GM Diet – Day 5

Today’s menu consists of lean hamburger meat and tomatoes. I was actually looking forward to today until I tasted the tomatoes. You see, in the mid-Atlantic during winter, tomatoes are not exactly fresh. It’s not been as noticable until now because they’ve been buried in either soup or salad. But today I have to eat six winter tomatoes. I am having a hard time with this. I’m in the office and cannot do much about it here, but it is so bad that I am thinking of pureeing them when I get home and drinking them down just to say I’ve eaten them.

The other thing I’ve noticed is that hamburgers are only as good as the condiments that go on them. I cannot have salt, oil or sugar so I cannot have mustard, ketchup, mayo — even pickles are out. I am eating my lonely hamburger with a few natural herbs tossed into it. No bun. No glory at all. This sucks.

Not mention I have to increase my water intake from 10 glasses to at least 12 so that I can get rid of the extra acid the tomatoes are putting into me. I feel like hell. I am lightheaded today, cranky and just want this horrible diet to end. Two more days to go. Pounds lost today = 2.5!
