Day 3: The secret diet food

So I have come to the conclusion today that I HATE diet food. Duh. Shocker, I know! Then again, I would like to find someone who actually ENJOYS being on a diet. Anyone? Anyone? Bueller? Bueller? I didn't think so. I decided that the least painful path for me would be to count calories. I have actually done this before and was pretty successful. The trouble is starting. And sticking to it. And actually calculating every single morsel I eat. (thank you iPhone apps!)  But have I mentioned that I hate diet food? I mean really... how many rice cakes and cups of water can one human being be expected to consume on a daily basis!? This brings me to my point. (I know! So soon!? It just isn't like me!) but here it is: I LOVE SECRET DIET FOOD. Let me give you an example (and keep in mind I am counting calories. Dinner at Qdoba on a regular non diet week- naked burrito bowl, plain rice, lettuce, cheese, sour cream, and a few crispies. Dinner tonight while counting calories: naked burrito bowl, plain rice, lettuce, cheese, sour cream, and a few crispies. YES! Thank you secret diet food. Now, before you begin to lecture me about how unhealthy everything I ate was, let me remind you, I am counting calories. And tonight's dinner, 635! And I'm SO full. Now my mission is to find the calorie count for other "regular" day meals, so I dont feel so "diety" everyday. We'll see!
3 days down...177 to go!
