Dear FF Diary,
I took the Meridia on Saturday and I was stunned at the effects.
It REALLY does take your
hunger away.
So much, that I didn't know when to eat. I had to plan my food, I mean, I had to TELL MYSELF TO EAT... otherwise, I wouldn't know.
Damn, talk about appetite suppressant. The stuff works.
I didn't take it on Sunday. I was weirded out by the effects.
But I did take it this morning and we shall see what happens today. I'll report back.
But yeah, interesting.
And this morning? I'm still 197.5!
I know it seems ridiculous, but it's amazing to know that it wasn't just a one day thing.
I think I've gotten so used to seeing the scale go up that it's scary/crazy to see it go down... and stay down.
I do hope it's not just water weight or anything like that. I tend to drink tons of water, so I know that the effect of drinking water on a
diet won't be had on me. I don't even drink sugary sodas. And if I drink juice, I usually pour water in it -- 1/2 water 1/2 juice -- because it's too sweet for my taste buds.
We shall see.
Deer (boyfriend) told me to give Meridia a week. That way I could say that I tried it, and if I didn't like it, I could go back to the doctor and tell him that I'll lose the weight on my own, thanks.
As it stands, I do recognize, understand, how much of this is just math --
calories in,
calories out.
I may have made some commitments tonight which may, depending on the time, conflict with my
gym. But my
goal is to head to a
Pilates class tonight, and start working out.
I thought I would get a chance this weekend, but I was busy, busy, busy.
It's okay. I think I have a support system now in place. Even my friends are now commenting on how healthy I should be eating -- when I don't!
Yay.
