and I’ve lost 4 pounds!

And let me tell ya: it is AWESOME to see such instant results but I’M SO FREAKING TIRED OF MEAT AND CHEESE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

bleh.

This is taking forever!

I emailed my future supervisor and mentioned that HR hasn’t contacted me but I’m assuming I should put in my two weeks at my current job. And they said I should WAIT. !!! There is a ton of paperwork that needs to be signed so nothing is officially done until its all finished. (I’m actually transfering from one department to another and this is one of the four jobs that I have.)

Well, good things come to those who wait.

I’ve already got the position so….

Yep- I started the Atkins diet on Monday along with not drinking and let me tell you- the first two days, I barely got off the couch. Day Three- morning was H~LL!!! I had no energy – pure fatigue. Then about afternoon time I got energy and it has totally sustained! I’ve lost 3.5 pounds already! Dang!

What does suck is, on this diet, the book tells you what liquors DON’T have carbs…. GRRRR But since I can’t drink 99 Bananas (the sugar flavoring is carbs) ... I done ok. I tried a drink with Bacardi and Club Soda- but yeah, reread that- Bacardi and Club Soda… gag! So I couldn’t even finish it and technically I am not supposed to have any alcohol in the first two weeks of the diet.

I think refocusing my attempt at my goal is making a world of difference. The more I was concentrating on ‘not drinking’ the more I thought about ‘drinking’. But since I have incorporated it into another goal, it seems to be more successful.

I am concerned that once this diet creates more and more positive results, I’ll think I get get by with ‘just having one’ and blowing it all. But it hasn’t happened yet and it’s a 50/50 shot so I’ll root for the positive one!

That’s all for now.
