Day 4 on Program

Today was my first day at work while on the low-cal diet.  I was concerned I would be hungry, but that really didn't happen.  The Slenderiix and Xceler8 are really doing the trick at making the decrease in calories fairly easy.  Sticking to 1250 calories was no problem.  I was really surprised at lunch when I actually couldn't finish all of the cabbage soup I had brought.  It was more filling than I had expected.  I saved some for an after-school snack which worked out well because I was not hungry when I got home.

However, even though I have not been hungry, I do miss my favorite foods--simple carbs and sweets.  All of which, of course, are not particularly healthy.  As crazy as this sounds, it is like my friends have gone away.  I have used food for comfort and enjoyment.  I've seriously got to work on finding these things in something other than food.  If I relapse as a food addict I know any weight I lose will come right back.  Anyone else have this kind of unhealthy relationship with food or am I just crazy?

I am looking forward to weighing in on Wednesday.  That's a feeling I have not had for awhile!  Off to the treadmill for my daily 20 minutes.
