Day 1
Ugh. I feel really hungry and tired and I want sugar. I want sugar, or caffeine, or something. I will not cave in. These first few days are going to be really tough though. Actually, today will be the worst day. Tomorrow is Friday, which makes life that little bit easier. And I get to go for a lovely swim in a hydrotherapy pool, and sauna and steam room afterwards. But I'm kind of looking forward to doing a bit of running and puffing around later. I am starving, but I have a lovely dinner planned, so I have to keep going for another bit. I'm going to buy myself something nice in town as well, I'm probably going to Next and getting this class military jacket I saw in there during the week. I'm going to buy it in a size smaller, ridiculous I know, but it's a size I should be easily fitting into, and it's driving me crazy that I can't. So it's sort of a treat and a punishment at the same time. A bittersweet symphony, you might call it. But yeah, shopping, home, drink some juice, gym for around 40 minutes or so, then back home, cook my amazing dinner, defuzz for swimming on Friday, shower, and probably want to die from tiredness at that stage. All in a day's work.
In other news, I have another three hours of this hellhole to get through, which is not an easy task when you are feeling as toxic as I am. I can feel the toxins seeping out through my skin, and it's not pretty.
Song of the day: 'Bang on the Ear' by The Waterboys. I've been waiting to hear it all day, and it magically came on in my library on .
I think I'm gone a bit demented from lack of sugar. Sigh. This day will be the worst, and it will be easy from here on in. Plus I will be getting thinner, so that will push me on. Day 1 you don't feel like you're getting thinner, you just feel like you're dying. Gah.
 
Why are you starving. There is no need to starve yourself.

This is a lifelong change of lifestyle. It doesnt involve starving yourself at all if you do it right. It just means eating healthy food.

I eat more than I did when I was at my start weight - I just eat different things.
 
Day 2

Yesterday was tough, but I got through it. My skin actually looks great today, it's amazing. Or maybe it's all in my mind, but still. It's amazing how one day of eating and exercising right can help you.
I have my swim all planned for later, getting through the working day now will be tough. I made a strawberry, yoghurt and coriander smoothie this morning, but the strawberries were kind of going off, so I couldn't put that many in, and it's way too sour. But it's better than nothing. I had a poached egg, toast and a tomato for breakfast, it wasn't great to be honest. So today is pretty much a bust foodwise so far. Still, this is my first time attempting to cook in a while, so I guess it could be worse.
The new gym I joined is amazing. I forgot how much fun it is checking out all the men. There were some nice ones. There was a really heavy man in there that was also in the night before when I joined up. I don't know why, but I really hope I see him every time I go there. We can get skinny together.
My friend works with this guy who was kind of heavy and he got swine flu and lost a stone and a half in two weeks. I also got the flu, and lost about 3 pounds. Lucky bastard.
 
@Omega:

I'm not starving, but I've given my diet a complete overhaul, and that means suffering a bit for the first day or two. But I'm eating three healthy meals and snacks, so I don't know what else I can do. That post was written just before I went home for dinner, and I hadn't eaten for a good few hours, but that's just the nature of working unfortunately.
