Breakfast: smoothie with kefir, raw egg, banana, honey, and frozen mango
Lunch: leftover spaghetti sauce with ground beef and zucchini
Snack: orange
Dinner: adzuki bean soup with carrots, smoked ham, and brown rice
Dessert: Neapolitan cheesecake...shared with the little guy
Analysis: the dessert monster won again today... maybe if I would eat more food, like good healthy food, during the day, I wouldn't want to eat sweets after dinner... Its a little crazy, but I do not keep these sweets in the house, so that means I'm actually going out to get them - talk about an addiction! I remember the first time I did this good diet thing, I was eating so much food I was never hungry, and I had to really try to eat all the stuff on my menu for the day. Then I was planning every meal ahead of time, not just dinner, and it really made a difference in terms of the veggies that I was getting, esp. I am not sure I have the time or the drive to go that far right now, but I probably need to!
You know, my chiropractor offers an electro-acupuncture treatment to help people stop smoking - I wonder if it would work for sugar addiction too?

as far as i can recall, the first time you were on this diet you didn't have a child yet, yes? give yourself some slack, you were the one who told me that life changes in a big way with kids! i think you're doing great. i only plan a meal about 10 minutes ahead of time. maybe 15 if i'm industrious. :)
