Day 12: 500 Calories

I try to keep my meals under 500 calories, and my snacks under 200 (I usually only eat 2 meals per day). Reading that, for some people (me), doesn't sound like much, but this is what 500 calories looks like:

That is three baked, skinless chicken legs, and a full package of Green Giant cheesy broccoli and rice. It totals 498 calories, and is super filling and delicious.

I don't really have anything else to say today, except that for the first time in our marriage (8.5 years), J is officially under 400 pounds. He's on day 10 of his juice fast, and seems to be doing really well, and hasn't had any of the weird overwhelming cravings for meat that I had (which is what ultimately made me break my fast). I'm super proud of him. And of myself.
