Starting my Meds



I started my Phentermine today. Unfortunately, the day didn't as I wanted. I sort of tweaked for a while at first. My husband said that my eyes were totally dilated, but I never thought to go look for myself. See. Tweaked.

I can handle that part, and I know my body will adjust. For this to work, though, I have got to get back into the gym. That will be Wednesday. I can't go tomorrow because I have appointments both morning and evening that will keep me out, and that would mean taking both girls with me. I don't know about that.

I do know that I ate a little better today. Well, I ate less. I wasn't really hungry ever, but I did want to snack. I realized that was emotional, and tried to avoid it the best I could, even though I didn't succeed completely.

Tomorrow is another day, though, and I will certainly try again. After all, this is going to be a life long process of change for me. This is it. The real deal.

Sooo.........

So, I'm still here, and still fat.  It's a fact.  I've gained a lost probably 100 pounds or so since we last spoke.  Why, because that's what we do.  It is.  I wish is wasn't.

The Wagon

You see that wagon over there? Well that would be the wagon I fell off. It was a long hard fall, and it hurt. No. I suppose the fall itself felt pretty good. It meant I got to eat crap. It was the landing when I weighed this morning that hurt. So, I'm climbing back on the morning. I have a lot of ground to make up for that fall. Ick. Sometimes it is worth it, though.
