Dukan Diet Day 2: Attack Phase

Intake:

Brunch:

More steak from loice's party, 3 egg whites, 1 cup plain greek yogurt with splenda and cinnamon

2 cups tea

Snack:
1.5 tbs Oat bran

Snack:
1 Eating Right Vanilla nonfat yogurt

Before workout:
1 chicken breast with nonfat cream cheese

After workout:
1 chicken breast with curry powder and nonfat cream cheese (again.. haha)

1 plain greek yogurt with splenda and cinnamon


The diet allows fat-free cream cheese, which I thought was surprising at first, but after looking at the nutrition facts, it's pretty healthy! 0% fat, hardly any carbs, high in Ca+, 4g protein per serving, only negative is that it has some sodium. But I really do enjoy the taste! It adds a nice spread to my lean proteins, mixing it with a little curry powder and a little lemon juice was really great today with lotta flavor.

I'm also finding that I don't really get that hungry lately. After I eat my meals, the full feeling lasts a long time and I can't stop fairly easily even though I can technically eat these foods without restriction  :). Even though I'm really limited to what I can eat right now, it's helpful to know that after I lose the weight, I will be able to eat more like a normal person and have my weight still stable. Even though I have to decline eating out with a lot of people, I'm determined to stick with this.

Exercise:

I know the diet says to avoid hard physical exercise in this beginning stage especially the first 2 days and just to walk 20 min for now, but exercise is so part of me. I just won't go too hard.
Before going to work:

20 min Active sculpting workout
After work:
62 minutes on the treadmill. Mostly at speed 3.0 and varying incline walking from 5.0-15.0 and speed walking intervals at mostly 3.0 incline and speed 3-5-4.5. ~3.5miles, 445 cals.

I took it easier today, but I actually wasn't that tired today like I expected to be :-)
However, since I've been drinking a lot more water, I've been needing to pee so often!
