Get rid of the avocado. They have way too many carbs and they are not that good. I think they are horrible.

I think I did pretty well for my first day today.
For breakfast I had 3 poached eggs, 3 slices of bacon, 1/2 of an avocado and a 16 oz glass of unsweetened ice tea. I always drink my ice tea unsweetened, so I probably won't continue to use the word unsweetened when posting about the ice tea I drink.
For a snack I had 6 oz of ham.
For lunch I had 1 cup of iceberg lettuce, 1 hard-boiled egg, 3 oz of canned tuna, 1/2 of an avocado, 2 tablespoons of Italian dressing (no sugar). I had 16 oz of water with my lunch.
For supper I had 1 cup of iceberg lettuce, 1/2 cup of raw cauliflower, 1 hard-boiled egg, 1 1/2 tablespoons of Italian dressing (no sugar) and a 16 oz glass of ice tea.
I also drank my 2 quarts of water and I feel great. I actually felt full after each of my meals and that somewhat surprised me. But, I feel that I accomplished a great deal today by starting the diet. I had made sure that I had plenty of the foods that I would need beforehand so that it made it easier. But I will tell you people that I have never had to pee so darn much in my life. My husband and I also went for a walk and we walked for about 1 3/4 miles. I know it isn't very much but it is a start. Right?

They aren't high-carb -- they ARE high-calorie, however. I think they're GREAT, but I've decided to stop buying them until spring -- too many of the ones I've bought lately are browning inside in a way that makes me think they are rotting from the inside out. I liken it to the way strawberries just aren't that good as you start getting into fall.
