The 17-Day Diet - Cycle Two - Day 11

Slowly but surely, a little more weight is gone. Honestly, this is the point where I want to give up -- weight isn't coming off as easy and it's less fun to step on the scale. I'm not giving up yet (but I kind of want to).

I'm a little afraid of Super Bowl Sunday. So far, the menu consists of pizza, chips, cheese dip and cocktails. However, I made myself some homemade hummus and have my air popcorn popper ready. I'll really try to stick to the healthier stuff. As bad as I just want to gorge myself on the fatty foods, I don't want to be mad at myself on Monday.

Do you have any favorite healthy snack foods?
