My first low, low carb day was a bit sketchy toward the end but I held out and stayed strong.  I did not cheat.  I took in 148g of protein and 49g of carbohydrates.Of my list of seven things to do, I accomplished five.  Not so bad.

I think I drank a gallon of water.  I’ll try to keep better track of my quarts today.

The really good news is that holding out and staying strong really paid off.  I weighed in this morning at 209.  That is a loss of three pounds over yesterday and five pounds overall.  Not bad for three days!

Today is another low, low carbohydrate day.  Other than my morning bagel with cream cheese, it is pretty much made up of protein powder (mixed with water) and South Beach Diet Meal Bars.  I’m holding on to the possibility of getting out of the 200s before week’s end to keep me strong.  That and the fact that I can have a whopping 75g of carbohydrates tomorrow!

Day #3 was a success with three pounds lost.
