Day 30 Apple 2, and 3

I was so excited to finish the apples I ate the last two apples at the same time. Before I say what the weight lose was I want to say this diet was a life changing 30 days. It changed so many things about my daily life.

1. Decreased the amount of food I eat.
2. Encouraged me to be healthy on daily basis.
3. Encouraged me to be healthy on a long term basis.

Over the course of this diet I lost 8.5 lbs, I also lost 2 inches off of my waist. None of my pants fit me any longer and I had to buy a new belt. This was a long 30 days and a lot harder than I thought it was going to be. It was one of the best things I have ever done in my life. I may have not lost the 10 lbs in the original challenge, but almost did and I lost size. It has also changed my life in a multitude of ways and can only thank the person who challenged me to this. Thanks OL!

Day 30 Apple 1

9:15 am

Day 30 Apple 1

I ate this apple as soon as I woke up. I am so excited for it to be the final day fo the apple diet. The last three apples will be Pink Lady apples, which as I have said many times are my favorite.

Day 29 Apples 2, and 3

Once again poor planning and a nap got the best of me as far as the apples are concerned. We planned on keeping Brooklyn up for the fireworks, but to do so she needed to take a nap at a time she normally does not. So as I laid down to put her to nap I happened to fall asleep as well and woke up just in time to see some fireworks. At that same time I realized I still had two of my last five apples to eat, so I decided to eat them at the same time.

Day 29 Apple 1

7:00 am

Day 29 Apple 1

Happy 4th of July, I was hoping today would be the last day but I did not realize until a few days ago I actually started on 6/5/10 and will end tomorrow not today. It was slightly disappointing, okay it was really disappointing. I am so tired of apples and completely ready to be done with this. I ate this apple as I was arriving at work today. I only have five more apples to eat but it is still a lot left.

Day 28 Apple 2, and 3

6:00 pm

Day 28 Apple 2, and 3

Some poor planning and a nap forced me to eat these two apples at the same time. I also did not feel like waiting till late in the night to eat the last one. So I decided to eat the last two apples of the day simultaneously as a dessert.

Day 28 Apple 1

8:30 am

Day 28 Apple 1

I ate this apple as soon as I woke up as my breakfast. If I eat the apple early enough in the morning I just do not feel like having anything else for breakfast. I usually will end up waiting till lunch to eat anything else.

Day 27 Apple 3

4:50 pm

Day 27 Apple 3

I ate this apple prior to eating my leftover's from lunch for dinner. We ate lunch at Jason's deli where I got a Ruben sandwich, it was delicious. This Pink Lady apple went really well with the sandwich. I only have three days left and it could not come soon enough.

Day 27 Apple 2

1:30 pm

Day 27 Apple 2

This Pink Lady apple was eaten shortly before arriving to work. I really only ate lunch and dinner today so this apple was eaten as a snack. Apples are an appetite suppressant and work very well as snacks to keep me from snacking on something unhealthy.

Day 27 Apple 1

10:15 am

Day 27 Apple 1

This apple was another Pink Lady and it was eaten on our way to Sam's Club to run some errands before work. I ate this apple while driving and again had the frustration of what to do with the apple core. I am very tempted to "recycle" it to the environment and throw it out the window in to the grassy area next to the road so an animal can eat it. I am not sure if it is considered littering or if it is acceptable to most people.

Day 26 Apples 1, 2, and 3

Day 26 Apples 1, 2, and 3

I have to apologize for the combined posting over the last several days. Also for the lack of posting over the last several days. These three apples were eaten periodically throughout day 26. The were all Pink Lady apples, as will the remainder of the days. After today I will only have nine more apples to eat, although it is still a lot of apples left I feel like.

Day 25 Apples 1, 2, and 3

Day 25 Apples 1,2 and 3

Once again sorry for the no posting times are busy now with a little baby girl. She is growing up faster than I can believe. She can now sit up right on her own without help. She will now be sitting in the shopping cart on her own when we go to buy apples. These were another bag of apples we bought from Aldi they were Gala's again.

Day 24 Apples 1, 2, and 3

Day 24 Apples 1,2, and 3

Sorry I have not posted in a few days I have been eating the apples just have not found time to post. These were various apples from various places. Not sure the order they were eaten in but I do know one was from QT and the other two were from Shell Gas Station.

Day 23 Apple 3

5:30 pm

Day 23 Apple 3

I ate this extremely juicy Shell gas station Granny Smith apple as a tart dessert. My hands were covered in sticky apple juice, in my opinion this was unusual for a Granny Smith apple. Much to my surprise, being a gas station apple, it was very crisp and delicious. It was one of the best Granny Smith apples I have ever had.

Day 23 Apple 2

10:30 am

Day 23 Apple 2

This apple was eaten just before my favorite Lean Cuisine TV dinner. Chicken enchilada suiza, which I ate today for lunch. It was the last of the Aldi apples, thankfully they were not very good any longer. I have decided when I start eating apples once a day after this is done I will eat them first thing in the morning. I enjoy eating apples for breakfast, it also wakes me up in the morning as I have said many times before.

Day 23 Apple 1

5:45 am

Day 23 Apple 1

I ate this apple on the way to work this morning. I brought the last two Aldi apples with me today. I think 10 apples is the largest amount of apples you should buy at one time, well when you are eating three a day. These apples could have coincidentally been eaten from best to worst, but they did get worse as I got closer to the end of them.

Day 22 Apple 3

4:55 pm

Day 22 Apple 3

This appetite suppressing apple was eaten just before dinner. It was an okay apple, again it was another Aldi Gala apple. I only have two more of them left so I will have to buy new apples tomorrow.

Day 22 Apple 2

10:30 am

Day 22 Apple 2

I ate this apple just before lunch today. The apple and a Mac & Cheese Lean Cuisine were all I ate and it filled me right up. This was another Aldi Gala apple, I think I only have two left. I am glad to report there are only 25 apples left to eat.

Day 22 Apple 1

5:45 am

Day 22 Apple 1

I ate this apple on the way to work and it was another Gala. I really enjoy the refreshing and awakening feeling an apple gives you. If I feel just a little tired or even really tired in the morning it just wakes me right up for my drive to work.

Day 21 Apple 3

6:30 pm

Day 21 Apple 3

I had this apple a few hours after dinner as a snack/dessert. It works well for this as I have stated in previous posts. It definitely fills me up and keeps me from wanting to snack again later on.

Day 21 Apple 2

4:15 pm

Day 21 Apple 2

I ate this apple just before dinner where I had a Santa Fe Style Rice and Beans by Lean Cuisine. It was a good dinner and with the apple it filled me up.
