No picture or post yesterday

I did not do a picture or post yesterday because I had a severe migraine. I can only assume that it was because my body is detoxing from the sugars and fats. Today, I feel much better although exhausted and my head feels bruised from the head pain. But today is a better day.

Waited too long

I waited too long this evening to eat. Not a good idea when I'm the one that has to make food for everyone and I'm making one of the foods I love. I need to keep telling myself, "It is worth it! It is worth it!!!"

Down another 2lbs!!

I'm hungrier this evening. I even cheated and ate a cheese stick. Since it didn't satisfy, I went back to my protein bar.

Day 3

I've stayed full most of today, but what's better is I've lost 5 lbs in 4 days. (Heck yes I'm counting the scope day!) I am drinking a protein kook-aid drink before bed. My tummy is rumbling a bit and again I've stayed up too late.

End of day 2 Medifast

I really need to start a regular eating schedule. I am not hungry by the time the next meal rolls around. (Which is great so I don't feel hungry all the time!) However, since I'm not hungry, I put it off until I start getting s headache, light headed, and tummy grumbling. The dietician warned us about this for after surgery, so I need to get on a schedule now so I can safely lose weight.

First day on Medifast

I kind of started on a bad note since I had to take my daughter to a doctors appointment and we didn't get home until after lunch time so I didn't have breakfast. Lunch a snack then dinner and a snack it kept me full for a while because of the protein, but because I still have trouble with sleeping (stay up too late), I ended up being hungry as I was laying in my bed to go to sleep at 2 o'clock in the morning. That might not of been the case if I would've gone to bed at a decent hour. Overall the food tasted good I would definitely suggest using broth in place of water, which was approved by the dietitian. It just gives the food a more rich gratifying flavor. Moving forward I will plan to go to bed earlier even if I have to take a melatonin or an Ambien.

The last day...

Today, will be the last day (at least for a while) for many things. For example: no more Coke for at least 4 months (the carbonation and caffeine) as well as the sausage biscuit I am about to consume.
