Before After

Day 3

Ok so today is the third day that I have been taking phen and the effects have been pretty immediate. I am not hungry at all but am still eating breakfast, lunch, and dinner but smaller and healthier things. I love not being so controlled by food, although I still have these notions like I should be eating now or something. It's also been hard on my boyfriend and sister since I have no desire whatsoever to cook dinner. This is going to be a challenge for me! I also feel kind of loopy or tired when I take phen. It's weird and really hard to describe but I am learning how to handle it.

Yesterday, I had my linear algebra final which was my last final for the spring. Can't believe that I only have one more semester left til I graduate. I also spoke with the PhD student who is running my internship for the summer and she gave me some research to do over the break which should be fun.

Today, I bathed all three dogs as well as cleaned the house. My dad is coming into town in two weeks so I thought it would be better to do it now rather than later. My sister Jen also got her graduation robe and tassel today and she was really excited about everything except the color, blue. It's amazing how much she has changed in the last couple of years and I know I am going to start crying when I see her graduate from high school in two weeks.

Also, I have been really ansy about exercising the last couple of days. I don't have a gym membership but can work out for free at school but during finals everything is closed, which sucks. Thinking about calling a friend and playing tennis if his exams are finished. Hopefully, I can burn some calories doing all this cleaning and housework.

I noticed that so far 19 people have looked at my blog but no one has become friends or commented. I really want this website to be like a community to me since I am not in any support programs like JC or weightwatchers. Plus I would love some imput about what I am doing especially if it will help me lose more weight. :)

Bye for now!
