Feeling a little grumpier

That sounds really good what you eating and everything. I heard a trainer say once that losing weight was 80% diet and the rest exercising. I'm sure you will reach your goal it sounds like you have been doing really good.
I just weighed myself and I've lost 6 lbs in 2 weeks so I am pretty happy with that so far hope it continues.

Good luck to you!!!

That's great Dezi. Are you using a set diet plan? I've been losing about 2 to 2.5 pounds per week. I don't have a set diet, I just choose what I'm going to eat and make sure that it fits in nutrionally with the rest of my day. I figure that way I don't have to deprive myself of anything I want. I can now eat some pizza without feeling the need to eat the whole thing!! There's a little place down the road that always has personal size ones ready. Also, ice cream is an issue for me and I can't stand those soy substitutes or the rice cream so I bought those little single serve cups. Its's easier for me. How do you control those things?

Have you tried any of the light or weight watchers ice creams? Klondike has light klondike bars that are I think are less than 200 calories. I only know that they are 3 points on the weight watchers point system. They are really good. Eskimo has some light ice cream cones with cookie crumbs on top, those are good too. Skinny cow is really good. They are ice cream sandwhices. My favorite is the peanut butter and chocolate and the strawberry shortcake. I don't know the calories but they are 2 points from weight watchers. I hope this helps.

I'll check those out. Now, tell me what to do about donuts!!! :eek:

What kind of doughnuts were you talking about? I can look up a brand in my calorie book. I don't eat too many doughnuts so I really don't know what to recomend. It has krispy kreme and dunkin doughnuts listed in there.

I really like the sour cream donuts. Do they have a listing for them?

There's a doughnut from krispy kreme is a glazed sour cream it's 340 calories, 18g of fat, and 42g of carbs. That was the only sour cream doughnut that I found in the book. Go to calorieking.com it has more food listings and they up date the website with new food listings each month.

I am usually the sweetest, most patient thing in the land...and I do my housework regularly, tend to my kids, cook, laundry,etc, I do these things like clockwork. But, today is only day 2, yesterday when I took Phentermine for the first time, I was a mad woman, I cleaned the whole house, but not like usual...I was cleaning stuff that had no purpose :shock: , I was on edge and irritated that my husband was on the couch relaxing, the kids would call for me...and it was like an interruption and my response was YEEESS...WHAATT IS IT? I was very conscious of this though, I took frequent breaks to the closet or bathroom and just took a deep breath, did some self talk and just kinda said ok, get a grip, you have way too much energy right now sista! So, I just have to make more of an effort to remind myself that this pill is making me a little more high strung than my usual self and focus on control. Man, but the energy is so awesome! I love it. I was VERY nervouse about starting Phentermine, but today, I couldn't wait to take my pill and start my day! IT JUST TAKES GETTTING A GRIB, try those lock yourself in the bathroom breaks...cold water on the face...deep breath, smile....IT WORKS!
