I believe in less than a week I've lost 2-3 lb. I've rediscovered an interesting sensation: "hunger".

If I can get to 175, I'll be something fierce, lean, and mean.

Not only would I discover "Hunger", but my co-workers would discover the word "Grumpy".

I remember about 4 or 5 years ago, a co-worker of mine came to work just as grumpy as could be for several days straight. Really, she was just pissed off at the world. Upon further inquiry, it turned out she had just started the Body 4 Life diet, which effectively eliminated everything from her diet that she enjoyed.

Ahhhhh, it all makes sense now. I would feel the same way if I were eating a hamburger patty for breakfast instead of a nice bowl of Marshmellow Mateys.
