Crummy

It seems like in the past couple days, I've been nothing but frustrated. I can't even pinpoint why. I just wake up in a crappy mood and everything gets under my skin. Too bad my horoscope for this week wasn't right, "You've been really stressed out but thanks to the cosmos, you will be relieved of a significant amount of stress this week." It started out that way. For one day.

Well. Weigh-in's are tomorrow and I'm not thrilled at all. If anything, I'm nervous. I lost 8.2 pounds in the first week and it's like now, I can't lose an eighth of a pound. I've been doing all of my strength training and cardio three times a week, I've been taking metabolism pills, drinking loads of water, quit drinking pop, and I'm staying in my recommended nutritional value range. Whatever I'm doing wrong is not obvious. Perhaps it's just the way it is. The weight loss in the first week motivates you for the second week and then the second week lets you down. No wonder so many people's diets fail. - Just for the record, I don't plan on being one of those people.

Just thought of something. They say that the more sodium you consume each day can make you retain water and ultimately keep the pounds. Perhaps my sodium intake should be kept track of so I can see if that's the issue...

Updates on my progress (or lack of) tomorrow.
