End of week 1 - Deja Vu All Over Again

I was reading back through my previous posts and I realized how short my memory is when it comes to my own personal suffering. Today, I thought that this round of HCG is harder than any of my previous rounds. Going back through my blog and reading my posts, I realize that this round is just as hard as all the other rounds. The difference is my willingness to throw in the towel. I get to a point where I think, "Well, at least I'm not as fat as I was before. This is good enough." But it's not good enough, it's not, "AWESOME!" It's "Meh.

Reading my old posts helped reassure me that I do have this in me and I will continue.

10 lbs down at the end of week 1.

Came over here from your comment on our blog (Things I Thought).

I had a doctor recently tell me to journal, but never read it again. I almost sputtered. Great example of why re-reading old thoughts is helpful.

Thanks so much for visiting my blog. I love Things I Thought. It makes me literally laugh out loud, not just sit in front of my computer stoically and type LOL.

Anyway, writing it down does help me stick to it but at the same time, the very low calorie portion of the diet makes me a bitter and miserable person to be around.
