It's a lot of measuring and planning for me, but it looks like this is what I need to do right now. Well, at least until I get in to see the doctor and get my levels tested.

So far, I feel good. I have a slight headache every now and then. On day 4 of eating this way I felt a little light headed/dizzy. I believe it is beacause I needed to eat at 6:00pm and it was already 6:30pm. As soon as I got meal #5 in me I started to feel fine again.

Btw, 2 lbs down this week. Healthy eating is the key. Well, that and exercise. I've exercised everyday this week for at least 30 minutes each time. My legs are a bit sore, but that's fine with me as long as I am going in the right direction! Which is down...Lol.

So, now it is time to snack on meal #4 and head home to watch the Wichita State University Shockers play in the 2nd round of the 2012 NCAA tournament!! Go Shox!!!
