I’m totally stealing Stacey’s format. Yoink.

I woke up with a headache. A head splitting “I’m going to die” migraine type headache coupled with scratchy, itchy eyes. I thought about not starting the injections but decided I was being a wuss. I got up, showered, took two Advil, a vitamin, a claratin and an injection. After all the hype the shot itself was almost a let down. Not terribly difficult.

Throughout the day I noticed that I felt sort of giddy/anxious. I don’t know whether to attribute that to the HCG, the Advil, the Claratin or the built up anxiety from having to take a shot. Regardless that feeling tapered off in the evening.

What I ate:

Seriously, what didn’t I eat? 🙂

Lunch: 1 oz of Dubliner with 1 serving of multi-grain crackers and a handful of dried dates

Snack: a chocolate brownie and a glass of milk
