R2 VLCD Day 31

Weight - 169.2

Finally after paying for my little cheats for 4 days I'm back to where I was on Saturday.  It took a couple of days for them to catch up to me on the scale and even longer for me to get rid of them.

Squeezed in a trip to Whole Foods in Seattle today.  Since I had asparagus last night which was a bit thicker on the ends than I like (too much goes to waste), I was searching for nice thin spears and found them.  Also snagges some nice looking shrimp that I'll probably cook tomorrow.

No trip to the University District in Seattle would be complete without a stop at Dick's Drive In.  Of course, I didn't eat any and got to smell it all the way home.  No worries though.  Thin is better than a burger and hand cut fries anyday.

My lunch today was scallops.  Not something I've eaten before but I had never eaten veal before this diet either and I love it now.  I wasn't majorly impressed with them though.
