Day three

I have never felt so hungry. The 800 calories has been tough. And it seems like I notice EVERY McDonald's, Burger King, Taco Bell, pizza place, etc. that I drive past, even though I know they've been there all along. Now it seems like they're leaping into the middle of the road and jumping on the hood of my car. After three days, I definately know where my weakness is....carbs, carbs, carbs. I want bread, chips, potatoes, pasta, sugar, brownies, cookies, did I mention bread? 30 days of no carbs is gonna be tough. I just keep thinking "30 days at a time" and eventually I'll at least be able to take a bite of a cupcake. Oh, and moderation is not something I'm good at either. After I get home from work I find myself hiding in the bedroom watching tv, or downstairs on the laptop/watching tv, anywhere but upstairs where the kitchen is within my line of sight.
On the upside, though, I feel like I've lost some weight and I don't feel bloated or swollen. My clothes are already fitting differently and the program has been easy to follow so far. I have to admit that I can see I'm gonna get tired of grilled chicken and strawberries, etc. I long for pizza!! :)

When you're really hungry, your body always wants carbs, right? Quickest form of energy. (And, OK, yummiest!) But think about how cool it'll be when you get through this and your body is reconditioned to want proteins and veggies, instead! Hang in there, Chickie!
