Yah! I have officially lost 8lbs. Took me long enough, huh? (14 days) I almost quit the diet yesterday. I was just struggling and whined a lot to Cody and then I cried. I think this diet is the dumbest thing I've ever done, but it's working so I need to continue. I only have about 10-15 more days with the drops and then it's the maintence phase and I'll be able to have 1500 calories. I don't normally eat that many anyway so it'll be a nice change. I still won't be able to have bread which is half of my exisistance.

Anyway, I am back at it today with a grapefruit ready to be eaten and a new found hope.

On another note about food....

Have you guys watched Food Inc.? It is such a great documentary and eye opener. I love meat and my brother is a chicken farmer so it's hard to see some truths that this movie brings to light, but I think Michael Pollan really did a good job trying to give us options to the negative aspects of it. He was also on Oprah yesterday. (look it up, it was good) I'm not thinking of going vegan anytime soon, but I sure am a lot more conscience of the meat choices I make.
