Sat: 4/16 BINGE DAY!!!!

We started our day with BODPOD body fat testing out at the community college which required us not to eat or exercise for 2 hours prior so by the time we did we were STARVING! Went to my autie's house and had:
BF: 2 pieces organic bacon, 2 fried eggs, steamed chard, and gluten-free banana chocolate chip pancakes
Then we went to Tune Up and each had:
L: a turkey club with french fries
But we found we could only each eat half because our tummies had shrunk?...super lame...
In the afternoon I ate an apple and peanut butter and a few thin mint cookies from Whole Foods
while getting ready for our big BINGE DAY BBQ at which we had:
D: lamb and bison burgers (with buns!), greek salad, few bites of Connor's maple chicken, and home-made milk shakes for dessert. :)

All in all, I gotta say I was a little disappointed in myself. I had been hoping to really consume a serious amount of food but instead I found myself eat rather...moderately. COME ON Ranier! Next time I will plan it better and eat even more. :) After a few sips of milk shake I didn't feel that good so I stopped and we both went to bed bloated and 'ugh-'y feeling. Tim said this is a good thing (to make yourself a little sick on binge day) and it helps motivate you clean back up for the next week. Previous to BINGE DAY Will was down 6.4lbs and I was down 5 (and that's where Im staying! No more!) so gotta say, week one was pretty successful. Will is going to continue staying strict and I am going to loosen it up (I need more calories to breast feed than I was getting) but all in all I think it's very do-able. Especially for people who do well with extremes or have aggressive goals. I am/have neither so I will be adding in some fruit and occasional grains but I encourage all of you to try this, and when you do, send me your best recipes with BEANS!
GAAAaaame ON!

For your comedic enjoyment... Joey and Will get BODPOD-ed:
