Jumpstart: Day 4

One of these things is not

like the others...

It always helps to have a little

support from your friends when making

lifestyle changes. Meet one of mine.

  

This is the final day of the Jumpstart program. The third day was much easier than the last two. I vowed to give up Sassy Water more than once but continued using it. Although they do recommend drinking it throughout the 28-Day program, I will not include it in my own plan.

I have followed the program very closely, although I did have had an 8 oz. cup of coffee (with half-n-half) and 5 or 6 Triscut Thin Crisps the past two evenings. 

I will now begin the 28-Day plan, which includes things like whole grain waffles topped with semisweet chocolate chips, guacamole dip and mango strawberry smoothies.  The trip to the market should be rather interesting looking at the shopping list for the week.

Here is the menu for today:

Breakfast

1 packet instant Cream of Wheat

1 cup fat-free milk

1/4 cup roasted or raw unsalted sunflower seeds

1/2 cup unsweetened apple

Glass of Sassy Water
