Day 6 VLCD - Back in the 170s!

I did really well today (back on the injections) and didn't have a lot of cravings. The only time I wanted "something" was after work. It was pretty stressful at work and, like a pressure cooker, got worse and worse through the day. My coworkers (all of them) were in a funk and it just brought down the atmosphere. I thought, for an instant, "Boy, a glass of wine would be nice."

When I got home, I sent them both e-cards and tomorrow, I'm taking them little treats to cheer them up. I don't want another day like today (work wise). The good news is that I didn't give into wine temptation. We took our oldest to dance, went to a couple of stores, then came home for dinner.

Observations: Steak at lunch is very good and quite filling. I haven't had any for dinner yet. I just have this feeling that it would sit in my tummy all night long. I may try it this weekend, just to see what happens. Also, apples have quite a few carbs and that little bit of sugar seemed to make a difference in the amount of weight I lost. I've laid off of them for now. I'm sure I'll have to do my apples again later (if for nothing else then to break a stall).
