Is it working?

Oh god, my body ached so bad today! I swear I took like 5minutes taking off my shirt to go into the shower because whenever I moved my arms, shoulder or chest it hurt so bad! I didn't work out today, I couldn't. I know I just had to do lower body today but still I just really hurt and couldn't do it but tomorrow is a new day -- I might not do the lower body workout tomorrow right in the morning because I have to go downtown with my mom so we'll be be pretty much walking around I'll get in some exercise that way and also I'll try to do lower body in the evening.

My eating was great today even though at some points of the day I felt a little "starved" but I just drank some water or had a couple of baby carrots and felt a little better. I can't wait for grocery shopping on Saturday because then I'll at least have some more variety and feel like I have more options. I ended up with 1184 calories today. I know that's low but I was feeling really tired because of my muscles and just didn't want to get up to eat or walk or anything!

Sometimes it feels deadly looking in the fridge because I see all these yummy things and I know I can't eat them because of the loads of calories in them, so I just shut the door and either sit infront of the TV or computer. That's all I do all day, sad huh? I can't wait for school to start in September, it's only one class, but hey it's still school right? I'll be busy with that for a few hours a day.

I don't think mom realises I'm on a diet program that I made for myself. All she knows is that I've cut back on tea to only one cup a day. I guess it's better that she doesn't know. Everytime she knew I failed and it was disappointing to see her so disappointed in myself =/.

Holy shit am I gassy! It's all that brown rice...dude if this happens with just rice what will happen with cereal?

i'm sorry you hurt! that sucks...

But, i'm really happy for you that you ate well... that's great that you found a way to help curb your cravings... just remember not to toatally deprive yourself... yeah yeah yeah.. lecture over :) Hell, i ate one meal yesterday... so I can't even talk...

I know how you feel about the whole sitting in front of the TV or computer... that's all i've been doing too, because 1) i'm broke... 2) School hasn't started for me either...

So, we're in the same boat... but, i've found during these times is when, personally, I'm at my worst when it comes to snacking and mindless eating... so don't do the whole boredom eating thing! :)

Good luck today!! :)

I never wanted to tell anyone I was eating differently either. I guess I thought that saying I wanted to lose weight was admitting that I had weight to lose. But right now I've been eating low carb since February... the whole time my boyfriend and mom have been doing it also and I've found that having the extra support has been very helpful. You might just want to mention to your mom that you're trying not to eat much junk anymore and you'd appreciate it if she wouldn't bring it home and could she possibly pick up a few things for you at the store.

As for working out, it does get better with time. Keep it up! I'm sure you can do this.
