If you believe in what you are doing, then let nothing hold you up in your
work. Much of the best work of the world has been done against seeming
impossibilities.— Dale Carnegie
Today I resisted having eggs for breakfast for some unknown reason—it may have been because I didn't want to push my perfect egg luck—but had fruit and cereal instead. It turned out to be a good thing because a coworker and I went to lunch but it was so terribly cold that we had to duck into the first place we could, which was a diner. Of course, I knew I would be having eggs, but she asked if "there was anything you can eat here?" I said yes, then proceeded to hork down everything on the plate.
Breakfast
1 Cup All-Bran Buds (made with High Fructose Corn Syrup)
1 Cup Strawberries and Ass't blueberries Ruby didn't eat
3/4 Cup Fat free Milk
Snack
15 Almonds
1 Cheese Stick
1 Granny Smith Apple
30 Pistachios
3 Dried Apricots
Lunch
Broccoli and Cheese Omelet
Side of Linguica (Two sausages, I ate one)
Dinner
90% Sirloin Burger
Fried Onions
Banana Peppers
I think alot about the question I get most—"do you cheat?" I think the answer overall is no, even though I think I cheat when I eat something and forget to write it down (the other day I had a slice of deli meat in the supermarket and forgot to write it down—felt quite bad about that). I feel like to cheat is to cheat myself. I believe I have written that here in these pages. On other diets, when I have been dieting for someone else, the cheating was for ME. This time, the diet is for ME, so cheating wouldn't be for ME. That isn't to say that I haven't thought about what I would have on my birthday (probably Chinese food) or what I would eat if I wasn't on the diet, but I am. What's really amazing is how little I think about sweets or chocolate or bread. In fact, I noticed that for 71 days I haven't made pancakes, french toast or waffles for Ruby, which is probably a shame because she likes them but probably not a shame because she doesn't need them any more than I do.

I like reading about the broke-yolks. As a matter of fact, I can't think of the term "broke-yolks" without laughing disproportionately hard.
