Okay so I started officially on 9-16-05. Long story short I didn't ate hardly anything all day, had a few glasses of wine that night and was very sick for it. The next day I felt like total crap and did not atke a pill. On Sunday I took one and felt a lot of the side effects. The whole list it seemed. I had no appetite and again didn't eat much of anything. On Monday I did not take a pill, deciding to do it every other day. I still had very little appetite and was restless and couln't sleep. On Tuesday I took the pill and felt all yucky again but not as bad as before. I had the severe mood changes, loopiness, tired and restless, all that. Towards the evening I felt better and last night I got more sleep than usual. Today was no phen day. I woke feeling great. I worked out before work and weighed myself and my scale said I LOST 5 pounds. Overnight? I couldn't believe it! I kept hopping off then back on. That made me feel awesome and scared at the same time. I don't have a very big goal and I'm scared of losing too much too fast and just gaining it all back. As a treat for myself I decided to get a better scale. A digital one that tracks your loss towards your goal. Well I set it up and was a little disappointed to see a higher number than I did on my cheapie scale this morning. Now I am confused.


I guess should add my goals here.

I started off at 145. I am 5ft tall and my ideal, according to my doc is around 108. My goal is 105 so I needed to lose 40 pounds. I lost some on my own before phen and was stuck and then gaining it all back. I was hovering between 138 and 142 when I began to consider taking it. I lost about 6 pounds on my own before phen and was at about 136 I think when I started. After a couple of days I was down to 131 or 2. (can't read the cheapie scale). My cheapie scale lied this morning and said I was 125. I flipped out. But my new scale says I am 129.8 and that is the scale I am going by now. I am happy with the progress. I need to get one of those cool ticker things everyone has.


I really want to stress again how helpful this site has been. Everyone on here is awesome and supportive and motivating. I didn't put off working out today because I wanted some good news to report to evreyone. I definitely
do well when I am being held accountable so this is great for me. I only have like 25 pounds to go. Yay.
