I Lost Weight, But ...

Cheese sticks, fried pickles, Thai food, Chinese, pizza, steak ... I can't stop thinking about food!

Today was the 24 hour Hollywood Diet and let me tell you, I don't know how girls are anorexic. I mean yesterday you couldn't pay me to eat something unhealthy and this morning, I woke up tasting tacos in my mouth! I was so hungry the second I woke up, but I knew it was because I couldn't eat all day!

Now you guys are going to laugh at me because up until 4:30 this afternoon, not only did I think I couldn't eat food, I thought I could drink water either! Reading that and saying it out loud makes me realize how dumb that sounds, but I did!

I didn't actually get the "this drink is going to make you fit into your skinny girl jeans" drink until about 1 this afternoon. I found the diet drink at CVS and wasn't too happy to see the orange juice looking thing was $20. CHEESE AND CRACKERS BATMAN! (Oh dear Lord cheese and crackers sound PHENOMENAL right now.) Twenty bucks to lose five pounds in 24 hours, I don't know if I can live with that. I guess I have to since I already paid with my mom's check. Whoops sorry mom, I was only suppose to pick up grandma's medicine, but HEY I didn't know CVS would have my koolaid for fat kids! (Love you momma!)

The Hollywood Diet says you're suppose to take four ounces of the juice and four ounces of water and mix them together to make the perfect skinny girl cocktail. I had to make three of these watered down OJ's and, "finish each one of them within four hours.". How would it take me any longer than four hours to finish an eight ounce drink, I don't know? I'm starving and YES I'll say it, I WANT SOMETHING IN MY MOUTH! (PG-13 Get your mind out of the gutter!) Now what I didn't realize until 4 this afternoon was that I am also suppose to have eight glasses of water today. I'll blame that one on the eye infection I'm currently battling.

Hold on, let me sip on my skinny bitch drink for a second.

It actually doesn't taste that bad.

Anyway, here's what I discovered today. Within three hours of starting this diet I had already lost ONE POUND. Not too shabby, hun. I will weigh myself again tomorrow morning and who wants to bet by the time tomorrow is over I gain all that weight back!

What the happy juice doesn't talk about on the advertisement is the fact that I've been tired all day today. Plus, I was really cranky while nanny. Maybe it was the little boy who always calls me fat? Maybe it was me? I'll leave that one for someone else to decide. It didn't help when the 9 year old girl asked for NACHOS as her after school snack. Just rub it in tiny 9 year old. What's your BMI ... yeah, didn't think so.

Wrapping this day up, I've had a headache, I'm tired, and I can't stop thinking about food. Hopefully I lose 5 pounds like I'm suppose to. I'm going to go walk and hopefully forget about food. I mean I was craving Lonestar Steak House today ... I'VE NEVER BEEN TO LONESTAR STEAK HOUSE. It's all about will-power people!
