hello dear old friends.
haven't had much to say lately since my scale has gone up a pound since starting phase 2. a little disappointed and scared that this will not work for me the way it does for everyone else. i am SO constipated(sorry but i'm blunt) and uncomfortable and get so full of of what i'm supposed to be eating. i don't want to become dependant on mag citrate or laxatives to ease this issue. i almost want to throw in the towel all together or just go back to the comfortable mindlessness of phase 1. it is literally SO much easier with obviously better results. i'm thinking maybe i should have waited till goal to go to phase 2. i don't know. very down in the dumps and i just got true blood season 1, disc 1 in my mailbox today and am going to drown my sorrows in ridiculous cajun vampire shows. any words of wisdom would be great right about now. sorry to be such a debbie downer but tomorrow will be 3 months on this plan and i'm tired.
OH and on top of all that, my husband and i have decided to quit smoking. combined we spend about $400 a month in cancer. he wants a new truck and i want more years on the end of my life so we may just get what we want. i'm TERRIFIED of gaining the ominous 5-10 lbs that comes along with quitting normally.
found some hard candies sweetened with a sugar alcohol called "isomalt" anyone heard of this? nicorette gum and lozenges have sugar or aspartame and the patches give me CRAZY nightmares. i don't know what to do. woe is me.
yes, yes, pity party for erin tonight and her decisions to get unhealthy with eating too much and smoking and now she's sad because she's got to change her ways. kind of made me giggle because it's so ridiculous. i did this to myself.
