Happy day. I work up this morning and did my "official" Round One Weigh In for Diet Bet and I am confirmed a winner in this round. Officially down 6.8 pounds since October 25th. Five of those in the past 9 days. This crazy "diet" is working.
After I submitted my weigh in I made myself a cup of Yogi Detox tea which I sipped while I prepped breakfast. I didn't hear my George Foreman "ding" so I overcooked my breakfast patty, thank goodness for the mushrooms.
We went shopping for weekend supplies after breakfast. Caught the meat market at a good time and only had to wait about 10 minutes for service. Stocked up on New York Strip Steaks, London Broil, a whole Beef Tenderloin and 2 beautiful Delmonico Rib Eyes (for Friday). I plan to portion the tenderloin and freeze it in individual portions ( marked with weight). The trimmings I will save for Christmas fondue Bourguignonne. We also stopped at Kroger for some Simple Truth Organic Chicken Breasts and Pork Tenderloins.
