Day Five

     We're running low on veggies but I think it will last us until payday. It's cool that I can make juice out of pretty much anything. There are a lot of yummy-looking recipes out there that I want to try but experimenting is really fun, too. I threw in a little of everything today and I'm getting used to the taste and can chug pretty much anything.

     I've noticed that I'm not hungry. I've confused my mental want for food with hunger. I wasn't hungry today and when I was, I juiced or drank water. I did all of the chores today and when Anton got home, we just talked about all the food we wanted to eat. We considered going to get a chesseburger to chew it up and then spit it out like a couple of birds. Everyone at Anton's work got burritos for lunch and he had to sit there and watch everyone eat their burritos. A co-worker even offered to buy him one but Anton resisted. That would have been a tough one to turn down but he did it! A good way to feel even more full is to put some fiber powder in the juice. I did this today and felt stuffed.

     I'm happy to announce that after our weigh in today, I am 145 pounds and still "normal" to the Wii Fit. I've lost 5 pounds in 5 days! I think I can do better in the coming days as I've been sneaking in the occasional pretzel here and there. Now that I'm seeing progress, it really makes me want to persevere. I haven't even been working out. I still want food but I wouldn't eat it even if it were in front of me. 

     I'm starting to feel good about this again. It's been a really rough week but the results are the proof. 

    Here's to being over the hump (hopefully)!
