Day 5

247.6 today
Figured out to give myself the shot in the leg- without even feeling it.  :)
When you hold the skin in like a pinch, you don't feel the needle even enter.

Ate a large Gala apple for morning snack.
Had leftover wild rice, oven baked carrots, and pork steak for lunch.  (Not allowed on the diet.... but I didn't want to waste this good meal)
skipped the afternoon snack- due to guilt.
Due tot the stress of pulling the kids out of swimming, my 3 year old son throwing a complete fit in public, and then being hit by a softball while driving and getting a dent in my van door- I went home and then
had mini chicken and cilantro dumplings for dinner- because I was making them for the kids, more than I was really hungry.

went to bed doing the math in my head.  This diet costs me $25 a day.  I don't have a summer job or income, so I need to be frugal and honest with myself.  Do I really want to loose weight and then keep it off for good?  If so- I need to make the EFFORT to stick to the diet food list.  I need to make the conscience decision to make better food choices, and see how far I can go on this diet.

I have 80 pounds to loose.
