I drank over 64 oz. of water that day, but i added a stevita strawberry flavored stick, and i think that helped me. Day 2 was my worst...the headache was horrible, but i got thru it with my handy dandy salt and water...LOTS of water. By day 3 I was still a little tired but much better, then day 4 I was AwSoMe!! My first weigh in is tomorrow so I am very excited!

Good Luck to you! I will watch for your posts :) maybe we can inspire each other! :carrot:

Sounds great!! I have a big day planned for tomorrow so I hope I don't feel too bad. :)

One of the girls said some other very hurtful things in regards to my marriage. I thought friends were supposed to be supportive! I know that one of the girls is jealous because she has recently put on weight. I am down because I feel I have lost my best friend... I didn't turn to food like I wanted to do so I guess I will focus on that.

They were never really your friends to begin with, They are jealous and insecure about themselves. You are a better person for doing what you are doing....YOU ARE DOING SOMETHING GOOD for YOU, that is all that matters. I Lost 2 who I thought were my best friends when I started this journey, they too talked bad about me and blah blah blah. But you know what? I am the one that is walking around HAPPY, full of pride and SMILING, while they are still grumpy, ******ng about everything and anything to complain about. You deserve friends who like and support you and not say hateful things to you:hug:

I'm so sorry you had to deal with that. People can really stink sometimes, they have no idea what goes on with an individual and how their judgemental attitudes can hurt. The important thing is that YOU know the truth - what other people think can only matter as much as you let it. You are strong enough to rise above ridiculous, thoughtless comments, and worth more than "friends" who think of you that way. And great job continuing to be in control and not letting food win :) You are doing fantastic and nobody can EVER diminish that or take it away from you!

I agree with Wuv & Scorbett...these people are not your true friends. If they were truly concerned about you & your diet, they would discuss it personally with you. I do know that when people drop weight too fast, true friends do worry. This isn't the case here..these people appear to be more jealous than anything. Focus on yourself & your family & true friends. BTW...EXCELLENT job of staying OP...you need to pat yourself on the back!!!

@Hgamroth...I agree with what the others have said. Just keep moving forward, and do it with a smile. You deserve better and kudos to you for staying OP and not letting your emotions control what goes in your mouth. :hug::hug::hug:

I understand your hurt Hgmroth. I went through the same thing just last week. But it's amazing how the phrase misery loves company holds true. You are taking contil of your life and you look GREAT! The people (who are not good friends) know they can't get to you through you weight, so now they will find other ways to make you feel bad or insecure. It's a difficult spot to be in, but just know that you have a support system here with us! And we are EXCITED for u and your progress!

I'm so sorry...weight loss (or gain) triggers all sorts of emotions not only for us but for the people around us. I'd like to believe that people say things to make themselves feel better and not really to hurt us. Those two women are insecure about their body images. Aren't we all? Hopefully, most of us can be more respectful of each other and at the very least keep unkind thoughts in our heads. They probably have always viewed you as their overweight friend and that somehow made them feel better about themselves. You're shrinking before their eyes, making them uncomfortable. You have changed a huge dynamic in your relationship with them. Saying unkind things about your marriage is unacceptable, of course. Again, unhappy jealous women .... a throw-back to the "mean girls" in high school? Good for you for staying OP. :hug::hug:
