1 week in

The scale this morning would give me three different sets of numbers no matter how many times I stepped on it. So I'm taking the high number and that would put me at 7.4lb loss, if I take the low number that puts me at an 8.6lb loss. That's great for my first week!

I made it a week with no pop. I am taking water pills to help with my ankle's swelling from the sodium. As soon as I adjust to the water pills I'm sure the loss won't be so high. Darn! But it's ok. I'd rather lose than gain.

Today I'm having spells of my ears ringing and some dizziness. Not sure what's causing that. I know my mom has those spells but she's diabetic. I'm on this weight loss plan so that I don't have to take pills or shots. She is on 2 shots a day. Dad has high blood pressure so there is another reason. Plus I have not had any heartburn at all since I started the diet. Normally I suffer from that several nights a week. Outside of the ears and dizziness today I've felt pretty good.
