ARGH!

Coming up with meals for the second week was extremely difficult. I just didn't feel like there was any options. Going through my cookbooks, I couldn't find any recipes that fit. I read online that the South Beach diet is very similar to the Weight Watchers core food plan. I looked into it a little bit more and the big difference is that on the South Beach diet you can eat whole grain breads too. So I had decided to try pizza with a whole grain crust and spaghetti with whole grain noodles. Anyways, even MORE frustrating was the fact that the Ramstein commissary doesn't have hardly ANY options. I couldn't find whole grain pizza crust or nonfat or even reduced fat cheese. What the Hell? By going on this diet, we are already eliminating 90% of all foods and drinks at the commissary, and then they don't even sell all of the 10% we can eat? This is the first real diet I've ever been on and I can see why people have such a hard time sticking to them. We were walking up and down whole aisles with nothing we can eat. I really REALLY want this to work too. And even with trying to eat better, we still haven't changed what we've been eating for lunches. I don't know where to go from here. Still trying to make it work. I guess I shouldn't expect change without a few bumps along the way...
