Day 1 of VLCD (very low calorie diet)

Today was the first day of the very low calorie diet (500 calories) and it went pretty well.  I bought new storage bowls so I can get some food together premade for faster meals and on the go and a new chopper.  Pulled down the George Forman Grill for fast easy cooking.  I took the advice from others on the forum of using foil on the grill for easy cleanup & it worked great.

Also bought a meat grinder to make some ground beef and chicken.  We watched a documentary on organic foods and processing plants.  We're gonna try to slowly move over to organic.  I bought some great organic shampoo, conditioner & soap from Walmart called Giovanni I think.

Anyway, had no hunger issues today at all and energy level is good so far.  I take a 5000mcg B12 pill each morning.  I had strawberries for breakfast, lean sirloin tips and tomato for lunch and shrimp and lettuce with a bit of Waldrons dressing for dinner.  Orange and half of an apple for snacks.  Unfortunately I only got 1/2 of my water in.  Will try harder tomorrow!
