Well, today is the last day of the six-week program. I am so thankful that God has helped me through a tough diet. Tomorrow I will have my final weigh-in, and I will post that along with some closing thoughts.
Today’s meals:
Breakfast: one toasted sourdough english muffin (plain).
Lunch: hamburger patties (with onions), corn, green beans.
Supper: an english muffin with hamburger patty (and one additional half-patty).
Drinks: water.

Oops. I was going to get this one on time but it slipped my mind! Anyways, this is the last day according to the book, but I wanted to go ahead and go for six full weeks, so I still need to go until Sunday.
Today’s meals:
Breakfast: english muffin with egg (see yesterday).
Lunch: ate out at the Cockeyed Camel again. Grilled chicken with hot sauce, creamed corn, and blackeyed peas (which had a bit of bacon in them but I tried to avoid eating that).
Snack: did not have one today.
Supper: hamburger steak in tomato sauce, corn.
Drinks: water, tea (both unsweetened and sweetened with Stevia), coffee (started to drink it black but wound up putting Stevia in it).

A few more pounds lost: I’m down to 249!* I’ve crossed the 250 threshold! And only one more week to go.
* well, 249.4 to be exact, but I like to deal in round numbers. So let’s round!

I’m now down to 253! That’s about 20 pounds in only 4 weeks! I’m very excited. Also, I signed up today at the YMCA. Hopefully exercise will help this weight loss thing go even better!
Again, thanks for all the encouragement so far. I really praise God that I’ve been so successful thus far!

Day 1 of Phase III! More beans, nuts, some grains, etc. are now added in. This is, of course, the final phase!
Today’s meals:
Breakfast: smoothie (the usual).
Lunch: steak chunks and corn.
Snack: did not have one.
Supper: the main course was chili, but the big deal was this: my first grain-type food in nearly a month! Of course, “normal” breads and pastas are not allowed in this diet. But the book does mention “Ezekiel-type” bread (see Ezekiel 4:9). While I couldn’t find a loaf of the bread, I found some pasta (which Mr. Rubin suggests to eat in small amounts) made by Food for Life that is made with the same ingredients (but not with the same cooking methods). So I had some “sprouted, whole grain” Penne noodles. They were actually pretty good to eat.
Drinks: tea sweetened with Stevia, water.
