This is day 8 of my plan. The dietician told me that I might get pretty tired the first couple of weeks. I haven't really felt anymore tired than usual, but tonight I am just exhausted. I haven't had a day off in over a week, so I think that might be something to do with it, as well. I have also been making exercise a priority and I worked at my part time job yesterday. My part time job is in a jewelry store, so I ran my butt off yesterday and then ran my butt off today at my regular job. My friends and I are getting up super early tomorrow to do an 8 mile bike ride, so that's good. I just feel bad right now for sitting here. It's so pretty outside and I promised myself that I would go to the park tonight but I just sit here. Ugh! I wish I could just muster up some energy.
Other than being tired today, things are going well. I'm down 6 pounds and feeling better already. I'm not retaining as much water, I'm waking up much more energetic and I can already see some difference in my clothes. I overcame a huge milestone yesterday when the people at my part time job ordered pizza. They didn't know I was dieting yet and I had to keep myself from eating it all day. It didn't help that it was my favorite kind, too. I did it though and I felt really good about myself for just ignoring it and sticking to plan. I was invited to go out to dinner tonight too and I really wanted to but didn't. I know I can do this. I get stronger each day and I can't wait to see the changes that losing weight will bring to my life. I want to be more active and do more stuff outdoors and be able to buy really cute clothes and not feel like a dumb ass. I can't wait!
