PHASE 3 – DAY 4

IN-N-OUT BURGER

I have been trying for months to get Lanny to go to IN-N-OUT Burger. No dice. He just wouldn’t try it. He would go to 5 Guys, or Burger King, but not IN-N-OUT. Well, last night was Roundtable, we had a house full of people and he was hungry. I picked him up on my way home from work and took him to get a burger. We can’t eat the bun, so we had it prepared ‘Protein Style’ which wraps the meat in lettuce. We added tomato and onions and sauce [because we can have fats this week as long as they are not eaten with starches].


He loved it! He loved it so much he sent me back to get more so he could have another one after Roundtable. Of course he can’t make this a habit, but it’s nice to know he can grab some fast food if he gets caught needing something quick and cheap. [It was only $5.68 for both of us] AND - - I was down a little over ½ a pound today. That was nice, too!


Sonny Boy started Phase 2 today. He emailed to say that eating everything in sight is not all it’s cracked up to be. Trust me, I remember my first day. YUK. I just couldn’t do it for two days in a row. Eating junk food that I had been avoiding for months really did a number on me. I think Sonny Boy is finding out the same thing.
