Are we there yet???

I've been dieting for 12 days. Every hour has been a challenge. I'm hungry. I want chocolate milk. I feel like all this work should have resulted in at least 20lbs lost. Ha. Although I do have to say my clothes feel a little roomier. I just hate the waiting. At this pace it will be another 2 weeks before I'm down ten pounds.

Ugh.

I think this is why my diets usually only last a few weeks. I always feel like my effort should have better results. I know - not very realistic. But I literally spend HOURS each day calculating my food, preparing meals, looking up recipes..... and starving. 12 days and my stomach still wants more food. I went into the forbidden filing cabinet at work today and got two 3musketeers. You know why? Because they had CUPCAKES. And I couldn't have one. Well, at least not without losing a bunch of my points. So I got the next best thing so I wouldn't feel deprived.

When I lose twenty pounds, I'm going to celebrate by eating a cupcake. A chocolate one.

I'm sure I come across as a food addict. Not at all, really. I don't love food. I usually don't eat all that much. It's just that the food I do like to eat tends to be really really fattening and bad. And now I'm on a diet where I can't really eat the foods that I like and I'm eating stuff I wouldn't normally eat and all I want is to eat something that tastes good and God, dieting sucks. I wish i could just be normal and like vegetables and meat like everyone else. Chicken/veggie stir fry? Don't mind if I do.

I think I'm done whining now. If you're still reading this, I commend you.
