Okay, this is it. The challenge that separates the woman from the little girls. I will admit the thought of 28 days at 500 calories is daunting and I have done this three times before and have never made it all the way.
I can tell I'm mostly losing water right now since I've peed about 8 times today already, but this is just the beginning. I was surprised I did not feel very hungry today. The meager meals were actually satisfying enough. So far so good. The cracker is optional. It's supposed to be a melba toast but since I'm gluten intolerant I am substituting it for a Glutino table cracker, My initial plan was to opt-out but decided I needed a little more sustenance. My only mild slip-up was that the the steak had been marinated in barbecue sauce but it was nominal so I decided to go ahead because it was already prepared.
