So, I have been doing a 500 calorie a day diet. It sucks. Yes, I have lost 18 pounds in 13 days, but I am so hungry. And I am starting to cheat hear and there. I need to be stronger, but it is so hard. I think what is the harm in a bite of this or a bite of that. Right? But what happens when all the "bites" add up? I feel great. My pants are hanging off me, and my butt is shrinking, but how long can I keep it up? I have a reunion coming up, and I want everyone to say WOW! So, I will do better and try harder. Bye for now.
