Okay, so today I started Hydroxycut. So far I think I have done very well according to what I am suppose to do. For breakfast I had 2 eggs with onions and peppers with a little bit of cheese with 2 sausage patties. Lunch I had Atkins frozen meal. And dinner I made chicken breast with taco seasoning with little bit of salsa, sour cream and cheese with broccoli and cheese. Dinner sure did fill me up. And as of now I have had 8 cups of water.

My exercise consisted of 60 mins on the elliptical burning 620 cals. I did a few back exercises. I injured my thumb over the weekend, not sure how. But I wanted to stay away from using it. I am trying to rest it. Yesterday evening it felt back to normal. Then, I woke up this morning and it was throbbing in pain.

So, I want to keep my calories around 1200 a day. But, from working out I burned a little over 600. I tried reading about how many calories I need to be eating a burning to lose 2lbs a week. Welp! I am confused about it. I am also unclear on how much fat I need to be eating since my carbs are so low. but, today I had 53g of fat- my cholesterol went over by 850! according to myfitness pal, also my sodium was way too much I went over 929. My carbs were 29. I'd like to keep it between 20-25, but with taking the pill I think I should eat a little bit more. And my protein was 105g.

I know I am not doing everything right, clearly. This is a learning process for me. If you have any advice feel free to share! As this site is pretty much all of my support. I spend most of the day by myself, so I spend most my time reading stuff online when I am not doing my school work. I want to do this right. And I think that this site is finally going to make it happen. :) Other than all that, my day has been alright. Kinda boring since I don't want to do much because of my thumb. But it was a good day :)

So, basically what I have been doing is eating low carb. So I have been researching the Atkins diet and I think it is my best bet. Along with this I found an incredibly awesome deal on Groupon. Hydroxycut 2 bottle of 72 count for 19 bucks. So, I decided that when the shipment came in I would take that along with the diet and my normal exercise routine that I do. But I was never fully on a low carb diet but I did cut down a lot. But since my order finally came in today I can "officially" start this tomorrow. My weight hasn't changed at all since my last weigh in which is a shocker since Easter was Sunday. I am happy about that. I plan on hitting the gym 6 days a week starting with this pills and the diet. Hopefully I can see faster results.

When we went an Easter party on Saturday everyone commented on how my boyfriend had lost so much weight they didn't even recognize him, it made me feel like a failure. They did say the could notice a little bit of a difference. That isn't good enough for me. I want the same reaction that he gets. It kind of makes me jealous that he does so great and I don't. He has lost over 25 pounds. While I am still stuck at 9 pounds.

But, I need to put myself in a better mind set or I will fail. I do not want to do that. So My goal is to lose about 15lbs before June 28th. On that date is a 4th of July party that I attend every year. I want to go and be stunning. I want to lose enough weight that it is very noticeable.

I need to keep coming back to this site. Although I don't really talk to anyone on here. I just know that all of you know what I am feeling and what I mean when I feel defeated. I will just keep entering my weight and journal entries and I hope (cross fingers) that this will work. Because, if it doesn't I think I will give up. I don't want to give up I want to do this. More than anything. And to top this all off I am on my last course for school. I need to finish so I can have a stable good income where I can live comfortably and not pay check to pay check. I feel overwhelmed sometimes with all this. But, I know I can do this. So many other people already have. I just need to get my butt moving and do it already.
