Day One of the New Diet Pill

Yesterday I started my new diet pill, Fenphedra. The directions instructed to take 2-3 pills daily, preferably as soon as you awake, 30 minutes before exercise and 30 min before lunch. I took one pill yesterday when I woke up. And whew - after about 20 minutes I was feeling a major surge of energy that really lasted almost all day. 

I went to the gym and did the latin dance class followed by Body Pump, and I found myself able to get through the classes without losing steam. I felt strong, and really energized. 

I came home and worked 5 hours, and then took Charlotte for a walk, and afterwards walked Saxon down to the playground and back. Usually after about 5 pm I am ready to call it a day, sit down and relax in the evening. But, yesterday I found myself just going and going. And the beauty of it - I never really felt hungry. I did eat my normal meals, and made sure to have a snack in between to keep my body going after so much exercise. However, I wasn't plagued by those thoughts of what might be calling my name in the refrigerator, as I sat at my desk. 

The things I read about this supplement also said that it had an ingredient in it that gives a feeling of elation. "Mood-elevating" qualities they called it. I did feel pretty damn good yesterday! So, I would have to agree with that. The best part - no jitters like you get with some pills that are loaded with caffeine. No nausea. No gazillion trips to the bathroom.

Overall, I am pretty happy with the supplement and how it made me feel. Now the real question is - does it work? That shall be discovered with time. I did buy a bathroom scale the other day, so in about a week's time I will weigh myself. Starting weight is 157. (cringe)
Keep your fingers crossed that next week, the numbers go down!
