(Very late publish - initially drafted July 2020)
Another round of something new... on this journey -
I was considering Qsymia but divine intervention may have saved me from it - wound up on Phentermine and Topamax which is bonafide Qsymia. Strangest thing though - I have NEVER been tired on phentermine and yet I'm yawning at 6pm and they were right about the Topamax making diet soda taste strange if not flat out nasty - I live for diet coke and coke zero. Just had a swig and it is downright awful I mean intolerable...which was not a bad thing.
Can't lie I wasn't hungry today, but I did eat out of boredom. I was actually hungry around 5pm and ate more calories than called for so I may be done eating for the day but I'm now officially tired and it's not a food coma tired, it's legit I could go to sleep right now tired.
So I'll need to monitor this - hence why I came straight to the blogger to document and I dropped entries in MFP as a reminder of how many calories I consumed and what they were.
I did not even take the 2nd half of the phentermine which when I remembered it was almost 5pm I would never take it that late I'd be all sorts of wired the rest of the day but I've also never been this sleepy either.
I didn't do that great of a job intermittent fasting either. My first meal was at 10 so I guess if I'm trying to be done eating now then I successfully ate all my calories in an 8-hour window then I can eat again tomorrow by 10 am. Will see how that goes. That could conceivably work but not ready to commit just yet.
My birthday is exactly 3 weeks from tomorrow was hoping I would have had at least a month under my belt with the IF and new protocol but allegedly it takes 3 weeks to form a habit, I've proven that is NOT true, but we will see, but more importantly, I will try hard to maintain the window in which I eat - definitely helps if I'm not hungry - DUH! said the very full and sleepy person :)
I missed today's starting weight though - boo! Last I checked which was maybe Saturday I was 201.6 which is a miracle (I feel like I'm 250).
Will keep you posted.
