Operation Don't Be Fat Day 2

10/14/2009
Day 2 of 182

Today I woke up around 3:00 a.m. and could not get back to sleep, so I stayed in bed, attempting to sleep for about three hours and finally got my ass out of bed at 6:00 a.m. The hunger pangs are unbearable! I USED to be one of those people who never ate breakfast. I just never had the urge nor the appetite, but as my eating habits have changed over the past month or so, I find myself so ready to eat that it isn't even funny.
In the beginning (yesterday) I vowed that I would only weigh myself every three days and/or the end of each week. I have found myself to be scale obsessed and weighed myself even though I knew that I shouldn't.
I should have obeyed my instincts BECAUSE I weighed .5 lbs more than yesterday which made me feel like total shit.
I ate my breakfast at 7:00 a.m. and prepared myself for my daily exercise.
