It's 10am on Friday morning and I am feeling better. This morning started off awful...both of my daughter'a had dentist appointments which we were late too because my six year old didn't like the outfit she was wearing. Our appointment was at 9am so we got up at 7am with plenty of time to eat breakfast and get ready. At 8:30 I was getting the kids ready to get in the car and that is when my six year old decided to have a melt down about the pants she was wearing. I told her to hurry up and put new pants on but, according to her, she couldn't find any pants she liked (keep in mind, this is after I spent $300 on new clothes for her a week ago). I was finally able to convince her to wear her new pink skirt but by the time we left it was already 9am. Thankfully the dentist didn't seem to mind that we were ten minutes late, but it still bothered me and I still felt frazzled.
The actual dental appointment went a lot better than expected. We thought they were going to pull teeth (from my younger daughter) but it turns out they didn't need to. Both of my kids did extremely well and I left the appointment feeling very proud of them. The day started looking up from there.
I had to come back home to get the kid's ready for school (which is where we are now) and I remembered today was Friday...the day I start Alli!! I am nervous and excited. I am nervous about possible side effects and excited to possibly speed up this weight loss. My weight today was 174.2 which is a two pound gain from yesterday. It must be water retention or something because I don't see how it's possible to lose six pounds one day and gain two the day after that.
I wasn't able to make it to the gym yesterday which was a bummer but I'm also aware that that's going to happen now again. When you are a single mom and a small business owner, it's hard enough to find time to go to the gym, once in a while shit is going to happen.
I'm now on my way to my office. Will check in later. xoxo
