Whew!

It has certainly been a while, eh?

Well the good news is that I am down to 115!!! This is the lowest I have been in a while, getting below 120 was a challenge.  Anyway, this is my last semester of college and because of all the stuff I have to do, it hasn't left much time for eating.  Having my own apartment is also a perk because no one is there to make me eat or make me have tons of food in my fridge. 

For those who are curious,

I am eating 500 calories or less a day, usually around 300, but 500 is the max and I have been taking cortislim. These have been working really well for me because I am the kind of person that gets stressed out easily and often.  So this calms me down (because it decreases cortisol production) while at the same time shedding the pounds.  Since I began taking it about a week ago I have lost 7 pounds!

When this semester is over and the work load dies down I plan on starting to run regularly so this will help me to reach my goal even fast. A friend of mine trained for the Chicago Marathon and lost 30 pounds eating regularly and running, so I'm sure it will work if I stick to it and don't get weak.  I have heard hints that my boyfriend might propose next semester so I want to be in the best shape ever when he does .

Even though I have lost this much weight I just can't keep thinking about how much more I have to lose     and what a FAT ASS I still am.  My clothes fit a little differently and my body is showing a little more bone, but there is still a looooooong way to go (about 20 pounds) My goal is to be rid of these by Christmas AT THE LATEST!

well that's all for now... stay strong girls!

Although this fad diet isn't the healthiest among fad diets, it's certainly not the worst.  One of the big problems with the diet is that it doesn't provide a healthy eating pattern.  Gorging on one food item certainly isn't good for the old system, either.

Our suggestion is to incorporate some meal suggestions into your current diet.  Begin breakfast with a hearty meal.  That 1/2 grapefruit isn't going to last throughout your morning.
