Day 5 & 6
Yesterday, Saturday, I awoke to another 2.2 loss!!! My appetite has started to adjust to the low calorie meals. The phentermine helped immensely. I am going to try to get through today without it though.
The weekends are especially tough as they are(were) my fun times of dining out and having beer and martinis. Today is the first day of Indy Car racing, there is a Formula One race and the premiere of Mad Men. This would normally constitute a day of fun food in my house. Oddly enough I am not missing junk food. When I think about my cravings I find I am craving just more of just the healthy stuff I am currently eating. I do, however, miss my Young's Chocolate Stout... Hell, I miss chocolate period. Adding in my 85% Lindt square during Phase 3 will be nice. Dark chocolate is just one of my most favorite things and it isn't bad for me which is a huge plus.
Today I awoke to a 1.4 pound loss. I know this number is great and I should be very happy about it but I was hoping to continue the 2 pound/day loss for a couple more days. I suppose that isn't realistic.
I tried coffee again yesterday... eh, not so much. I bought the Folgers Caramel Drizzle k-cups. It is better sans cream, sugar and foam than my regular dark coffees that I love to make my lattes with but it is still nothing to write home about. I am having more luck with the hot teas.
I don't think I am drinking the required amount of water but I am getting better. I didn't eat both of my allotted fruit portions for the day Friday or yesterday, so today I decided to have one of my fruits for breakfast.
Oh and yes, the evil grissini has been OFF the menu since day 1. The little bastards are still in the pantry alongside the peanut butter chanting an awful chorus... They must be silenced!!!
