Well, its day four and I'm feeling great. The empty feeling I've been getting has started to get less and less. No milk, bread etc is going well and I'm feeling happy on the low calorie intake I'm on. I'm on about 1800 calories per day at the moment and drinking water/eating fruit if I feel hungry between meals.
Even though I should have left it a full week, I did another weigh in this morning. The scales say I'm down to 375.4, which is fantastic as it's already 3.2lbs down.
So, at the moment things are going really well, I'm not craving anything and already starting to feel better in myself. Now that could just be psychological, but I don't care :o) as feeling good like this is helping with the motivation.
I must say that I don't think I've ever felt so motivated to deal with my weight as I do now. Some of this could be down to the realization that its not just about the outside but the inside of your body too. I had some blood tests recently which showed some elevated readings which are normally associated with drinking....hick!!....but I don't actually drink....anyway, I've been for some more tests and whilst the final results are not back, it could be that I have what they call a "fatty liver". This makes the liver inflamed and can raise the readings I have had.
Hearing those words "FATTY LIVER" really did hit home and made me realise that it really isn't just about how you look, its the damage your doing on the inside. My cholesterol was ok, but I need to the loose the weight even more now because of this possible "fatty liver".
So, all in all I have some good motivation to keep this new lifestyle going and achieve my goals.
Well, that's it for another post. Catch you later.
BJ
