Feeling a little better about not being totally starving and exhausted, but still physically weak which is lame.

However, I will prevail.

Also, my apartment is clean, which is a good place to start.

If there's ever a book you should read in your life, it's "Eat, Pray, Love" by Elizabeth Gilbert.

I loved it.

Okay so I think I'm starting to get a little better, I feel less ravenous, and I'm back to almost-normal amounts of sleep instead of sleeping constantly,

but I have noticed that my physical strength has gone down considerably, I was up to being able to do 30 pushups consecutively and now it kicks my ass just do 20,
and I just did TEN and had to stop, which is even lower than my starting test of 13 pushups,

so yeah my body is going through all kinds of craziness lately.

As much as I appreciate the comments on my last entry I don't think anyone realizes that I'm not depriving myself, I'm eating what I want, moderately, I'm eating healthily, I eat junk food when I want to, I'm exercising a regular amount,
and really when I was that hungry I was just LETTING myself eat whatever the hell I wanted because I have never experienced hunger like that before in my life.
I'm not one to deprive myself in the first place, so feeling that hungry was a completely new experience and not being able to get rid of it no matter what or how much I ate was so weird.

And by exhausted I don't mean oh I was so busy today and now I'm tired, I mean I sleep all night and wake up tired, I try to stay awake for a couple hours and then I'm back to the point that I could fall asleep in the street, I'm so damn tired.

There is just seriously something weird going on with me,
and now that I'm losing physical strength I'm actually really worried but I don't know what it is and I don't know if I should go to a doctor or what, but since the other symptoms (STARVING hungry and SO EXHAUSTED) have eased up a little bit maybe this weakening-of-muscles will ease up too?

I don't know.

But it sucks for my push-up plan, that's for sure.

Update: Did 150 pushups, which sounds more impressive than it is because I did a million sets and it took me forever.

I'm so hungry and tired lately that my goal has switched from losing weight to just not gaining weight.

Seriously. Ravenous and exhausted.
And really sick of it.

Edit: No I mean seriously exhausted like I sleep for 8-10 hours at night, wake up for a few hours, and am already tired again.

I feel like I could fall asleep right now, and there is NO WAY I will be able to stay awake until bedtime tonight.

I'll take a nap and then I'll be back in bed tonight.

I've been going to bed at like 6:30 - 7:00 lately too.

I don't know what's going on with me.

But the hunger is almost as severe as the exhaustion, I eat healthy, I'll eat a lot of healthy food, and I keep eating, and I think okay maybe I need some junk food maybe that will fill me up, so I'll eat ice cream or something, and I'm still hungry,
to the point that I can eat until I feel like I need to THROW UP and only then am I satisfied and that's not even a comfortable feeling at all, I just am so hungry.

It's ridiculous I don't know what's wrong with me right now.
