Day Six

Tuesday, January 13, 2009

Today, I called my husband and told him I was done and I wanted to fall off the wagon. He tends to go along with whatever I want. He reminded me that he never thought I needed a diet in the first place.

At lunch, I told my co-workers that I was going to fall off the wagon. I was so tired of being hungry. I've been hungry since Friday. I was on the verge of crying. The problem is not only that the diet disallows any carbs, but it also allows only such small portions of protein that it is impossible to ever feel satisfied. I needed my carbs. But my co-workers didn't let me quit. They suggested that instead of cheating by adding carbs to my diet, I should just eat as much protein as I need to feel full.

At lunch I ate taco meat with cheese, and I ate until I felt full. So now I feel better and I'm back on target.

Today's Weight: 126.2
Exercise: Few arm weights and climbed the stairs 10 floors

Still on the wagon...
