Rough Day!!

Good news, I lost 3 of the 7 pounds I gained in one day - Medifast is a miracle!!! The bad news, today was a really tough day. Don't worry, I stayed on plan, but it was a battle all day long.

I had MAP testing today with my kids - which we all hate. I bribed them with McDonalds to get a couple more hours of testing out of them. I am a McDonalds junkie - it is definately my drug of choice. I fought with myself all the way to McDonalds and even as I was sitting in the drive thru ordering the double cheeseburgers - my favorite!!! It wasn't until I had paid and left the parking lot did I feel I was out of the danger zone. Why do I want to eat that poisen???

Once home from work, the headache started and intense hunger. I had a snack of romaine lettuce leaf with deli roast beef and it got me to dinner of a grilled chicken kabob. Detox is hell. I still have a headache, I am seeing strange spots and I feel horrible. Oh well, tomorrow is another day.

For any of you who are just starting out on the plan, don't worry, it doesn't last long, just a few days - but wow, it takes a lot to get through those first few days. I have done this enough times to know that it is worth sticking with it - no turning back. One more day and I will be out of the woods.
