nothing to eat or drink after midnight Thursday, then colonoscopy sometime Friday morning. I would imagine I won't pig out after the procedure. That means that it's likely Saturday's weigh-in (after totally emptying myself out!) will be lower than one would expect . . . and that the following week (after gaining back water weight) might not show much difference. That's OK! Just want to keep moving in the right direction.
