Also, just wanted to note, I started this program just before travelling home from Christmas at my parents' house. I stopped at a restaurant with a salad bar, got veggie soup, salade and a plain baked potato on the side. They had fruit on the salad bar too, so I could have had that for dessert, but I didn't have any room left in the tum.
