Breakfast with the governor, cheesecake and a gross green drink

Day one of the maker's diet wasn't terrible - it wasn't my best day every, but it wasn't the worst.

My morning started off with breakfast with the governor - ok so technically I was at a Chamber breakfast where Gov. Deal with the keynote speaker and there was about 300 folks there, but my breakfast did involve the governor. I ate two scrambled eggs at home before I went to the Chamber breakfast cause I didn't know what they might have at the breakfast. I ended up just moving the food around on my plate so it looked like I ate something, but I didn't really eat during my breakfast with the governor.

Lunch was the biggest test so far - I had a lunch meeting at the Marietta Conference Center to plan our annual Heart in Hand volunteer luncheon. The Conference Center has ok food - but excellent desserts. It took every ounce of will power for me to not grab a slice of cheesecake from the buffet during my meeting. But I prevailed - and patted myself on the back :0)

I will say the worst part of today was trying to drink the gross green drink that they suggest in the Maker's Diet. It's called the Perfect Food and it's a powder, green substance you are suppose to mix with water. Horrible idea!!! The drink smells like the underside of a lawn mower and it taste even worse than that description. I could only stomach about three sips of it this morning before my gag reflex kicked in and said no more! I found some other things to mix it with that are suppose to taste a little better. I'll keep you update.

Day one down, 13 more days of phase one. I'm counting the positives. We'll see how this goes.
