Mayo Clinic Diet - Day 2

My morning was a rush! I was supposed to wake up at 6:00 am. But at 4:00 am, I woke up, checked my watch, and went back to sleep. When I woke up again, it was already 7:00 am! I only had 30 minutes to prepare everything! I had to be in school by 7:45am!

I went down and prepared our breakfast... which was basically the same like yesterday. I put the chicken in the oven for our lunch (which I pre-cooked the other night) and put rice in the rice cooker for my kids' lunch. I think I swallowed my food instead of chewing them. But I didn't have time. Then I went up again and showered and ironed my clothes (yes, I know, I didn't prepare the other night because I was thinking of doing the ironing the next day). That's a lesson learned.

I was quite impressed though because I did all these in 30 minutes.

I walked to school because hubby was still sleeping when I left.

This morning in school, I started to have a headache. I walked home again after school because hubby wasn't around yet and the kids didn't go to school and I was wondering what happened to them... only to realize later that all of them went to Daddy's office because they all woke up late... like 9:45am.

Anyways, to make a long story short, I had a headache the whole day. My brain was screaming for caffeine, I guess. So I checked the menu list again and see if I could find some excuses. And yes, I found one: Limit the caffeine intake as it is a catalyst that would slow down the fat burning process. One cup a meal was the limit! Why haven't I read that before?

So I made myself coffee. I planned to make it black but couldn't push it down my throat so I added one teaspoon of sugar. Cheater! I wonder if one teaspoon of sugar would make a difference? Like I would gain back the weight I have lost? I read from the reviews that one of them used cheese in the salad and she gained back whatever she lost and gained 1 kg more!

Tonight, we basically had the same food for dinner as what we had last night. And 1 glass of tomato juice for bedtime drinks.

My excuse in taking coffee is that I can't be dieting and cutting off my coffee intake at the same time! I would go mad considering that I would be standing practically for half a day in school! So, yes, I'm back to coffee. Tomorrow, I will lighten it down a bit.

So there. My day 2 diet and a headache.

So far... so... good? Hmmm...
