Ok so today is day 5 of phase 2, I have LOTS of weight to and I have had some problems with hunger this past week. Not everyday but I get up at 6:30 am and do not go to sleep until 11:30 pm. I beleive that has alot to do with me being so hungry, unfortunately my body is going to have to get used to it because I do not have a choice![]()
The other night (day 3 of p2) I started cooking my dinner and when I opened the fridge saw the spinich dip (that i made to eat before I started this and now the rest of my family enjoys) sitting in the fridge begging me to eat it! I closed the fridge in a hurry and went about cooking! 2 times I walked back to the fridge to look and ponder about that spinich dip. I even stepped on the scale 3 times to ensure myself I did not want it. I added up my total losses and tried to see if I could have a spoonful with a handful of tostito's and not hate myself! I decided to like Nike says "just do it" I got the dip out put a spoonful in a bowl grab a small bowl for the chips (thinking I didn't want the bag of them with me when I ate it), I heated my dip up, let me tell you it smelled so good!!!! Got my bowl out of the microwave took a chip and mixed the dip with it, a minute piece of chip broke which I ate quickly... then me and the dip had a moment. I stared that bowl of dip down while it sat patiently on the counter with the broken chip in it waiting for me to consume it. After about 5 minutes of debating (and salivating) I took the bowl and chips and went to my daughters room and practically begged her to eat it! (she complied)
By then my cod was done and I was no longer hungry, the cod however seemed to have to be forced down. I beleive its because I wanted the flavor of the dip not the fish but I survived. I can happily say I have as of today lost a total of 17.2 lbs. The cravings have not gone away and I am sure that I will have a stare down with numerous other food items throughout my journey I am just hoping that if I was able to win on day 3 I will continue to be victorious in the future! Wish me luck![]()
