Day 8

Never did get that sandwich. I weighed myself this morning and I still weigh 180 pounds. This is slightly disconcerting. I was so annoyed that I didn't eat breakfast. Total consumed today: one apple, teriyaki shrimp with rice and peas, one glass of juice, one minute maid pink lemonade.

I talked to my mom about my frustration. She told me that whenever she's gone on a diet it's taken a month of restricting and eating right before she saw any weight loss. I'm on the tail end of being sick, but it's still too hot out to exercise. I know this sounds lame, but I don't have air conditioning in my house and even at 8 at night it's still 90 degrees in my bedroom. There's no way I can go running or anything in this heat. Or rather, no way I will go running in this heat.
