I feel pretty good, other than-

I am feeling pretty good other than having a constant headache since the first day I started on the Phen. I'm not worried about it at all, the same thing happened to me years ago when I took it. So I was pretty much expecting it to be the same way this time around and it looks like I was right.

It's a price I'm willing to pay as long as I am seeing results on the scales or in the way my clothes fit. Friday will be my 7th day on Phen and I'm hoping I'll be able to report a good number. I'm excited and I just want Friday to hurry up and get here.

It was absolutely gorgeous today here, it was 73 and sunny! Tomorrow however is supposed to be thunderstorms and 100% chance of rain.

I use to really like the rain, that is until I got two dogs. Not only do I have to walk them when it rains, but me and both of the dogs track in mud and leaves each time we come through the door, and I am constantly having to sweep and  then wipe the floors down with a towel. I just hate to hear that rain is coming because that means more work for me is coming as well.

I feel like I've done pretty good today, I took my MIL to her doctors' appointment and then took her home. I came home did all my laundry and cooked dinner for us all and then cleaned the kitchen. I've been more energetic since I started on the Phen. Tomorrow I plan on cleaning out my fridge and cleaning out my kitchen pantry. Those are two things that really need doing tomorrow. Then I'm going to shower and go to Wal-Mart and get a few items and then I'm coming home to fix dinner. Then in the evening hours I'm taking my MIL and SIL to see a friend and then taking them back home again and then I'll be back home. (Thank Goodness) I hate getting out in the rain, I'd rather stay at home tomorrow and clean house all day, but that's not really a choice- you gotta do what you gotta do. Like it or not.

I'm doing very good on not drinking any Diet Cokes this week, it's been three days and I've done excellent so far. I've wanted one but didn't drink one. I've been drinking about 100 oz. of water a day, it's a wonder I haven't got gills by now!

I'm watching my portions sizes really closely, I'm also watching what I am eating. It's kind of frustrating to have to think of something to cook every single day without getting burned out on it. I have looked online for recipes for MONTHS and all the stuff that sounds and looks good to me is either very expensive, or very complicated to cook. I just get tired of the foods we are eating.

I can't wait until Friday when I weigh! I'll keep ya posted! Until then-

Wishing you all the very best,

Sounds like

you are doing GREAT!  Keep it up, Tink.  Sorry about the headaches.  That's a bummer.

Keep up the water.  I swear by it!

Oh, and I know about walking the dog(s) in the rain.  I have a puppy, but I still do it.  If it's grass and it's rain, STAY OFF.  But if it's dirt or mud, hey let's jump in it, roll, you name it.  And my white carpets are really shot.  I've only had her about a month.  But I wanted her, I got her, and I love her.  Rain or not.

really like

your blog!

are headaches a side effect of the phen? i've never used it. lucky you having nice weather i'm sure that helps keep you motivated because you can't hide under a big coat and pretend 'you don't look that bad'

keep up the good work! hope your headaches go soon. 

Thanks

I work for a software company and I'm a Database Administrator.  I still have mixed feelings about working from home.  It's so much less stressful to leave work at work! 

Great job for staying away from the cokes!!  Sounds like your weigh in will be a good one!  Good Luck!

Have a great weekend.
