I've reached the half-way point!

Breakfast was good but very filling. I didn't want to waste any berries by using only part of the containers so I used them all. It turned out good but was too much to drink all for breakfast.

I have to admit that my stomach was a little unsettled today and I didn't really feel like eating much. Breakfast filled me up so much that I wasn't hungry again until after lunchtime when I had my juice.

I brought a big salad for lunch instead because I didn't make the zucchini/tomato thing the night before but I didn't eat it while at work. I brought it back home and ate it for dinner. I was supposed to eat the salad with the mustard vinaigrette that I made a few days ago but I think I must have used old oil or something because it doesn't taste good. Instead I made up some Italian dressing (from the packet) and used that. I guess that could be considered a cheat but I'm not thinking of it like that. I'm choosing to think of it as inventive. :)

I was proud of myself today because I went with my sister to a midnight showing of The Hunger Games. Usually I would use that as an excuse to drink gallons of Dr. Pepper and consume tons of popcorn and candy but I wasn't really tempted to go off of the plan. Other than the popcorn smelling like heaven to me, I was fine with not eating anything.
