Thoughts on the day:
I did not sleep well last night. I tossed and turned because I was hungry. Yesterday was extremely difficult and I'm beginning to wonder if I'm really going to be able to go another week with no food. I really wish there was something on this diet that was a substance. I feel like I'm just drinking everything and I never feel full. Its awful and painful and depressing. I'm feeling really bad about the whole diet today and feel extremely discouraged. I did okay for most of the day. I was extremely busy and tried to keep my mind off of food. I had hungry pains most of the day. I tried to drink my protein shakes, however they didn't help at all. I drank all my water which was good but I was still so hungry. I made a choice to have some salmon. I know it was not part of the diet and I feel guilty. I also feel much, much better. I have been very moody and short with my children today. I even took one of my anxiety pills today, which I have not needed in over a month. I feel like I made a wise choice in my food selection although it was off the diet. I want to talk to the dietitian about how I'm feeling over the diet.

Thoughts on the day:
Today was a rough day. I had a lot to do today and I was hungry all day long. No matter what I ate today I was still hungry. It was very difficult. I didn’t get my typical exercise today but I was very active. I started packing for my trip and had to move a lot of boxes and heavy stuff. I was exhausted at the end of the day and went to bed very hungry. It was not a good day for me.

First off... I know I'm totally behind. I'm going to recap my days and then post about what it going on now.

Thoughts on the day:
After breakfast I took my kids for a walk and then to the to the park I walked, ran, and played for nearly two hours. I began to feel sick and almost threw up twice. When I got home I cheated a little on the diet because I was feeling weak. I ate a small tin of tuna. I know that I probably felt this way because I ate so little yesterday. I will make more of an effort to meet the caloric guidelines to avoid this again.
