Day two of our 12 habits in 21 days mission

Time for the second day summary. Same thing. We were not up early and we were on our smartphone pretty often.

But we started the day in a good way. With a green smoothie and tea. We used the same ingredients for the smoothie like day one (spinach, cucumber, orange and water) but we added a banana as well. Now it tasted like apple and not watermelon.

Wow that’s a bad picture. And it’s already tuned. But how in the world am we supposed to take a good picture in this darkness. Day and night. It never gets bright. Hello depresh.

Although some depressed poet might even find beauty in these millions shades of grey.

Aaaaauuuu! We feel like a she wolf when we look at these pics. By the way when we took them it was a day. And the small point in the sky is not the moon. It’s that hot ball we all go around called sun.WP_20141125_024

After this refreshing start in the grey morning we were craving something sweet and chocolate-y. So we decided to try the gluten free cottage cheese bean brownies we had made the day before. Hmmm yes, we've eaten better. Seriously. Those were not good. But since we didn’t have anything else with chocolate we had those with some tea.

For a hungry person on a diet they’re okay. But we're not giving a recipe for those. Not L’Oreal material aka not worth it. We had them as a snack after lunch again and froze the rest of them for more desperate hungry days.

3 hours afterwards guess what – hungry again. We mean that’s what annoys us so much with this small portions thing – we're hungry all the time and we feel like we're making a walk to the fridge every five minutes. On the bright side (so somewhere where the sun is shining) – we're not only eating less but thanks to the fridge walk, we also do some exercises. And plus we feel lighter and we don’t have stomach pains anymore, but seriously eating 6 small portions a day is one annoying habit. But we'll stop whining and we'll give it a chance. Like we gave these pizza bites made from millet a chance.

Those were surprisingly good and we had them with this salad – we love avocado and cucumber. But above all we love peppers. And olives. And rucola.

But wait!!! Not all, not all at all. Surprise surprise!

Cheese inside! Pizza without cheese is just like bean brownies WITH cottage cheese – NOT GOOD! So we used the one cheese that we had in our freezer – gorgonzola. We hid it inside the bites and then pretended we were surprised it was inside and clapped with our hands like a little kid. Okay we didn’t do that, but if someone else had made them or if we just had a short memory and we knew nothing about the cheese inside we would’ve totally been surprised and thankful and would’ve clapped.

And that was lunch. Then we had again some of the cheese brownie and dinner was same as lunch.

This makes 5 portions and we were ready with eating at 7 pm. Then we did some exercises – again one of Diane Berry’s videos – Clubland Work it Out. It was pretty exhausting and made us feel good about myself while watching 5 episodes of The Mindy Project in a row. Love that show. After How we Met Your Mother ended somehow we couldn’t find a good TV show to waste our life with. We were sad for a while. And then BAM! When we least expected it, we found Mindy and our life is full of excitement again.
