3-1/2 weeks out

Aug 15, 2010

Well, I've been in the first of I'm sure many dreaded stalls for the last 10 days now. I thank God that I have read on here enough in the last few months to know this is just an adjustment period and that the weight will move down again before I know it. I'm not going to weigh today cuz it is soooo annoying tho! Last week was my first full week back to work and I have been really tired. I felt super energized, strangely, when I was home for 2 weeks, but work has quickly sucked the life out of me. And, I suppose, a lot of it is just my body reacting to me "starving" it. I feel like I'm getting a chest cold and that is not helping either. I look like shit right now as far as my coloring. I've always been very fair complected and tend towards anemia. Now I just look more pale and a little sallow. Ugh! I suppose I could attempt makeup, but I've always found that to be a hassle. I'm not good at it and I have such sensitive skin that I spend all day scratching my eyes and face if I wear makeup.  I am taking all of my vitamins, my iron, and getting enough protein in per day finally, and drinking plenty of water. I've been walking a minimum of 1 mile a day but this past week have worked up to a mile and 3/4.

This  site is so awesome because by reading I know that hundreds of other people have been thru the same thing, the same feelings, the same problems and I know that this too will pass.

Hope everyone has an awesome Sunday!
