The Good. The Bad. The PAIN!

The Good
I've lost almost 4lbs since I started on the plan. On weigh in day (Monday) I was down almost 2lbs, and being that I'm me, I've gotten on the scale every day since and seen a whole pound disappear every morning. I really should stop weighing myself every day, fat chance "/. My stomach seems to be shrinking, I feel full with a much smaller amount of food than I did before I started on the program and that makes me immensely happy.

The Bad
Honestly, I don't see anything bad yet, per se. Sure it can be time-consuming and troublesome at times to find the nutritional information for everything so I can log it, but it's for my benefit so that's not necessarily a bad thing. It's all about how you look at it. I'm on day 7 and still going strong, I thought I'd have caved in by day 3 to be honest. Pessimist at heart here.

The PAIN!
I needed a section for this, I have been getting an insane amount of migraines! I've suffered from them for years, and I started this new treatment that was helping but I have noticed that since I changed my diet my head is going nuts. I don't know if I'm eating enough calories since I don't track them, and I know it's possible to get caffeine withdrawal migraines so that could be part of the problem too. I hope once my body gets used to this new regime they'll ease up. In the meantime I'm trying to eat something every 2-3 hours to avoid a hunger migraine.

When did I get this old, sick and fat? I can't do anything about the aging part, but I sure as hell will fight the rest.

I can do it.
