Day 2, a smidge late..

So I got into bed last night with my son. It was movie night and get to sleep with Mom night, and I realized I had forgotten to write to my blog! Whoops! Also I was so cozy snuggled up with him, I couldn't interrupt that. So fail number one! But I justified it that now I can write about yesterday in full, this morning.

Yesterday was a normal day, although I had a faint headache all day and by 1pm I was feeling pretty tired/relaxed and stayed on the couch until 3pm! I wasn't super hungry just tired. I also am bummed because this plugged nose business that started last Sunday is still here and I feel like it's a faint sinus infection. This of course gives me a false sense of "sinus infection" or "symptoms" of my big changes here. I'm going to go with sinus infection for now, because other than the pressure in my face/nose and minor fatigue - which are all present for me during a sinus infection, I feel totally fine and normal. I'm thankfully not starving, yet. The herbs are awful in taste, but I assure myself I've had worse! I certainly missed tasting/eating some of the tasty treats my kids had yesterday, but again I tell myself I will have it again someday soon.

I got his in the face on two different occasions last week which I should also mention. This has also created a sense of pressure/pain in my face. One was a blonde moment on my part, I slipped while trying to suck up a tennis ball in this tennis ball gun we have for the dogs and it slammed back and hit me right in the forehead/right brow area. OUCH! The next day I got hit in the face with a pickle ball, and it had to have been traveling pretty fast because the bridge of my nose is still super tender.

Lastly - At pickle ball last night someone said my face looked thinner already! I though gosh it's only been a day but maybe all the water I'm drinking is flushing me out! Today I stepped on the scale and am down exactly 5 pounds already! I am happy about that, even if it is just water! I do feel just fine so for (minus my sinus pressure) but was surprised about the water weight. I actually haven't had a BM since I started yet so....must be all water so far! I also up my dose on my herbs today to twice per day. Until tonight.....I hope! Haha
