I’ve probably spent $80 on vitamins that make you lose weight (huge friggin waste!). I’m so deprived of sugar and carbs that I’m soooo cranky all the time and very cold. It feels like having the flu. Well I’ve been at it for almost three weeks now and I stopped weighing myself after week one because the scale wasn’t budging. When I saw I hadn’t lost a pound I slammed my scale onto the floor and had a fit. On a positive note, I haven’t purged since starting this. But this crap is driving me nuts. Just had to vent!
And I hope I don’t give anyone ideas... this diet makes you feel like garbage!

I’ve been on that diet before and it is horrible. I felt very tired and likenif I had the flu for about a week or so. It’s not easy. Why put yourself through this diet if you recognize that you don’t need to lose weight. Can you see I help through counseling or a nutritionist? I would suggest that before continuing with this self torture.
