the diet

I officially began my first diet ever, and it is going surprisingly well. The diet goes like this... I drink an agave/lime drink three times a day and take a cayenne capsule with it which works as a cleanse and also speeds up your metabolism. Morning and night you drink and herbal tea with senna. A friend just recently finished this, she did it for five days and lost seven pounds, and a coworker did it for a week and lost thirteen pounds and so far she has kept it off. I am on day two and have lost a little over two pounds. I thought I would be starving the whole time but I really haven't been that hungry and I have tons of energy, its great! I need to get rid of my nursing school stress weight, and it seems to be working :) Speaking of which- I just began my fourth semester yesterday and I am so excited, I am in the OB class and it is my favorite, I love it!!! I may have found my niche in nursing, we will see. Well thats all for now, I will let you know how the diet turns out. Wish me luck!

Good job!! Yeah, I've been dieting forever :) I'm only a couple pounds away from my pre-baby weight though--like 5 lbs.! But, to get to my "wedding weight, and basically the weight I have been FOREVER until about 2 years into my marriage," I'm gonna have to lose 15 lbs.... :( Maybe after I'm done nursing I'll try something like this--more drastic!
