I did OK. I decided to have a treat, and had a serving of Ben & Jerry's American Dream ice cream (a cup). That's something like 550 cals, but I kept the rest of my eating very light all day, and I did my 45 minutes on the bike, so I think I'm fine on keeping overall calories at weight losing levels.
FINAL RATINGS
--EFFECTIVENESS: C
Did it work for weight loss? I think this was pretty slow, but I think that's probably about the fact that I'm getting closer to my goal, and it's a sensible sort of diet.
--EASE OF USE: A
Was the food easy to obtain and prepare and take to work and adapt to the everyday? Nothing exotic, and I don't mind cooking a simple dinner in the evening, so no problem.
--ENERGY LEVELS: C
Were energy levels high, or did it make us feel weak or tired? I had some trouble with feeling a little light-headed yesterday. But it's hard to blame the diet. I mean, yesterday, I was out and about and didn't eat for hours when I shoulda had a snack. Also, my sleep has been funky the last few weeks. However, our first week of SUNSHINE actually had me peppier, for a few days. Heck, I don't know. I'm complex, man! How can I know how much my diet had to do with the ups and downs?
--HUNGER FULFILLMENT AND CRAVINGS: C
Were hunger levels and cravings reasonable, or terrible? I think my craving for a treat today was more about the fact that it's been six weeks since I had any kind of treat, than it was about this specific diet. But I got sooooo tired of the Peanut Butter, that I only stuck to that part for one week instead of two.
--OVERALL : C
How was it overall? I give it a C because of BORING.
Would I do it again? NO. I didn't realize how horribly bored I would get with it, and how fast.
NEXT UP!
We've decided on the Raw Foods Diet!
