day 9

thanks to larry's "sales-pitch" about the need to eat carbs, i quite easily caved in tonight and actually ate a whole sweet potato .... serious carb-bomb, but ooooh mama! ... was that the best sweet potato i've ever had!! ... (ok, really, there was no pitch, just cut me some slack alright?) ... i just couldn't stand the "0 carb" diet any longer ... for the past 2 days, sitting at my desk staring at the fruit is driving me crazy ...

anyway, here's today's intake
