It'll be a close one
Well, I've got about a week left before I wanted to hit my first gw... well, calling it my "first" is like saying I'm a virgin every time I date someone new... but on this "round" it is again my first.
I just weighed at 177lbs. So I've got roughly 7 days to lose 7lbs to hit my gw1 of 170. I'm very much aware that that is asking quite a lot, and I really should be exercising if I hope to accomplish that. But it would certainly be nice.
I've been doing very well though. I don't know if it is the appetite suppressants that are helping me so much to maintain control, but I haven't gone over 1000cals in a day for a while now, and I've been averaging 400-700 most days. I've always been so jealous of others who can pull off counts like that, and I'm very grateful to be accomplishing that now.
A bad thing during all of this however, is the insomnia. I'm SO tired, but can't sleep for more than an hour at a time. I wake up and am very restless. It's quite annoying. And feels a little like a slap in the face since I stopped the meds that had the side effect of weight gain, but unfortunately, those were the ones that helped my sleep. :/ But I guess it's just one of the sacrifices to make. I just wish it didn't hinder my motivation to exercise.
