Day 5 .....the beginning

I know it's only morning or really by now mid day but I'm sharing already because I'm happy to say I feel like me again!  Yes I took my 'stupid' pills last night out of necessity (at least temporarily) but....I woke up this morning in a very pleasant mood which has not been the norm for several months and even though I'm pushing thru the neck pain I can still do so with a smile on my face and feel a perk in my step and I feel like that's because I'm feeling healthier every day.  I don't feel as moody today as I have been in weeks past and I hope that each day continues to get better.  Weight loss as of this morning is at 9lbs which is a lot for 5 days so that may begin to slow down some but remember I had a stomach bug for a few days which accounts for some of it but not all.  I don't want to lose the weight too fast because I know from previous personal history that it just ends up coming right back + more.  I'm committed to this for life to make myself and my family healthy!  I'm just excited to feel like myself again and not so sluggish and moody!!  It was actually not so bad waking up this morning :)
