Let the Work Begin!

Never thought I would say this...

Is it coming off too fast??? I'm down another pound today. I had to laugh at myself because the fact is, a week ago I was freaking out about not losing anything, and now I'm melting! The problem is, I feel lethargic, and I've awakened in the night two nights in a row now with a queasy feeling. I went and had blood drawn yesterday to see how my levels are, which is always important, but even more so at this point. I don't think my iron is an issue anymore because my ring finger is not black anyway, but I'm still having mild dizziness and some vertigo and I'm wondering, honestly, if I'm eating enough.

Today I'm going to do my best to eat all the meals. I mean, I've been missing about one, but I think I need to eat closer to when I go to bed. I'm going to do yogurt when I get up, well, as soon as I'm done typing this, then I'll have my bigger meal, my egg beaters, cheese and ham, around mid morning. I'll go from there. I'm also running into the problem of getting sick of eating the same things. I think I need to get some chicken breasts and grill them. This canned chicken is starting to taste like the tuna, which I can no longer stand. I just keep wanting some pasta with it! hehehe Not really, just to cut the flavor of tuna, or maybe a piece of bread, which I also cannot have. I'm going to do this the right way, darn it, but I feel weak and guess we'll just see what the blood test from yesterday shows.

In the meantime, who can be sad about being down 19 pounds? NOT ME! At this point I will hit my goal in a year for sure! Next summer is going to be very different than this one was...very different.
