Nutrisystem Days 1-2
So when we finally got the boxes of nutrisystem and they were fucking heavy...which was awesome for me. i was expecting some sort of little tiny box where everything was in powder form.
We split up the cabinets and made an area for brook's breakfasts, lunches and dinners and mine on the opposite side. There was so much food that we had to clean out a drawer and put some of my dinners and desserts in it.
Also, after looking at all of the directions for the nutrisystem diet, we found that we would also have to buy some dairy, protein, fatty, and salad items (the salad items we did not buy). The point of the diet is for you to not feel hungry because you eat 5 times a day, but to eat proper portions of food and maintain a healthier eatting lifestyle.
Breakfast: I had Scrambled Eggs with Cheddar Cheese. Now, i think anyone else would have given up after opening the cup it comes in. it was powder! but after following the easy to use directions, they magically turned into good scrambled eggs with cheddar cheese. I was astonished, but it was tasty. We also got to eat fruit and dairy with breakfast.
Lunch: I think i ate to late, but I did have some yummy cheese tortellini that smelled like chef boyardee. Then i ate a cheese stick with it and was quite content.
Snack: skipped it!
Dinner: Cheese ravioli with basil sauce, 2 cups of raw mushrooms, 5 large black olives, and a tangelo. Probably one of the most filling dinners i've had in a while. I was suprised to find myself full of all good foods!!
Dessert: THE MOST AWESOME STRAWBERRY SHORTCAKE BAR I'VE HAD IN MY LIFE!! i wish i had just ordered all of those as my desserts!!
You are also required to drink at least 64 ounces of water a day because it helps the food to settle and digest and water is amazing for you regardless. You can also drink unlimited amounts of diet soda, coffee, and tea on this diet. its pretty awesome.

This morning I got up and I had some cereal for breakfast, which was good, but a very small volume, which i'm not used to. But i had some milk and orange juice with it and it was very tasty.
About to go drink some water and start drowning myself for today. More to come soon.
All in all, it's been a good adventure for 2 days. just 362 days to go!!
