That's how I feel about the third day of the vlcd. I'm feeling much better...well, losing over 4 lbs since yesterday made me feel pretty good, too. I got close to 400 calories and tried something new for my dinner; steamed cabbage (thanks, Susan). Oh! Why haven't I done this sooner! It was so tasty. In the past, I have adored cabbage but it's always nauseated me. I don't seem to have any issues right now, so I'll be making this a staple too.
For next week's steak, I purchased some more green onions and will be happy to add those back into the steak juice again. That was heavenly! Perhaps, now that it's spring and nearly summer, the crab legs will go on sale and I can have some more manna. I just love fresh crab meat (I'm not crazy about the pouched/canned).
Here's what I had today:
